Pros & Cons
Pros
To run it headless, enable the serial port console via the bios (esc/del to enter bios at post) all you need to do is remove 4 screws on the bottom plate and it pops right off. I recommend you stock up on these like a doomsday prepper and decorate you... Read More
An added bonus is that hunsn's customer service is excellent! These cost $100 less on aliexpress, but i wanted instant gratification. My only complaint is there isn't a u. S.
Review is for the bare bones model, 6 nics, intel j6413 cpu, i226vi own several of these intel x86-based mini pc's. I paired it with a transcend msata 256gb ssd (yes it only takes msata and not m. Sata) gbaset link with the at&t bgw320-505 directl... Read More
Highlights
Quality
Very good construction and i have already told all of my friends to buy one.
All 6 ports are working great and my little opnsense firewall is running amazing.
Restarted and went back to bios to change boot order to ssd first and viola, all done.
7, using just a fraction of the cpu and ram even under heavily load.
Price
Unfortunately, after i bought it, the price went up to $290, so i have to knock off a star due to the price-to-performance ratio.
Very pleased with this product's price, performance and silent operation.
So you are looking at another $100 for a wan switch.
Ram and msata drives are pretty inexpensive these days.
Shipping
These folks provided a quick solution to get me back up and runningwill highly recommend products and service from hunsn.
The seller is sending a vesa mount after i contacted them, but it's on a slow boat from china.
Packaging/appearance
This is why i took off a star* i'd prefer the box came with vesa mounting options standard.
The box gets toasty at about 55 degrees celsius with a room temp of 72 degrees fahrenheit.
Competitiveness
This one has six (6) i226v nics, and all i can say is, the more nics, the better.
Asus/netgear/whatever network junk stocked at best buy simply doesn't compare to these in terms of performance and reliability.
You won't find a consumer router/firewall on the market that will perform as well as one of these running pfsense and opnsense.
However, it's still way better than any regular consumer router out there.

I am sure it wouldnt struggle with snort or suricata
Posted by a reviewer on Amazon
I decided to go with this box over the protectli due to it being about 200 cheaper for a similar specced version i got the celeron j6413 version with the 6 x intel i226v 2
