I think that is not much more speed than the 500X while the 500X has 100Mb port en the 500X2 has 1000Mb port.
That I do not mean the 500X2 10x as fast as the 500X but somewhat faster than now.
I use a netgear router,
1 cabel from the router to 2e floor where my computer is.
1 cabel to 1 GB switch, on that switch is the cabel from the 500X2
(there are more cabels ont that switch from my TV and Bluray)
