(double-check they are the same motherboard though). I have no way to check for the same motherboard, except by disasembling the device and trusting any printed information that might or might not be there. But it's worth a try. My supplier is already looking into this issue of possible BIOS uppgrades. > On 2010-08-13, Toni Mueller <openbsd-m...@oeko.net> wrote: > > Having said that, what is the current common wisdom for reliable small > > CPE boxes that are reliable enough to be safely upgraded remotely, and > > will be safe to upgrade for several upcoming releases? > > Alix? X7SLA? Depends totally what you're looking for... I'm looking for a low-power box that can handle up to some 15-20 MBit/s of IPSEC traffic with ease, has two or more nics, and not much else. I'd prefer to have 1 gig of RAM, though. Low power means that I really want to stay below 30 watts, but preferably come close to 10 watts. The current machines with C7, 1 gig of RAM and notebook drive suck some 22 watts. Kind regards, --Toni++
