This one!

There isn't a similar model with multigig unfortunately, it is a reasonable cpu inside tho.

Edit: With a hub5 you could do the reverse of what I tested on hub3 and udmp, put a little 10g switch between them, 2.5G from hub5->switch, 802.3ad from switch->firewalla
Ah interesting!

Yeah seems like they didnt expect much uptake of >1gig for their customers but as you say the hardware can cope with a lot. Definitely had a significant improvement on network performance by moving my Orbi mesh to AP mode and the Firewalla driving everything.

Cool - that sounds like a really good approach! Do you have any recommendations on switches to use? I have Netgear around my house but their consumer grade 10 gig switches don't seem to support link aggregation.

Appreciate the insights!
