2GB Ethernet Port Router Planned?

[East]

Since ISP's are showcasing gigabyte download speeds I was wondering if plans are made for router that offers 2GB Ethernet ports?  So that you can get close to the cap of your download speeds of 1GB to 2GB range?

I certainly wouldn't rule it out, but there's nothing in the works just yet I'm afraid!

If that is not in the works they will fall behind at some point.

 

I can get 2Gbit service where I live in Asia. And my place in Europe will most likely get a 8Gbit PON-XGS fiber connection in the next 6 months. Will probably have to set up a PFSense box for this.

 

IMHO for me the only reason to buy new routers at the moment is multi gig service. Ie for the XR700 I am already using the 10Gbit internal feature but it lacks 2,5G/10G WAN service.

 

Even ISP boxes are have already started using 2,5Gbit ports.

The PON-XGS has been out for some time in France, we have 2 ISPs out of the 4 national ones which offer 8 Gbit in DL and the 2 others which currently only offer 2 Gbit (theoretical speed)..., I would be very interested to see a router signed with DumaOS allowing us to take advantage of it...!
