250$?! I can buy n100 minipc with 90$ and wifi7 intel card for 20$

Will that minipc have those 10g/5g/2.5g ethernet ports? If you don't need that ethernet bandwidth, we all know there are cheaper options.

You and me know, but not everyone, most people don't even know what lemmy is

[–] [email protected] 10 points 1 week ago (1 children)

People reading about OpenWRT based network devices, probably know about their needs. They are usually already looking for devices with OpenWRT support, without being too expensive.

Also, people not knowing about Lemmy is completely irrelevant on this context. I highly doubt that all friends on the network engineering field know about Lemmy, but they surely know whether they need 10g or not. Besides that, you are talking about people not knowing about Lemmy ON Lemmy.

Where can you buy an N90 for 90$? Legit question.

1 Ethernet port does not a router make.

[–] [email protected] 5 points 1 week ago

Router-on-a-stick would work, but I'd like a 10G SFTP for that.

Have you seen Xiaomi WiFi routers?

thats garbage marketing naming. that is an access point

Only 1 ethernet port.

[–] [email protected] 1 points 1 week ago

They often only have 1 ethernet port that's 1GbE or 2.5GbE at that price, and a wifi client card doesn't make a very good AP.
