Looking to get some more local network performance - currently have gigabit through switch/router (netgear r7000 if that makes any difference).

 

My unraid machine is an old x79 board with dual lan ports. My main rig only has one lan port, but has (unused) wifi. 

 

Is there any way that i could team the wired/wireless connections to the same switch/router to get some more throughput to the server? i'd rather not buy another lan card and fish another cable through the walls if possible.

I've read around that when you're connected to both on w10 it'll just choose the better of the two, but if there's some weird setting i can change to get them to team, that'd be pretty nice

 

Thanks folks!

It is possible with two internet links, but not just 2 ways of communication (ethernet + wifi wont do anything maybe more stability but not speed)

ah, okay - i was hoping there was a way sort of like running two ethernet cables. Thanks!
