I have one outdoors in a gray cabinet, direct sunlight, uptime 120 days. No issues.

Thanks Travis-

I've looked at those units many times, but I've also read reports of random lockups and reboots with them and the x86 version of routerOS. Have you had any issues with them and if so, what version have you found to be the most stable?

These are the best little X86 based boxes you can buy (for the money). We have some we are pushing over 100Mbps and the CPU is less than 10%:

Hi guys,

I lost my "beloved" RB1000 the other day due to fan failure and it's time to start considering what I should replace it with (and what to stock a spare of).

This will be a router for my company (not a WISP). Our internet feed is 50Mb and on average, I would say there is no more than 25-30Mbit being pushed through the unit, however I did notice a huge performance hit when I plopped in my temporary RB750 to get my internet connection back up and running. I don't run much in the way of simple queues other than Butch's QoS script. I have a handful of firewall rules dictating which subnets can talk to who. The router also has an EoIP tunnel to another router for failover and acts as a PPTP VPN server.

I'm looking for something that will offer similar performance to what my RB1000 provided me. Port count isn't critical, but I'd like at least 3 and they have to be gigabit. I'm not overly concerned about rackmount or not as I have a shelf I could set the unit on. By far the most critical piece though has to be stability - both in the platform itself and ethernet performance.

So far, I've been looking at the RB450G, the RB1200 and the RB800. I've looked at a few of the x86 boards, but I believe these might be overkill for my particular application.

What do you guys think?
