Upgrading My Network from Gigabit to Multigigabit! - Basic 2.5Gbe Network Setup

This network upgrade is LONG overdue. I finally was able to purchase something on Black Friday and what I got was everything I needed to upgrade my network from gigabit to 2.5Gbe a.k.a multigigabit. I don't really need 10Gbe right now but this was still awesome. Let me walk you through how I managed to finally achieve download speeds higher than 1GBps using the Trendnet 2.5Gbe Switch and Network Adapter on Xfinity internet. I also install the Asustor Drivestor 2 NAS so I can finally have a proper basic backup plan for my data.
