Review: DIY Firewall that just works! - If you're not put off by installing and configuring an open source firewall, this little computer is for you. It's made in the USA, which makes it expensive, but the build quality is excellent, and the system is extremely reliable. I deployed a pfsense firewall for my company with this unit, managing several wired and wireless networks and users. So far, this has been the most relaiable router I've ever had. Network speed is high and stable, and there hasn't been a single glitch, outage or other disruption since deployment. It just works.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Review
*by P***N on 24 April 2021*

Great quality per dollar, the hardware is top notch and much cheaper than from China. 6 intel ports I5 8250U and DDR4, works great as a firewall or proxmox The one caveat is that COREBOOT is not supported yet I’m very happy supporting an American company
