I bought one of these for home a while back, works great. I had a few requirements in mind.

If you are thinking of pfSense, be aware that the 3.0 version will require AES-NI support in the CPU. That rules out some of the cheaper mini-PCs, but means faster crypto support.

It looks like they're out of business. Does anyone have any suggestions for an alternative for use as a firewall/router, etc? Does everyone just use a Pi now? What about multiple network interfaces?

Hey all,

Maybe someone can remember the device I'm trying to recall.

It's from a company that makes small devices which can run Linux and they come either as a bare board or in a small metal box with some number of ethernet ports. It's not ARM-based. I know that's vague, but surely some of you can come up with a list which will contain the one I'm trying to remember! Or something comparable, at least. Oh, and they used to advertise in Linux Journal. I'm not sure if they're still in business.
