We have no customers with that kind of bandwidth. The biggest is a setup with: - Gb LAN (with VLAN's for data and VoIP) - 20Mb fibre connection (primary) - 2MB SDSL (VoIP) - 8Mb/1Mb ADSL line (backup) This is running fine with the Jetway and pfSense. I suppose the daughterboard with Intel should perform close to wire speed, but I cannot confirm, because we were not even close to this. >> Depending on the case you could come under $300. > > Hah!
