      I'm looking for the ultimate Travel / Off Grid / Emergency Operations security appliance that I can store and operate in a small Pelican case off DC power if AC is not available.  The SG-1000 is cute and affordable @ $149, but I just want a little more "oomph" in the same form factor.

      • Same or similar form factor as SG-1000.

      • Multi-core CPU.

      • Higher clocked CPU.

      • AES-NI support for future proofing (pfSense 2.5 and beyond).

      • Include 1-year Gold Subscription.

      • $199 price point possible?  ;)

        I've considered building a second generation on the Armada 3720

        2 cores @ 1.2GHz. (ARM64)
        has crypto offload (does what you want from AES-NI)

            Would this crypto offload satisfy pfSense 2.5.x's requirement?
