Well it was only a few days ago they were still standing behind Q2. *shrugs*

Like Mike Hammett mentioned (almost as much as SFPs :), the issue going foward with the 493s is the L2 MTU limitation. I hate the split 10/100 and gigabit on the 2011 and we're always adding more radios at medium sized sites so the more ports (and all gigabit) that the CRS offers is attractive. I'm kinda thinking of just going to the CRS as a replacement for the 493G instead of adding a managed switch. I've put a little over 200Mbps through the 493G's (with a handful of queues and firewall rules, nothing major) and they still had a bit of room left, but I'm just not sure if the CRS can handle that. It looks like it will.. on paper. The most I've ever been able to get out of a 493G is about 70k PPS and 245Mbps of real live traffic. I'm also slightly worried about MT shit-canning the 493 series too. Hell, if I could fit an 1100AHx2 at all of the sites, I'd just use those, but they have fans that like to stop working. Just had another one last night, had to power-cycle it to get the fans going again. Has anyone else done this already? Does the CRS125 suck as a router, compared to the 493G anyway?
