thinking of updating my internet, will my astaro box cope?

Currently I am on virign media 50mb down 5mb up service. 

soon 100mb down 10mb up is coming to my area and I am considering updating. 


Astaro box specs: 
2.66Ghz Celeron 
40GB hard drive
2gb Memory 
WAN:  eth0 [3Com Corporation 3c905C-TX/TX-M [Tornado]]
INTERNAL:  eth1 [ADMtek NC100 Network Everywhere Fast Ethernet 10/100]
2nd INTERNAL: eth2 [Intel Corporation 82562EZ 10/100 Ethernet Controller]



im thinking that to take advantage of 100mbs download speed I may have to replace the network cards with gigabit capable ones, apart from that will that machine be able to cope ok with it?

Thanks for reading, Mark
