Shuttle ds61
-
IP stats after a week.
-
In March Shuttle will start shipping DS61 v1.1 with two more USB 2.0 ports on the front.Also a new BIOS is available that during S3 sleep mode, the power consumption is dropped from 10W(old
DS61) to 5W(new DS61-v1.1) to fulfill the new EU requirement. -
I did read about that yes :) Does it run on the same hardware aside from that?
I tried running the 2.1 beta but I think it's far too buggy to run in production as I would get an IP but had no internet, and the 2.0.2 version doesn't work at all because pfsense need at least 1 working interface.I'm now running an esx version on it as it supported all hardware automatically ( which is a miracle on itself seeing vmware does not support much consumer hardware :) )
And I'm now running pfsense inside esx for about 3 days without any problems.

Does it run on the same hardware aside from that?
The bios file is exactly the same:
sum DS61D000-1.203/DOS/DS61D000.203 DS61D000.203/DOS/DS61D000.203
63712 4096 DS61D000-1.203/DOS/DS61D000.203
63712 4096 DS61D000.203/DOS/DS61D000.203so my guess is the MB is exactly the same.

a P2P load next to a cpu graph on a ds61 running 2.0.2 non-nano amd64
-
another P2P test, this time showing lots of connections
and continue to have a good experience with two RealTek 8111E -

So this is just a bare bones system? How much am I looking (ball park) once I buy components for home user? give price range from low end components to higher end?
-
Just below $300.
Besides the DS61 you need CPU, RAM, (mSATA-) SSD.

Looks like Newegg has some ds61 v1.1 in-stock.

A DS61 blends into the average low voltage wall.
-
It really ties the room together, does it not? :D
-
Are those mouse traps near the precariously dangling Dell power adapter?
The natural wood background is very nice.
-
To catch unwary power supply thieves! ;)

Interesting "average low voltage.. mouse trapped" wall there ;)
A bit off-topic, could you throw some "low voltage" light (pun intended..lol) on the top black box which has a company logo of ZON and the green boards hooked to a grey box on the top left.

I bought the Shuttle ds61 V1.1 which is slightly different from yours, but did you have any installation problems? I can't get passed VLAN and WAN setup after install. It says it does not detect any devices, so I'm assuming pfSense does not see the two onboard NICs. Had any problems with that?
Thanks
