Sanity Check: SG-2440 capable of 1Gbps WAN -> LAN?
-
The SG-2440 shouldn't have an issue with 1Gbps of firewalling/NAT throughput, correct? No VPN, IDS, etc.
-
Probably a question for sales? It depends on a lot of factors, but you're not going to get full GB. Ethernet overhead and standard frames will cut some off the top even before NAT and firewalling. I know they'll run a 500mb connection at full speed with an average of around 50,000 states without stressing the processor.

We already have one that we're getting ready to replace with a more power x86 server. I get about 950Mbps with my AT&T provided router, but I'd like to have the nicer pfSense metrics.

You will not be having a real 1 GBit/s as I see it right, and also not nearly 1 GBit/s throughput at the WAN Interface with that appliance!!!
If you are not really using or must using PPPoE you could have more luck. -
is ATT Gigapower considered PPPoE? Or any FTTP connection?

I think AT&T home internet, Gigapower included, uses certificate based authentication, which is the main reason access is strictly locked to their (non bridgeable :( ) hardware* I do believe some providers (mostly not in the USA) use PPPoE.
*not that the hardware can't do it, but AT&T doesn't permit it.
