I bought the pluggable adapter but I get faster speeds on my 5Ghz Wi-Fi. :\

LOL

TwitchFresh thanks

For 150 Dollars

Not Rojai I would buy that, better than buying an extra dock as it is now.

I think the cooling unit would be the selling point tbh

Not Rojai it does seem to get pretty warm in the dock, cooling would definitely be the selling point for me.

While they're at it, I'd re-design the whole thing. The first thing is obviously adding a fan, then, moving the circuit board/USB3/power/hdmi away/up to stop blocking one of the rear vents. Add softer lining material for the insertion points. At a push, upgrade the USB3 dock port to be the high-end one that allows pci-e, then, add an X1 gpu inside the dock for Sli. They could also upgrade output to 4k (even if it is upscale) while they're at it. On the firmware side, we need external storage drive support as well as overclock option for "Pro-dock" users.

Careful. You'll upset the locals.

Implying that Nintendo is selling these

That is nothing new Sony and Microsoft do it too.

It makes money, that's the excuse.

Its nintendo, im used to it by now

Xavier Roberts is usb 3.0 better than 2.0 for ping?

I can't get it to work with a generic adapter on version 9.2.0.

Their line of arcade sticks are usually pretty good. But yeah, they do sell a lot of overpriced not-so-great accessories.

It'll not be useless but will probably be overpriced

When there's a faster USB3 version for half the price, then for all intent and purpose... it's pretty useless.

The reason why they are 'overpriced' is because it has the actually Nintendo brand which means it will work, and for average consumers that's what they care about. They know that if they buy a Nintendo branded adapter or controller or anything that it will work the way it's intended. That convenience is why they can price units higher then generic ones.

+JSnacko That's not always true. I bought a Hori Battle Pad for the Wii U to play Smash Bros., but it had some major issues with the control sticks returning to neutral position. It seems like it might be hit-or-miss sometimes with their products.

What brand of adapter did you get?

Lycon Xero I'm in agreement with you. They'll go X2, and if I had to guess they'll add another gig or 2 of ram.

Lycon Xero I really doubt it. The millions of people that own Switched would be salty. I just don't see them doing a PS4 Pro or Scorpio style upgrade.

enjoi0555 well nintendo did make the new 3ds

mdmills if they go X2 in a new revision it'll be for battery reasons not performance. I'm willing to bet that it'll run identically to the original switch with 2 or 3 extra hours of battery life.

I have seen things. The patents are real. There exists a GPU bridge to the dock. It's the "suplemental computing device" from the patents. You will be able to plug any GPU to that sucker.

Andrew Ames Which wifi connection type are you using? YMMV, but the Switch does support 5GHz, and I've been getting really good speeds while operating 5GHz N and AC (at least, as long as the modem itself isn't crapping out >_>).

I've tried both 2.4 GHz and 5 GHz. I retested all three connection types (wired, 2.4 and 5 GHz) before replying and now I'm getting wildly inconsistent results. When I tested before one weird thing is that the NAT Type would change from test to test. I've never had an issue with games/systems detecting this router as having anything but an open NAT type. When I tested again just before typing this I found that now my NAT type is always shown as 'A' and wireless speeds are generally better. However, the test results are all over the place. Let's get upload out of the way since I already have a headache. Upload speeds were all over. Typically between 4 and 9 Mbps on 2.4 and 5 GHz even 4ft from the router with line of sight. Wired wasn't significantly better. Using my OnePlus One (OPO) as a point of comparison, I got around 13 Mbps up in my bedroom which is about 25 ft away from the router, through two walls. When testing a wired PC I get around 13 up as well. Download Speeds, given in range for Switch due to inconsistent results (OnePlus One using speedtest.net): *2.4 GHz, 4 ft from router* Switch - *10 - 32 Mbps* OPO - *50 Mbps* *2.4 GHz, 25 ft from router, through two walls* Switch - *0 - 25 Mbps* (0 because sometimes connecting at this distance took several attempts or it would seem to connect but it would be unusably slow and connections would time out. When it worked it worked well enough though) OPO - *45 Mbps* *5 GHz, 4 ft from router* Switch - *17 - 30 Mbps* OPO - *89 Mbps* *5 GHz, 25 ft from router, through two walls* Switch - *24 - 39 Mbps* (WTF, why is it faster on a 5 Ghz network when farther away?!) OPO - *85 Mbps* *Wired* Switch - *32 - 35 Mbps* (WTF, why so slow? One time it tested at 76.5 Mbps. Still, way slower than it should be) Any PC on my network - *122 Mbps* Using a DNS emulator, I loaded up fast.com in the Switch's web browser and did many speed tests on all connection types. The test results were still inconsistent but they weren't out of range compared to the speed test in the Switch's settings as outlined above. I had two Switch's for a short time and my other Switch had similar results on the 2..4 GHz network as the one that I've kept. I might test my roommate's later but I think that the Switch's networking drivers are borked. Is anybody getting their full bandwidth out of the Switch? Saying you get X Mbps down/up isn't that useful without knowing how much you get from a wired PC on your network and how the Switch tests compare to other wireless devices tested from the same location as the Switch.

