As someone who grew up with 10Base2 and 10BaseT, and thought 100Mbps was amazing - it still surprises me every time I'm reminded how slow it is now. I buried a cat6 cable out to my wife's studio and due to (I assume) some grounding issues it only syncs at 100Mbps - it works for general browsing etc., but every time we try to move some data it's arggghhh.
Fast ethernet ain’t so fast these days
