PC-engines APU2 - is there a successor (planned)?
-
Hi,
my current ALIX is closing in on ten years of service.
I'm thinking of replacing it with an APU2.
But if something better arrived in a couple of months, I guess I could wait it out. -
What are you CPU/throughput needs? Any specific hardware requirements?
We have a new model coming in the next month or so that would probably be a good fit.
The MBT-2220/4220 would be good if you need something sooner than that. They're great little boxes. Only two interfaces, though. New model coming has three.

Currently, I certainly don't need much more than the 2008 ALIX I have.
Because 20/2 VDSL.But hopefully, it will last for another decade or more and FFTH might actually arrive here by then (or I move).
I think I'm mostly limited by the lack of RAM today, so I'd like to get something with 4 GB.
Unfortunately, Netgate products are much, much more expensive here (.ch) than PC-Engines - but I haven't fully made up my mind, yet.
Only one local Netgate partner shows the hardware on their homepage/shop - and the Minnow-Boards are not there, so I don't even know what they cost.
