    $70 Dual LAN Mini PC w/ i3-1115G4, 8GB, internal PSU

    The Intel GPU spec also lists that it supports 3 monitors, but the Seneca has 4? Could that be limiting the capability?

    Just updated my Pi-Hole

    I have several 3040s and Diet Pi is great on them once I uncovered an easy install method-Ventoy. The 3040 UEFI bios is very picky about booting from USB, Ventoy works with no issues. Diet Pi is a great small Linux with an easy to use menu based package manager "dietpi-software" and a good...

    I have 1 16GB SODIMM in mine and it works fine. I think I read 32GB is supported, but haven't tried it. Delete is the key to access the BIOS. The BIOS looks functional, but nothing fancy. I haven't found anything in there regarding the 16 ports or POE. Running Debian in mine and has been solid...

    The POEUtility manual includes instructions for a Linux version, but I haven't found any Linux code. From the manual it looks like the switch power is controlled via a serial port and the Windows app opens a command prompt window that shows diag information for each operation performed on the...

    Windows 11 works. The POE Utility download on the NEXCOM page functions on Win 11, shows wattage draw per port and allows you to turn POE on or off.

    $70 Dual LAN Mini PC w/ i3-1115G4, 8GB, internal PSU

    Alt-F4 kills the menu player app. The auto-login id "IW" has administrator privileges so you can use the Settings -> Apps dialog to remove all the applications. Also, the box is configured for the QT domain with domain policies that limit updates, etc. I just moved it from the domain to a workgroup.

    The user manual describes installing a rack mount kit and a wall mount kit, but I haven't found a part number for either.

    The block diagram indicates that the POE switch is connected to an i211 PHY which is supported by OPNSense, so it should show up as 3rd interface.

    Dell Wyse 3040 $35 OBO

    I cut the shrink plastic off, peeled the spot weld tabs off the dead battery without damaging the wires and connector. I taped the battery tabs onto a standard cell with foil tape and then wrapped the whole battery in a layer of electrical tape. Has worked for about a year so far...

    Dell Wyse 3040 $35 OBO

    I have some of these and use DietPi and also OpenWRT. Cheap compared to a RPi (if you can find one) when you consider fully boxed with Power Supply. It is covered elsewhere, but I found that Linux boot doesn't like the 3040 serial port. For installs I use the grub edit function to remove all...

    Crestron CCS-UC-CODEC-200

    This mPCIe -> PCIe adapter: https://www.amazon.com/dp/B07XRRQ6P6 works. There is a 4-jumper block near the mSATA/mPCIe slot that switches the slot mode. I have tested several video cards and the BIOS screen is available if you don't have the touchscreen. OPNSense with an i350 ethernet board...

    Crestron CCS-UC-CODEC-200

    Low wattage Proxmox nodes. I wanted to update my home "lab" to a Cluster and these are working well. I removed the audio input board and replaced it with perforated scrap that mounts 1 or 2 sata drives. To reduce waste energy I unplug the power from the video interface board after I have them...

    Crestron CCS-UC-CODEC-200

    The boxes come with Windows 7 Embedded. So far the only way I have been able to access Windows is via the Crestron TS1051 touch screen. The BIOS seems to only talk to the touch screen as well. Maybe there is a jumper setting?
