## Questions & Answers

**Q: Does this run coreboot?**
A: Yes, as of April 10th, 2023, coreboot is available for the Vault FW4C.

**Q: if i connect a switch to this protectli product, will it affect speeds in anyway? switch to the LAN of Protectli**
A: Are you asking about speeds THROUGH the Vault out to the internet?  Or are you asking about speeds on your LAN through the switch?  Generally speaking, simply connecting a switch will not affect speeds, but if you connect a switch and you have lots of devices connected that are utilizing bandwidth, then it is feasible that you could saturate the 1Gbps link between the Vault and the switch.

**Q: Does this replace replace existing modem (cable router modem)?**
A: Hello

The vault can be used in multiple ways but its most commonly used as a firewall which would replace your home router and not your modem.

I'd recommend checking out some of our knowledge base articles on our website. I'll list a couple below that can give you a good diagram of small office/home office (SOHO) networks.

*Basic SOHO Wireless Netowrk
*Basic SOHO Network with Switch

**Q: Is there a similar device with more ram?  ideally 32 gb or more.  can the ram be upgraded, or is it embedded?**
A: Hello

If you're looking for a 4port 2.5G Interface unit that's capable of 32GB, I'd suggest the VP2420. Our VP4600 units which are also 2.5G interfaces can use more than 32GB. Memory can be upgraded in any of our units since they're not embedded but I'd suggest going to our website and checking out our compatibility list to ensure your modules work with our Vaults.
