Anthony,
TNX for the def. I'll back out and follow this thread some more. I do
know that my router's WAN port is 1000Mbps, and, that all 4 of its'
switch ports are likewise.. Fine. I accept that my router's throughput in
my wired only use may be limited then by my FIOS connection to 50Mbps
synchronous.
I do know that my remaining intra-LAN business does run at '1Gbps' tops
client-to-client via my GBit
switches. My slow-poke is my printer. It remains 100Mbps. I think I
got it, but will follow this thread some more before I jump on the 'NEW
Router' want list just yet. Should the RT-66U offer benefits to me in
a wired-only use, count me in!

Duncan,
I think that is total throughtput that router can handle (A gigabit
router should mean 1000Mbps, definitely not possible over wirelss). I
found this:
Throughput
Throughput is a measure of how fast data flows through the router. The
test sends data from computer to computer, measures how much time it
takes, and calculates the result in Mbps (Megabits per second).
So based on the numbers I seriously doubt it is wifi operation. I'm
streaming blu-ray in here and I want all I can get all the time
through my router. I frequently move big files over my network.

Anthony,
Can I suppose that this 'total throughput' value is stilted toward
WIFI operation?
Like you, I sort of got disappointed when I see the current ASUS
rated 1268.6 and
my own DLink rated 255.8.
But then, I only do wired network ops. And, my router's rated value
is still 5x faster/greater
than the 50Mbps speed for my FIOS connection. So, I guess my router
is mostly loafing along
ATM. Somehow I think I am missing something..... :)

Is there any word on when the new Asus will street? I'm going to
wait for a review and user feedback before I buy.
I did hear that Netgear has some good networking stuff streeting too.

Yes, the 56U is too good to be true. Amazing how Asus, a relatively
unknown networking company, has put out one of the best routers of
2011.
They look to repeat this in 2012 also!!
Amazing!! Stinksys has really gone down the drain. My friend
bought their
latest and greatest and it really blows donkey nards!!

Pretty compelling...I didn't realize my Netgear 3700 was sucking
so much
hind tit! It's been rock stable over the past year even though
the usb
sharing is too slow to use.
