Got an old Cisco enterprise modem/router. Anything fun I can use it for at home?

Work are chucking out a "Cisco 887VA-M" integrated services router.
Anyone know if I can install some custom OS/firmware via the USB on the back?
I expect this is just e-waste but maybe it has some use as emergency switch :)

As far as I know that is still "fast" here in the UK 😅
On my 40/10 line, it's got way more bandwidth then the VDSL has
It does affect LAN speed, too. Unless you have your high-bandwidth devices running on a gigabit switch to LAN to eachother at good speeds.
