Decent choice. I know you know how to set up a router without a nice UI - it is.... not trivial if you do not know your way around firewalls, ip's etc.

I believe that Mikrotik has a decent support "Wiki" on their website.
But if I have any install issues, I'll hit you up!

I'm very interested in your results & feedback. Please share as much as possible. This may turn into my standard upgrade recommendation.

The Unit should arrive by Tuesday at the latest.
I hear that you can use SSH to reach the CLI, or Winbox ( a free download ) that provides a GUI and what some believe is even better than a GUI.

Scroll all the way down the spec page to find the THROUGHPUT results. The 64 byte frames shows the pure CPU power of the RB2011:
