PPPoE throughput

Hi all,

I just bought an R650 for my home network and I noticed that I can run it as a gateway. I'm just wondering how fast the PPPoE throughput might be - could it keep up with my 1Gb fibre connection or would I be best off keeping my ISP router until I find something better?

Hi Squozen,

I have gig FTTP and tested using an R610 as the PPPoE gateway and achieved around 300Mbps throughput.

As I understand PPPoE is processor-intensive to perform the encapsulation so you're unlikely to realise full 1Gb throughput using a non-dedicated router device.

HTH,
Darrel.
