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.

Ha 2, we're in the Euro zone, so we're right in between the USD and GBP.
