I'm on 500/500 because my firewall throughput is about 700Mbps. I could go up to 3Gbps symmetrical. However, I have not been able to find any non-enterprise level hardware that supports above 2.5Gbps.
I'm curious if anyone here has hardware recommendations that isn't the provider provided stuff that can make use of >1Gbps
