Also called Fast Ethernet, 100BaseT burns rubber compared to its younger, venerable 10BaseT sibling.
The basic data transfer speed for the Ethernet networking standard is 10 megabits per second, or 10 Mb/s. 100BaseT is capable of transmitting data between machines on a network at 100 Mb/s. That's 4 albums' worth of MP3 files per second. Whenever you see "10/100" on a router, switch or hub package, it means it's capable of doing either speed: make sure to get one that can handle 100BaseT.
Bear in mind that although you can send data between machines that fast, your Internet connection is usually a lot slower, especially if you're on a cable, DSL or satellite connection, and absolutely if you are on a dial up modem. So, although you can drop a file across your local area network in a blink, you'll be waiting and waiting for that same file to come across a much slower net connection.

After a 30 year career on radio in markets from New York to San Francisco to satellite and network, David H. Lawrence XVII decided to make a change. He hung up his headphones and retired from hosting 3 network/satellite radio shows to head to Los Angeles, to concentrate solely on acting in front of the camera.
Lili VonSchtupp* needed a fresh start. She moved to Washington DC and got her dream job. "I did affiliate relations for Online Tonight with David Lawrence. I slowly worked my way into the producer's chair by impressing David with my assets. (not those assets), my ability to make a CAT5 cable Ethernet cable, type (those of you in the chat room-shut up!) and work a phone system.
