      So yea, I am maxing my network adapter with this FIOS@125MB/s.
      Yea, I understand Kb/KB/Mb/MB/Gb/GB, I adapted to using MB vs Mbps.

        Yes, it's a very common mistake. So common in fact that I just assumed you meant bits. I apologise.

        Anyway be happy you have access to 1Gbps while I wait for another download to complete! ☺

          @vamike said in Building pfsense box:

          The pcengines apu2 runs about $150

          And it can push gig internet?

            @johnpoz it can push gigabit all day long under linux+iptables. last I looked it was a little slower with pf (800 something Mbps) but as I said above it may be better with the isr deferred config. it cannot do gigabit pppoe, and openvpn speeds are somewhere around 50-100Mbps.
