Dennis Jacobfeuerborn <dennisml@xxxxxxxxxxxx> The EdgeRouter 's asic couldn't handle all use cases , Having some special rule will make it go to "offload" disabled mode. You should research if that's the problem. As for Linux as a router, the key thing you want to test for is PPS, not BPS. Commodity hardware should be able to handle up to 1Mpps. Buy the best Xeon within your budget. Don't bother look at anything else. (if your project is serious and need to survive a ddos attack) Cheers.
