Unfortunately 2.5Gbe WAN port based router is not that useful to act as the main router in Singapore context because of the ISP 2Gbps plans are either aggregated 2Gbps or dual 1Gbps plan. It can be useful as a secondary router though after you establish the main 2.5G/5G/10G network.

Most home user will not be able to fully utilise the 2Gbps and having more bandwidth not necessarily faster speed. The website used by user will also have control of the user's download and upload speed. Should do more research first.
