New SG-3100
-
I can retire my parent's DD-WRT device now. 802.11n is good enough.
a) those statements don't have much in common and
b) you're aware that SG-3100s do not have any kind of WLAN on board?And yes, n-standard is usually quite sufficient.

What’s the LAN-to-WAN and the WAN-to-LAN throughout with NAT enabled?
I saw that you guys tweeted the VPN throughputs with IPSec being around 280 Mbps, which is not bad for this price range. But can the SG-3100 do a full Gigabit throughput with NAT enabled?
Also, what’s the maximum combined throughput for inter-VLAN Routing? Since the internal connection between the switch and the SOC is 2.5 Gbps, that’s the theoretical maximum, but can it actually inter-VLAN route at 2.5 Gbps or close to that?

Device can deliver up to a gigabit with NAT enabled.
There are 2x 1GbE, configured as dual WAN or one WAN one LAN. Both gigabit and there's a gigabit four-port 1 gbps Marvell 88E6141 switch. The switch is uplinked at 2.5 gbps to the third port on the SoC for LAN.

Has this been benchmarked?
Why not publish the official benchmark? At this price point, it’s important to know if Gigabit LAN-to-WAN and WAN-to-LAN can be achieved.
Additionally, for smaller networks without an L3 switch, it’s important to know if inter-VLAN routing can be done by the SOC at higher than 1 Gbps so that in the SOHO Enviroment, inter-VLAN Routing by the Router on the Stick won’t start to immediately subtract from the throughput to the Internet.

It has been benchmarked, that's how we know that the device is capable of gigabit NAT. We have also published VPN troughput numbers which you have seen.
Additionally, for smaller networks without an L3 switch, it’s important to know if inter-VLAN routing can be done by the SOC at higher than 1 Gbps so that in the SOHO Enviroment, inter-VLAN Routing by the Router on the Stick won’t start to immediately subtract from the throughput to the Internet.

I received my SG-3100 on Friday, I'm still going through the pfsense handbook, but from other stuff I've read on this board and the subreddit board, it looks like I may have to wait until 2.4.2 is out in order to use it because it's going to replace a centurylink router with PPPOE and a vlan of 210. However, at the PfSense portal, there are no ARM images or beta releases for ARM. Also, I haven't got to this part yet, but when I get to the point where this is set up and connected to the WAN, will I be able to see all the packages available for the SG-3100 with "pkg search -g *", at least from the command line or somewhere in the GUI?
