Look at the bottom of this page in regards to performance..... https://routerboard.com/RB1100AHx2
Look at the last entry... for expected performance... don't look at the best numbers, but rather look at the worst numbers.... And you will quickly recognize that rb1100ahx2 as a multi-function router is only good for 100-200meg of traffic... ------------------------------- Now I will also backup above with the following:- Many moons ago, when we turned up our first peering port connection (1G) we used a RB1100AHx2 router, and very quickly learned that we were running into a hardware bottleneck around 150m to 200meg of traffic We replaced it with a PowerRouter 732..... and we were able to pass a full 1G of traffic all day long without any issues... ------------------------------- I am not making a case for the PowerRouter ...... I am confirming that the RB1100AHx2 is under-powered for the job.... Best of Luck.
