Quick question hopefully.
Just how much performance hit does the ERL take when running with the LAN ports in bridge mode? I understand that there is a performance hit because the router functions in software mode if configured as a bridge. This is for a home setup, not an office with dozens of users.
I'm about to order a Ubiquity AP and while I have a switch to connect it to, my grand scheme was to run the cable modem, router, and AP off a dedicated UPS for maximum uptime during a power outage.
I'm still on the fence about ordering a ERPOE-5 model to replace the ERL, but that will have to wait until I have a few more funds.
