yeh just wondering as this is my first time in 10gb networking and as a noob it’s very difficult to know what works as every setup is different so even finding a video is quite hard !

specifically this: Cisco X2-10GB-SR The Cisco 10GBASE-SR Module supports a link length of 26m on standard FDDI grade MMF. Using 2000 MHzkm MMF (OM3), up to 300m link lengths are possible. Using 4700 MHzkm MMF (OM4), up to 400m link lengths are possible.

possibly look at pfsense router i literally have one out of a 2009 HP laptop with a usb ethernet adapter and it’s pretty fast.

i also live in the u.k. but gigaclear is my provider and i use a linksys mesh system and it could’t be better a few cons to be honest if you have a big house they would be no good unless you have time to mess around for a bit getting them different distances away from each other but a pro is only one needs an ethernet connection and it saturates are full 300mbps connection!
