Lots of options were out of stock and the price is horrible these days, but I went ahead and picked up a protectli.

I suddenly find myself with two barely used Protectli fanless machines after attending the art show of a bike mechanic pal¹, and I think that's my physical NetBSD desktop machine question sorted

I have a 4 port protectli and after the long setup, the thing doesn't quit!
During lockdown I spent a lot of money on an awful Netgear router that has failed me ever since. Thanks to affordable networking equipment and open source software, I no longer live like that and neither do you. For @aftermath.site aftermath.site/opnsense-pro...

Cudy P5 with a clear mobile SIM 170mbps, (previous 20Mbps with sky)
Added the long idle Protectli Vault with pfsense and an ubiquiti nano AP
It's a good awful wired mess but works
P5 needs to be near a window which isn't ideal, but it'll do for now, I might look at an external antenna eventually

In a desperate attempt to see if I can get better internet speeds I signed up for a 5g sim only plan and bought a 5g router (cudy p5)
Desperate times and measures and all that.
It does give me the chance to configure the protectli vault I got ages ago 😳

You are more often than not better off investing 600$ in a standalone access point and a small firewall appliance (protectli/qotom), installing OPNSense, and calling it a day.
Way more secure, flexible and long lasting than consumer grade hardware whose goal is just to make a quick buck.

A used Protectli box… much faster than a raspberry pi but still pretty slow

Nice. Protectli is already on my list- I was hoping to find something a little less expensive, but at least that's one more vote for it.

I've definitely caught the travel router (mobile homelab?) bug! This is a Protectli running Proxmox with a virtualised OpenWRT hooked up to a 5G modem. Having a lot of fun with this one!

Currently having a lot of fun with virtualised OpenWRT on a @protectli VP2430.

numinit, Morgan, is an awesome guy. I've used his mesh network which runs off Protectli boxes and it works great.

Today's goal. Replace my HUNSN firewall appliance that I put together in 2023 that has a drive/drive controller going bad and has no after market support because... what's HUNSN?
Going in is a Protectli V1610 appliance. Should be a straighforward swap and export/import configuration. 🤞

The device itself is very light and compact, but works equally as well as my last Protectli box
I was also able to migrate my network controller to it with no issue. It is only single site though, so now I have a controller for friends and family (they use my controller over Tailscale), and one […]
