[QUOTE="Munkee6002, post: 1349896, member: 101556"] Yes, the iMac is the only computer involved. As for streaming content on the PS3, I am using the video services that are built into it (ie BBC iPlayer, 4OD, Etc), but am experiencing some pauses during playback of high definition content. Hoping a wired connection will sort it, as I have an 8-9Mb broadband connection at home. In that case, would a gigabit switch not be needed? I thought that it would provide gigabit speeds to devices that supported it? Or is it just assuming I stream from the Mac to the PS3? Would the streaming services on the PS3 and general internet streaming on the iMac not benefit from using a gigabit switch? Many thanks for your advice, Munkee [/QUOTE]
