Mini PC shuttle

Hi
I came across this item and wonder if it's enough powerful for pfsense, has all the necessary features and is not hindering me in any way.I'll probably not run the most advanced setup on it, as there is anouther router before pfsense but let this topic alone!!

Could be a nice piece of hardware and for the LAN you could be using a
vlan capable switch. Not bad. -

So you think that processor and the pc overall is good enough for pfsense?
*DL30N - Intel N100 4 / 4 - 3.4 GHz - 6 MB - 6 W - max. 16 GB DDR5-4800 *
Fast RAM not so hard electric power sucking and up to 16 GB RAM is enough
for all and nothing. So why not? I would not expect "wonders" from that box,
but it is also 4G / LTE ready and together with a switch it should be running
also for more. Only my thoughts on this device.Integrated Intel UHD graphics with 4K support
You may be able to go with the USB memstick VGA installer with a
monitor together.Nice box give it a shot.

Awesome, thx for your opinion! -

2x Intel 226LM – 2,5 Gbit/s
Also with this ports no problems at all.If you have not 1 GBit/s WAN and want to run squid & SquidGuard with ClamAV,
Snort or Suricata it might be a good firewall for sure. -
Yeah I just have 200mbit WAN, but pfsense runs behind another router, so that won't even be a problem, it's more the lan side where 2.5 gb will become handy later.
