Hi all, cross-posting from ITPA apologies for any duplication... I have a MK RB2011UAS at home and it works a treat. But… in the real world it will only handle about 16Mbps IPSEC throughput and flakes out after that. This model has been brilliant because heaps of features, it works… and it’s cheap. But it obviously won’t scale to 100Mit throughput, let alone 100+. So… just wondering what Mikrotik options I can look at after this model? - Will be running dual wan - Don’t need POE or Wifi - Needs to be faster than the RB2011 specifically when handling IPSEC. - Prefer Gbit interfaces but not required - If it’s in the same “family” as the RB2011 that would be good It’s for a small office so not looking for anything carrier grade. But internet speeds have moved on (sort of) finally… Cheers, Chris
Hi The new RB750R3 is cheap, small and does 450Mbit/s accelerated encryption. https://routerboard.com/RB750Gr3 Jason On 3 May 2017 at 10:30, Chris Herrmann <chrisherrmann7@gmail.com> wrote:

Hi Chris, I am in the process of doing an upgrade at home from the RB2011 to the RB750G3 for exactly this reason. One of my work colleagues upgraded from a RB951G to the RB750G3. He has 100/40 NBN at home, and the GRE/IPSEC endpoint is terminating on a RB1100AHx2 on a 300/300 fibre line. The GRE link can be saturated up to the NBN connection speed on the RB750G3, with about 10-15% CPU utilisation. So definitely a capable unit, and definitely priced well at around $80. Note that you don't have wireless on this unit, so keep that in mind.

Watch out for the RB1100AHx4 coming soon - 'dude edition' features 4 core 1.4GHz cpu, accelerated encryption (for up to 2200mbps IPSEC) and included 60 gig microSD storage. Available soon at 'you know where' ;-) Cheers! Mike.
