What kind of Ethernet card should I have for ResNet?

ResNet Frequently Asked Questions
Most of the ResNet network currently supports Ethernet at 10 Mbps speeds using unshielded twisted pair (UTP) wiring, also known as 10BASE-T. Most Ethernet cards now support at least 100 Mbps Ethernet as well 10 Mbps. This is generally referred to as 10/100 BASE-T. 100 Mbps Ethernet service is available on ResNet in a limited number of residence halls (Court, Mews, and Low Rise #8).

Is there a particular type of Gigabit Ethernet card I should purchase?

ResNet Frequently Asked Questions
We would recommend purchasing a 10/100/1000 Ethernet card -- one which will also support slower speed networking, besides just Gigabit Ethernet. Currently, Gigabit service is available only in the new West Campus residence halls. If you move to another residence hall or move off campus and wish to use a traditional cable modem or DSL service, you will want to make sure that your Ethernet card will support slower network speeds.

If I connect my Core card to Ethernet, can I FTP to the PBX to do administration?

Black Box Resale Services: Frequently Asked Questions
No. There is no FTP daemon running in the PBX. Nortel wants you to buy Meridian Administration Terminal or its successor, Optivity Telephony Manager, for this. If you connect the PBX to your Ethernet LAN, be sure to block broadcast messages from reaching the PBX by using a router. A router seems to be the only acceptable way to block those nasty broadcast messages that can take your PBX completely out of service. It sounds as if you are receiving traffic reports through your modem connection.

RCF Frequently Asked Questions
You can't. Private traffic is just what it says it is: private. It must not be allowed on the public Internet, since there's no way a packet sent to a private IP will ever arrive. It just pollutes the net. You should buy yourself a second ethernet card.

Should I buy a 100mbps Ethernet card?

NYU > ITS > Help & Support > FAQs & Tutoria...
Your ResNet connection will be at 10mbps (10 million bits per second) for the duration of your NYU career. If you have personal reasons to get the faster card, go ahead. However, you will never be able to utilize its increased bandwidth capability on ResNet. Most 100mbps cards also support 10mbps (they're usually designated 10/100mbps).
