At no point does that spec say a single thing about speed. The closest part I could find was "Upstream data rate 1.244Gbps", but I think it's pretty clear that that is the link speed, not the actual data rate. It's worth wringing them out over the issue, maybe you can shame them into taking the units back, but I don't think you will have much luck pinning them down legally on some nebulous belief that it would run at wire rate gigabit.

Any router/modem that *crashes* when the input rate exceeds the output rate is broken. A router/modem shouldn't crash regardless of the data input rate. It might drop packets but not crash. -- Mark Andrews, ISC 1 Seymour St., Dundas Valley, NSW 2117, Australia PHONE: +61 2 9871 4742 INTERNET: marka@isc.org