I hope you all know that routers also use a ability that balances out bandwidth ether from wireless to wired. This means if your PC is doing something, or someone else,etc the bandwidth of the other device when testing will drop in performance. The more devices there are. the more decrease each will get to balance act the devices to give a natural flow of internet access. Only times when you download will you see a heavier load, but it differs from the demand.

The network card in the switch is probs crap like the ps4 always limits your speeds

No. When you get a 'Fast' ethernet 10/100 you'll never see 100mbps on those. their normally halfed of performance. Not to mention some may run on half duplex vs full, but they don't tell you this when you buy them. Same goes for 10/100/1000. It may run at half (500mbps) and that i still mainly depending on how distance you are, how many connections you have, etc. And that's direct wire. Lets not forget we do have AC to Ethernet outlets now that also reduce half performance of ethernet band. PS4 limits it's bandwidith around 20-40mbps. Seeing nintendo have byond 50 is better then Sony's PS3 and PS4 systems net. But lets not forget that most consoles barely use 5-20mbps for online play. So anywhere beyond such is more then great. Even for when people are hosting a game room like in COD. anyone having 10mbps normally becomes the host for it's good internet. Now it being stable differs. And some consoles will have less mbps income to keep a more stable connection. So even tho the PS4 only reads 20-40mbps even tho you have 200mbps+ this means it'll have a stable flow of 20-40 vs dipping all the time.

lowkey better then my wifi and im jealous

slumpypancake lmao

Now I don't feel so bad about my 4mbps internet connection

5mps download, .5mps upload, and around 80 to 90 ping. I'm just barely on the edge where I can play competitively online.

Mine is only SLIGTHLY beter Like 1.5 download, .2 upload

It seems, this USB 3.0 to RJ45 Adapter from ANKER doesn't work for the Switch (at least right now). When connected to the USB 3.0 port of the dock, the adapter starts blinking and exchanges data according to the LEDs, but the Switch itself cannot connect to the internet successfully. And yes, that same LAN cable works for my SteamLink next to my Switch, so that one isn't the problem. I also tried the tips you gave in your video to turn off the Switch (several times) and then put it back to the dock. I tried everything I could think of, so I guess, this ANKER adapter just isn't supported.

I've got 3.0 adapter and it doesn't connect my Switch(((

Exactly! This test is completely useless because he's not actually doing a benchmark on the thing he thinks he is. What he's benchmarking is Nintendo's servers not the adaptors themselves. I have an official Nintendo LAN adaptor from the original Wii. If I plug it into a PC I can easily get 95Mbps using iperf.

Speedtest isn't necessarily reliable either because for all we know the browser itself is slowing it down. The only way to test network speed properly would be to transfer a file over your local network. Which is something Nintendo won't allow you to do. Well, until a game with download play comes out. But in any case, based on teardowns the Switch has a dual-band AC1200 radio. So in theory it should be getting ~300Mbps after taking into account funky WiFi marketing maths. Which isn't that bad at all especially when compared to the Wii U (30Mbps). LAN adaptors? They're pretty much all going to be either 100Mbps or 1Gbps. Either way, the reason you'd want a LAN adaptor isn't for download speeds. The main advantage of a wired connection is that it doesn't suffer from ping spikes in the same way a wireless connection can. It also doesn't have issues with range or interference. Speed isn't the reason a wired connection is better. For a game console at least.

I just tested with my Switch on WiFi and then on the knock-off Wii ethernet adapter I have. I got anywhere between 27-37Mbit down,, 10 - 12Mbit up. (on a connection capable of 76Mbit Down 18Mbit Up) Basically, the results were within a margin of error to each other as I was able to achieve the fastest speed inconsistently on Wired and Wireless.

You skipped the stats for wired ping results, from your numbers... wireless: 6.6av, 20.6stdev wired: 1.25av, 1.16stev As you said, wireless is probably fine for most people. But the issue with wireless is mostly that difference in pings. Not necessarily the average but the variation. The occasional packet on wireless can be 100ms+ which in games can be pretty significant if you're unlucky enough for it to happen during a critical frame in a fighting game or something. Ideally you want the link between you and the server to be

nonsence. usb has its datalimitation speed. 48Mb (times 7, thats 256mb/ps)

@@louisjeweet3531 Thanks for replying

Is it 2.0 or 3.0?

