| Re: [PLUG] Low Power Consumption Firewall/Router |
I've used a Soekris 5501 as my firewall for like 8 or 9 years now. I started with Slackware, but Debian runs pretty well on there too. Runs like a champ, but they are a bit expensive. The 5501 is EOL so you could pick one up for less than $200 IIRC. There's a newer model available, the 6501, with better flexibility in regards to storage. I've been happy with the hardware but holding off on upgrading to the 6501 & exploring other options as myself. I'm interested to hear other's suggestions. ___________________________________________________________________________ Philadelphia Linux Users Group -- http://www.phillylinux.org Announcements - http://lists.phillylinux.org/mailman/listinfo/plug-announce General Discussion -- http://lists.phillylinux.org/mailman/listinfo/plug
