So I know 9/10 bridging a router will cut the speed in half or 3/4th. I've seen both. Anyways tonight I was downloading a game onto a bridged PC network and wondered - Does downloading at half the speed on my bridged computer still use half the home network's speed? in my situation, the at home router gets about 13mbps(live in the sticks, DSL2), soooo, my office's bridged PC gets about 7mbps..so does half the download of my network speed at my office to download the game also cut the home speed in half on the home network? IE: the available at my house will be 7mbps? Sorry if I got too much rust of me.
