Looking for an expert opinion

Sep 11, 2004 5 Replies

I've been wanting to create a low-cost router powered by freebsd, i can't seem to decide on what embedded hardware to use. Does anyone have any suggestions? i am on a very tight budget. I've been searching around but cant find anything under $150 that runs optimal on freebsd



Thanks for your advice,

Does it run freebsd?

Hi, James,

Are you married to FreeBSD? You might consider NetBSD, instead. Very similar stack, etc. but supported on far more targets.

HTH,

Don,

No I am not married to FreeBSD but i do prefer it :) NetBSD would be fine also so would linux cost is the most important factor, if it can run either one of the 3 it would be perfect we are looking for a board that will cost around $20 something similar to what LinkSys uses for their residential routers
