What's the point of having 1G on WAN and 2.5G on LAN? Traffic won't hit the LAN port until it's routed to the Internet, yet the WAN port is the bottleneck.

Edit: Seems like I switch up the port speed but my point still holds as the bittleneck still exist.

Maybe it can be used as a router on a stick.

That's the only use I can think of but I don't know if OpenWRT support VLAN cuz I never used it directly.
