Hello,

 Unfortunatelly this kind of information must interpreted and it is not writthen on stone, as we expect.

So, the WAN interface is "1 RJ-45 SFP Gigabit Ethernet combination port" while the LAN is "4 RJ-45 Gigabit Ethernet ports"

Theorically, you could have 1 Giga Internet link, right?

But, we need to consider the Router CPU capacity which is informed on the link below considering its capacity to translate NAT and VPN

Which means, maximum capacity would be 600Mbps.  And why they use NAT as parameters? Because as a Internet router, it is expected that you will use it connected to an ISP and will perform NAT as any internet implementation requires.

Probably if you were using it not connected to the internet and therefore not doing NAT, you could get 1 Giga capacity.
