A couple of weeks ago I bought a Lenovo M83 Tiny Form Factor and a
couple of USB 3.0 Gigabit NICs to run OPNsense. It came with Windows 10
Pro. It runs OPNsense and Linux just fine. I am not happy with it
because the USB NICs will only do around 30 Mb/s because BSD has
horrible USB NIC support and they are not recommended.
I tried ditching the USB NICs and using 3 VLANs and just using the 1
ethernet port and this actually worked pretty well and I was able to get
110 Mb/s from my ISP. But, when I enable IPv6 the OS has issues and
will take down the network interface after a couple of minutes. After a
couple more minutes it will reset them and come back up and then
repeat. Perhaps I am doing something stupid.
I had fun with this long enough and want to just sell it and buy a mini
PC with 4 or more NICs. I figure I would ask here before I put it on ebay.
It has an i5-4590T, 8 GB RAM and a 256GB SSD.
Front ports:
2 USB 3.0
1 Mic
1 Headphone
Back ports:
2 Display ports
1 VGA
3 USB 2.0 ports
1 Gigabit Intel
I'm wanting to get $210 out of it.
