Hello tskiba,
Welcome to the community!
If this is an FVS318G version 1 you are a little out of luck since the maximum WAN-to-LAN throughput that it can handle is just about 11Mbps. However, if you have a version 2 (FVS318Gv2) then I would say it is an issue since the v2 can accommodate up to 250Mbps. If you want me to check what version you have, you can send me a PM of the serial number.
Looking forward to your response.
Thanks,

Thanks. Based on the serial number this appears to be a v1 unit. Will be upgrading to a v2 unit this weekend.
