I purchased the barebone unit because I wanted to choose the brand of RAM and mSATA drive. I ended up purchasing 2x Micron Crucial 8 GB and an INDMEM 256 GB SSD. Like others have reported, after setup the unit that arrived would not POST or boot with both SODIMM slots populated. A quick swap test revealed that slot0 would recognize the RAM but slot1 would not. HUNSN was quick to respond to my messages and with the details I provided they had a replacement unit on its way the next day.

Bought thisto replace an aging Netgate router/firewall running pfSense after reading a recommendation on Reddit. While the product description here implies that this unit comes with OPNsense, it actually came with pfSense Community Edition 2.6.0 installed. Not a big deal to me, but those who want to run OPNsense will need to be prepared to install that image onto the system. I was pleasantly surprised at how well this little box works for my complicated multi-WAN setup with 2 Gbps fiber service. If youre looking for an inexpensive pfSense router/firewall, give this a serious look.

Works fine headless but has issues with HDMI on multiple monitors. Display port connection work well. If you have POST beep but no video try a display port cable/monitor.

I recently discovered that my ISP allows me to upgrade my service to 2Gbps, and 5Gbps. I have a pfSense firewall I built about 10 years ago but it has been perfectly capable of handling 1Gbps with IPS/IDS, VPN, Web Proxy with SSL dycyption, and any other package I wanted. Howevery, it couldnt do 2Gbps. I upgraded the NIC and I just started having all kinds of intermitted issues. I orginally didnt want to use the mini pc solution because I was concerned with the overheating and how it performs when you start loading packages in. Well, have no fear this beast punches way above its weight class.

+OPNsense install works great (balenaEtcher -> VGA to USB install)

These are really good for what they are, dedicated hardware to runFreeBSD/linux etc. based firewall/router oss

First, they delivered the product quicker than I thought, I probably got it like 5 or 6 days before the expected date.

I purchased a few other units like this one and of all the ones I tried, this one is the best.

Loaded up with newest version of pfsense, and it worker perfectly. 2.5gb network ports working for the devices that have that port, no problems. Seller even sent a support email, that I didnt request, with tips and suggestions to get things working. Which I took as a good sign. Would buy from again.

Came loaded with pfSense, but I did a fresh install to set my base level of trust. It’s quiet and has plenty of performance to support VPNs back to my Netgate 6100.