Wireless connections are the norm these days, but at least they included an option for a wired version if you want it. That's why instead of increasing the Switch's price point, the could add an accessory that was optional.

Ima be honest, most people PERIOD don't give a crap about having wired connections, in fact most actively avoid them. The fact the Switch can't seamlessly "switch" with a wired connection is a problem. Only super hardcore ppl or those with crap wireless will wire up.

Jaxon Holden well you are full of crap. most people that play online games, do care. beside that, i dont want to download a 32gb game with a 65mbps (if lucky) connection. i have 300mbps internet, i always use a wired connection for digital downloads. dumb fucking decission from nintendo

Guy with Peugot in his nickname commenting on quality and performance. Beautiful.

Nintendo is pulling a Apple

I bought 2 of the USB 3.0. One for me and one for my brother. His works great but mines ran slower then the WiFi.

delaorden From my own experience with cheap USB ethernet adapters, there is no noticeable difference. The Switch is bottlenecking these.

Im pretty shure about that but its worth testing. In fact a better test would be to place the ethernet adapter on the Switch and ping it from a lan connected pc from the same network. That would be a more significant test

There is also a flaw with this video as he doesn't mention if he did multiple tests. The difference in speed between the adapters is meaningless unless he repeated each test several times, as with it not ever maxing his connection its clearly bottlenecking on the console or Nintendos servers so WOULD vary from test to test even with the same adapter.

Alex Atkin I'm guessing there's a potential bottleneck in communicating with Nintendo's servers when comparing with the Speedtest results. They test by connecting to the nearest server; if you select a distant or overseas server, speeds almost always suffer. I've seen similar things happen with my other consoles not fully utilizing all available speeds (avg. 100Mbps vs. +250Mbps available, though will sometimes jump to full speed), and even my laptop on occasion.

Mine is half of that

Im late af, but afaik 2.4ghz should be used. Also afaik the switch doesnt even support usb3 properly. So while you may get better bandwith with the 3.0 connector. Its not making use of its potential at all. If you have a good router capable of delivering 50+ Mbps over wifi the switch should be that fast. I have no need for this adapter with my wifi. That being said, i do prefer hard connections. Just sucks that your only getting half of what you could because nintendo doesn't do proper hardware updates for performance or real stability. Only their "stability" which really just means patching ways console hackers are doing stuff.

lucky. I have 60 for Ethernet

EPS5000 Some of us have no choice when it comes to ISP's. Comcast has a monopoly in a lot of places and give different options based on that. We have a fucking data limit on our internet and have no other options for changing it. It's fucking bullshit because they know that modern games take a fuckton two download. They are one of the worst companies in the world, always have been. We can't even get Verizon FiOS anywhere near us.

EPS5000 This has nothing to do with ISPs. It appears that wired and wireless networking on the Switch sucks ass. I get 125 Mbps down and 13 Mbps up from any wired computer on my network. My Switch is 4 feet (a little over a meter) away from my router with direct line of sight. I got 10 Mbps down and 5 up wireless. The phone I'm typing this on just tested at 42 down and 13 up from my bed room which is 30 plus feet from the router and has two walls in between. I got a USB 3.0 to LAN adapter and now I get 35 Mbps down and 7 up. Of course we don't know what server(s) Nintendo is using for their speed test. Maybe the wired results are being bottlenecked by the server. However, the wireless connection is definitely trash. If I use my Switch wirelessly in my bedroom the connection is so weak that the eShop sometimes fails to load due to the connection timing out. The Switch seemingly has the worst wireless radio of any device that I've ever used. The future of multiplayer gaming on the Switch is not bright. Hopefully the strength of the WiFi radio in the Switch can be adjusted via a system update. The only game I've played multiplayer is Fast RMX and it has been laggy in every match I've played. Fast Racing NEO multiplayer for Wii U was fine even though I could only ever find matches with people in Germany or UK. Fuck Nintendo's hardware. They need to stick to developing games. It would be so nice to not have to buy their shitty hardware just to play a dozen games or so. The SNES was the last console they produced that was sensibly designed.

I'm down the hall from my router and I got 50 down and 6 up with 2 bars on the Switch's WIFI icon (5 GHz). Idk whats wrong with yours but I'm having no issues.

I've tried two Switches. Same speed test results while docked, sitting four feet from the router. 10 Mbps down, 5 Mbps up. This is on 2.4 GHz. I don't use the 5 GHz band on my router. The USB 3.0 to gigabit LAN adapter that only managed 34 down, 7.5 up on the Switch did 122.66 down and 13.07 up on my laptop using a USB 2.0 port and the same Ethernet cable run. I think the drivers are just screwed up right now. I have another Switch I can test with but I'm expecting the same results. Maybe 5 GHz will give me better speeds but something is still fucked in the backend. No way should I be getting such slow speeds with the LAN adapter.
