They have a single-core 720mhz CPU, same as the TL-WR1043ND v2 / v3 I've benchmarked 160mbps NAT throughput, from WAN -> LAN throughput on Gargoyle, so... If you're gonna go faster than 100mbps (Even a 200/200 plan) don't bother, it won't hold up. They don't even get anywhere near Gigabit when in WiFi -> LAN bridge-mode either... You'll want to get yourself an Archer C7 in WiFi -> LAN bridge-mode and use something else for the PPPoE / NAT side. I've opted for a Ubiquiti EdgeRouter-X myself, they'll easily handle a Gigabit connections NAT. I ran this as a second speedtest, while my first speedtest was still "uploading" www.speedtest.net (So it's full-duplex transfer speeds there, at the start of "peak" timing of the evening) Basically get the same sorts of speeds to Sydney / California too :)	Chilling_Silence (9)
