This is interesting and I did a little research. I have an Atom E3845 and use PPPoE W/Vlans on gigabit, and can can confirm I get ~700mbps max. It’s a bummer. According to geekbench5, lowly the J5005 is over twice as fast as mine in single core performance. So that discrepancy makes sense. (I’ve switch to OpenWRT for now and it works full speed no sweat).
I think a lot of the folks running into pppoe gigabit limits are using similar old lower power systems. Think of the super popular APU2 and related PCS. Or the J1900 mini PC systems. These are all similarly slow compared to a “lowly” J5005.
Bottom line for those interested: when deciding, compare single core benchmarks to these systems to get an idea of how your prospective system will perform. Report back on how things pan out.
Found this in a week old comment in an OPN subreddit:
So here we have someone claiming near full gig throughput on a LOWLY Pentium J5005. Base freq 1.5GHz, burst 2.8GHz. 10W TDP which is really nice.
