Hello.
I'm new to PFsense and this subforum.
Im trying to build a sub $200 PF sense system strong enough to support Snort.
I heard a celeron J1800 has enough power but most systems mitx that i have found use Realtek which I have heard is not compatible with PFSense
example:
(http://www.newegg.com/Product/Produ...135393&cm_re=ecs_j1800-_-13-135-393-_-Product)
In order to counter that I have been recommended something like this aliexpress:
http://www.aliexpress.com/store/pro...-Barebone-Mini-PC-with/800900_1638834276.html
but I would personally preffer something ship from here.
I have seen people in the forum (here) mention a intel NUC but most with my requirements surpass the budget.
Alix (some recommendations) do not seem strong enough.
I have also looked at Foxxconn and Zotac mini pc barebones (no idea if these work).
Do you guys have any recommendations?
I preffer sd card as storage but I'm open to opinions.
Note I'm not an expert at these jsut barely try to install it on my old laptop but was unable to due to hw not being compatible.
