Decided to ditch multigig networking at home. After 3 years, we still only have two computers that can do 2.5GbE. I have never once thought “ah, I wish I could transfer this a bit quicker” over my local network. My ISP still cannot offer a sensible symmetric connection that breaches 1Gbps.
It has not been worth the additional energy use or equipment expense. Selling the USW-Enterprise-24 and swapping for a USW-Standard-48.
