      OK, so finally I'm going to buy in Amazon. It is cheapest

      Thanks for your build wiretap (I see your post too) but I'm looking for a board with HDMI because maybe someday I need another box and I cand re-use this one like HTPC.

      With this one: http://www.amazon.com/Jetway-Intel-Network-JBC200F9N-E4IN-B-ADE4INLANG/dp/B00X6GPUO6/ref=pd_sim_sbs_147_3?ie=UTF8&refRID=0ZN28MFCV1Y2YC5DJEFE it will be perfect. I have to buy more ram, ssd and access point (I don't need the switch now with 5 ports). 400€ with everthing.
      Is it fanless?.

      I will take a look for more boxes in Amazon under 300$, but I think this one is perfect.

      Thanks!

          I'm going to use the board Jetway NF9HG-2930. If I need HDMI output in future, I'll buy a PCI-HDMI card.

          So, my list is:

          • Jetway NF9HG-2930 - http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B00XNR4HE2/

          • 2 x 4GB Crucial SO-Dimm DDR3 1.35V

          • 1 x SSD mSATA 60GB aprox.

          • AC-DC adapter 12V 5A 60W

          • m350 case

          I'm going to order everything in Spain. But I can't find the jetway NF9HG-2930 here. Do you know some website with free/cheap shipment?

          am I missing something?.

          Thanks.

            1 x 8GB Crucial SO-Dimm DDR3 1.35V [52€]

            If would be prefer to use 2 x 4 GB because 8 GB is the maximum so both RAM slot get filled.

              That jetway board does not have an ATX power connector so you don't need a pico psu. Get the 60w power brick with 5mm/2.5mm barrel connector and you plug it directly into the rear I/O connector.

                  Finally I ordered the jetway, case m350 and power supply to Logic Supply. Products + shipping 300€.

                  CarTFT and MiniPC have the jetway sold out.

                  I will buy the SSD and RAM in Spain.

                  SO, thank you guys!!. Now, I have to wait, and after mount the hardware it will be time for the real fight: setup firewall, ids, ap…

                  Thanks!

                        Try to get DD-WRT on it.

                        Why? He is just using it as an access point? - unnecessary complication

                          For sure Good question at all, perhaps you see it from a different side and owns another
                          point of view. But if I can get DD-WRT on a device I would be even prefer this compared
                          to the original firmware of the most WiFi routers and/or WiFi APs, related to the rich number
                          of functions, the given options and the rich feature set, my point of view.

                            Both DD-WRT or OpenWRT allow usage of VLANs which may be very useful. Factory firmare doesn't.

                              I have everything setup and running. 61ºC is the normal temperature, I'll post some statistics when I have time ;)

                              Thanks.
