put simply they cut costs by using lower rated cpus cores inside the SOC (SystemOn a Chip)and so the units cant sustain the advertised top speeds when all the bells and wistles are turned on and sent to the internal CPU to process etc....itbasicly runs out of steam as it were....
Oh no I get all of that I really do

But surely if you having a Gigabit LAN and a Gigabit WAN port - not actually connecting the two with something that can pass data at Gigabit speeds is a load of the proverbial?
