Actually I was wrong - the Speed Shift options are not dependent on E-core state - they were added by a patch that can be enabled in System Patches. I think the system worked fine with E-cores enabled. Right now I am trying to use just the P-cores and testing out the options. So far the power...

My N6005 box would absolutely saturate 1Gb with extensive Snort and Pfblocker rules, and would get about 70% CPU use when doing so. Any of the N-1xx series or especially the i3-n3xx series would be even faster. I did just pick up a new Topton i5-1240p with 10Gb because I was considering going...

Was able to import my Pfsense config and running this as my primary router/firewall, using DAC cable on SFP+ to my Unifi Aggregation switch . Slightly higher idle power at about 20W likely due to background network activity compared to 14W during completely idle Ubuntu install. With only 4...

I had been looking for an unnecessarily fast router that could handle 5Gb or even 10Gb WAN with a ton of pfblocker and suricata rules enabled... and I think I've finally found it. This was delivered from China in less than 2 weeks. Truly, we live in a crazy time - this is so much more powerful...

I have fairly extensive IDS/IPS filtering. I am pretty close to 8GB of RAM already with all the filters, and pulling line speed on the N6005 box uses about 70% CPU with my filter set - I upgraded from an earlier generation Atom box because I needed the extra processing power. The Netgate options...

I am currently very happy with my N6005 topton box, but google fiber is offering 2gb and potentially going to 5gb in my area soon. I heard that people have used the Unifi UDM Pro with SFP+ input to directly receive the optical signal from Google fiber, but I'm not interested in the UDM Pro and...

Update: the Teamgroup drive works fine in a USB NVME enclosure, so it's not formally defective, but there appears to be some kind of fundamental incompatibility with the particular mainboard in the Topton device.

Just wanted to share my experience to save the community some headache. This is the 7th Aliexpress router build, and 4th Topton device for me, but I have never encountered this problem previously. I purchased this Topton mini PC device for a router build for a friend...
