The only real complain is a lack of option in BIOS to for automatic start on power-on (for turning itself on after a power outage). With 8GB ram and a 32GB SSD has plenty of horsepower for running all kinds of antivirus, proxy, IDS, and DNS blockers. Works very well as a Pfsense firewall for a gigabit connection. This is all working great, and I’m very happy with the setup! I also had to buy a MOCA to Ethernet bridge for my three set-top boxes. I went back to PFsense, emulated the actiontec MAC on the WAN port and connected up the Ethernet cable from my ONT (it was already set for ethernet, never used MOCA). I went into the actiontec, copied out the WAN MAC, released the WAN IP and shut it down for the last time. I tweaked PFsense to near perfect before placing it on the LAN. It does not heat much, but since I put it inside a closet, I still bought a small fan to put on top and keep it cool. Very compact little computer, perfect for building an Untangle firewall. I really like the case design and it looks very professional-grade, finned aluminum with vents and black paint finish. This micro-appliance is very nicely built and packaged.
