1Gb Review
Not by myself, however thought some of you would find it of interest...

Re: 1Gb Review
thanks for that, I have been waiting for a review and to hear back from a real person who has actually got it. She makes some good points which I had already thought would be the case.

Re: 1Gb Review
The lack of a multi-gig ethernet port is a real shame on this one. I guess this really is more of a 3.1 trial than a gigabit trial though, so I'm hopeful that by the time 3.1 is available everywhere they'll have a more modern 3.1 Hub with a 2.5G or 5G port.

Some sort of link aggregation would be welcomed before then, however I'm not sure if that's possible with modem mode. I won't hold my breath...

Re: 1Gb Review
I think asking for Ethernet ports above 1Gb currently is a tall order, they’re both more expensive and more importantly harder to passively cool.
I would love to see them working towards having 100Mb uploads. |

I still stick to the heat issue though, the more components generating heat, the more cooling needed. Most people will not be impressed if they could hear the fan. |
Re: 1Gb Review
"what a HUGE disappointment not having an ethernet port faster than 1Gbps",
Isnt 950mb enough? Is it really a HUGE disappointment |

Typically VM over provision (as in this case) so that speed tests return the headline speed. I tend to agree with Kushan in that it is more of a trial of 3.1 rather than the hub which will eventually be used. |

Personally I'm not bothered 50Mb is more than enough for my needs. |

Don't get me wrong, it's all good progress and I completely get the reasons behind sticking with gigabit ethernet for now. I guess I'm actually more annoyed that the industry hasn't moved forward with more multi-gig equipment. I've got a 10Gbit ethernet port on my motherboard and I could upgrade my NAS with a 10Gbit NIC, but 10G (or 2.5/5G) switches aren't that prolific (And tend to be rackmounted/enterprise gear anyway) and Intel has only just recently said they'll start doing 2.5G ports, same for Realtek. It's still crazy to me that Internet tech has caught up with home networking tech in this way. |
Re: 1Gb Review
The advertised speed of Gig1 is 1104Mbps but 552Mbps is the minimum guaranteed download speed. Let's not get hung up about a maximum of 950Mbps due to the Ethernet port restriction.
