2 minutes ago: ASUS releases yet another ridiculous router, I already have a nice ASUS wireless router; Why am I clicking on this link?
2 seconds later: OMG, 8 Ethernet ports on a consumer router?! I might be interested!
Seriously though, with consumer 10Gb/s Ethernet still nowhere to be seen (or 2.5, or 4, or 8Gb/s), I would love to pick up a router like this! 2 ports to my desktop, and 2 to my home server in Ether channel and it would make my world a much better place! Throw in another single gigabit line to the server for the 'peasants' in the home who just stream content from it, a wired wifi repeater for upstairs, a wired connection for my wife's PC, and move my printer from the wifi to a wired connection and I would already be out of ports! But still a lot better than the 4 ports I have today! Seriously interested, though I am sure the price will be out of reach at launch.
