Alexandre/Dan: I'm reading conflicting information. You write that the FVS-318 is capable of handling 100mbps (which is what the installation tech told me) while Dan writes, "SmallNetBuilder's review of it from 2002 shows its maximum upload and download throughput as about 7 mbps: https://www.smallnetbuilder.com/lanwan/lanwan-reviews/24591-netgearprosafevpnfirewallreview?showall=&start=6 If you're getting within 1-2 mbps of 7 mbps download speeds, then you're basically at the limit of your router's capabilities." Do I use the wrt54g with firmware from 2006 or buy something new (ethernet, not wireless)?
