      The web page for the 4100 says that it has 1/2.5gb WAN ports, is this true?

      "edge deployments that require flexible port configurations to support 1 to 2.5 Gbps WAN capabilities across (2) RJ45/SFP Combo WAN ports"

      I ask because farther down in the description it says it only has 1gb WAN ports

      "(2) Auto media detect 1 Gbps (RJ45 copper / SFP fiber) Combo WAN ports"

      Or is this mis-worded and means you can use the LAN ports for 2.5gb WAN?

      I posted this in the general hardware forum by accident, that can be deleted.

        2 combo GBit RJ45/SFP port, 4 Intel 2.5GBit RJ45 ports, dedicated interface, you can choose what is WAN and what is LAN.
        Simply assign as desired.

          Ok thanks. I might pick one of these up instead of a 6100 for home because I don't see any reason for 10gb WAN, support for 2gb is plenty.
