Both the ERL and ERX have hardware NAT offloading as of 1.8.5 (current firmware is 1.9.0), but the ERL also has ipsec offloading.

Just a random note... there are very limited site-to-site scenarios where the IPSec offload will actually kick in. I wasn't able to get offload working for any kind of remote access scenario, meaning it's not usable as a VPN (unaccellerated strong crypto on the MIPS is < 10 Mbps)


Ubiquity would absolutely own this router space if they made a follow up to the ERL with fully offloaded IPSec for stronger crypto.
