      Just wanted to give a shout out to Yanling for their after sales service.

      My first pfsense box I bought was a 4Port fanless from a company in Hong Kong on aliexpress (which i wont name). Had a bad flash in an expirement gone wrong. Managed to establish the box was in fact a Yanling N10 and reached out to Joe Mu at Yanling (iwilltech). He didn't hesitate to send me a copy of the bios and mb manual.

      The box served me well for a long time.

      FYI - on a separate note, same with qotom, the first thing to do with these boxes is remove the thermal pad between the heatsink and cpu and replace it with a good quality thermal paste. Dropped 10deg on my devices by doing that.

        This should be done at many of the Chinese mini PCs,
        10 degree cooler is really good! Also having hands on
        the latest BIOS should be nice to have.
