That is going to be fun. My plan is to replace my trusty wndr3700v2 as dumb AP, but let's see when this becomes available for actual purchase... (I am still on the fence about the wisdom to opt for an a53 CPU core (not an a53 fan, this thing seems to have glass jaws a plenty), but I guess it will run circles around the in order single core in the wndr36700v2) Again this seems to implicate the nanopi 4RS as a decent option as it seems to use an sd card, which should make installation relative easy... (I guess I need to get my hands on one for actual testing before continued cheer leading ;) ) > > David Lang > _______________________________________________ > Bloat mailing list > Bloat@lists.bufferbloat.net > https://lists.bufferbloat.net/listinfo/bloat _______________________________________________ Bloat mailing list Bloat@lists.bufferbloat.net https://lists.bufferbloat.net/listinfo/bloat
