Gigabit LAN connection

I am now connected with a gigabit connection to my ISP's LAN, that has around 1 thousand users in our area. 271mbit/s is the average I get (usually it is from 250 to 310). The signal goes 50m over copper Ethernet cat5e cable to a D-Link switch and then hops to a 24port gigabit switch over some more 100 metres of Cat5e cabling and then goes over a fiber connection to a 8port gigabit switch before arriving at the Debian-based server.

Almost 6 and almost 45

I'm talking about number that are unusual for a PC otherwise used as a workstation, gaming machine and development environment.

That is 44 days 20 hours of uptime and almost 6 terabytes of uploaded traffic. Vista x64 is a lot more stable than Windows XP and a LOT more stable than XP Pro x64. That is what I can say from my experience using it. But reboot are still a very needed thing. Kaspersky Internet Security, Windows Update and a couple of programs were begging me 20 days in a row to reboot. I just didn't feel like it.

Btw, I have reached another psychological range - 1 TB on my FTP.
