I'm in a similar situation - - - they're dragging in fiber out in the country. Its being worked on at this point so I'm not connected yet but soon I hope.
I checked yesterday and saw 8 Gb was available here. I checked the price and decided against it.
Lennart - - - you're talking about connecting direct to your firewall (likely an appliance). I've acquired a mini pc (like the intel nucs), a second mini pc that I will be dropping likely pfsense (firewall) on and also a managed switch.
That's what I have here. I have a Qotom mini PC, with i5 CPU, 4 GB RAM 64 GB SSD and 4 1 GB Ethernet ports. I run pfSense on it and have a managed 8 port Cisco switch. Works very well.
No router? TIA
