Maybe pay a little more for gigabit?

Gigabit is also handy for moving files around your internal network irrespective of broadband speed. Obviously your other equipment needs to support these speeds.
Makes a huge difference for me as I move files from my pvr to server that are 2-4Gb in size.
Not a requirement for everyone though.

If you have any other gigabit equipment on your wired network, then yes, definitely worth it.

I'm only currently getting 17-19 megabyte download speed as no fibre in my area :disappointed: hence my decision for a lesser box as it meet my needs for now.

Just in-case this helps anyone out, this box requires power. In hindsight I don't know why I ever thought it wouldn't, but I didn't register when I bought it, and didn't have a spare socket available.

Just out of interest - if you have always-on mains powered kit in the loft/roof space, do you also have a smoke detector up there?
