Well if you can bribe some people in the middle that does not count hence the Panama based ISPs

Great news! tbh I just assumed from past exprience with Intel NICs that it will negotiate to lower speed without FEC. Personnaly I'll probably go with some cheap mellanox card on e…

In terms of CPU it is not totally overkill if you're using an IPS/IDS, bare in mind you'll also be disabling most of the network card offloading in a full fledged firewall and that…
