So I took delivery of the hub 5 today. Have yet to plug it all in - on my list to do later and hopefully be able to see if via the 2.5Gbit port into my routers 2.5Gbit port (can be selected as the WAN port) I'm getting the full speeds into the router.
So the answer to that is yes it can:
I have however logged something on the community forums as the upstream doesn't look right.
