Hi Bob, That's what I observed as well with my bench power supply - as I dropped the voltage, the current would increase and wattage would remain relatively constant. I don't recall the exact point at which the board will sort of konk-out .. but I seem to recall the threshold is much above

Re: [Soekris] I see development of the net6801 has been dropped.

When I originally saw this thread I didn't think much about it but given my experience, it makes sense. I'm not sure that there's a place in the market for the Net6801. Consider that there are several Intel Atom based machines which are only slightly more expensive than the current Net6501-70.

Re: [Soekris] I see development of the net6801 has been dropped.

Hi, I also found the net6801 very interesting and a good step forward. Recently, I replaced my two 5501 and 6501 with two apu's from pc engines. Not exactly the amount of nics (only 3) and no PCIe expansion, yet it serves my purpose and it is a good deal for a reasonable price. It's not ARM

Re: [Soekris] I see development of the net6801 has been dropped.

Howdy, I think this was a smart move. When I saw the original announcement for the 6801, I thought it was a bad idea. That kind of CPU with the support chips it needs is not cost effective. I hope they switch to a 64 bit arm design. Good day, Ralph

Howdy, On the low end, I would say a Banana Pi R1 router is comparable. I have one and it has problems, but is usable. I have only used it on slow networks(like 4 mbps down and 1 up. Cnewer chipsets with eight 64 bit cpus should be able to keep up with much faster traffic at low power. Ralph

I just saw the news on soekris.com This is very unfortunate. I was looking forward to it, as my net6501-70 has been having trouble keeping up with my fiber connection. Are there any other plans to release something more powerful than the net6501-70?

Re: [Soekris] I see development of the net6801 has been dropped.

Guess I picked up my used net6501-70 on e-bay just in time! Has anybody experimented with PCIe ethernet switching cards? I have been looking at the DualComm DCP-1004(L), which might be a nice way to do switching through my net6501 without using the onboard CPU for layer-2. I was having trouble
