Look at what arrived today! 😄😄

What is this?

possible scene in the future:
"can someone tell me what interesting thing I can do with my dusty unused Pi?"

Just for fun.

@hoggchan or: do you remember when this small device belonged to a botnet in aim to destroy humanity?

@tomi145 Ye wondering too, looks like a Pi but that many Ethernet ports...?

Seems like it has usb type-c ports

It's a Banana Pi R1 which is like a Raspberry Pi but with an Ethernet controller so it can act as a switch and a WiFi router. It also has a dual core CPU and 1 GB or ram. For the most curious out there: http://www.banana-pi.org/r1.html
Forgot to mention the SATA connector for a 2.5 HDD and also the GPIO

@Gianlu So you'd be able to create a firewalled router out of this I guess? 😍

@linuxxx and a NAS. I'm planning to use it for quite a lot of things!

@Gianlu What did you pay for it if I may ask?

@linuxxx 76$ on AliExpress with the case and two 3dB antennas.

@Gianlu Fair enough, thanks!

How is it so far? I am thinking about using one as a firewall

Oh, banana pi router. Wanted to try one of thoose.
How is the performance with pfsense?

@NMerz @Linux right now I'm at this stage. I'll post again about it whenever I'll get something installed on it

Are there any kernel sources for this? Is it 64 bit armv8 or armhf/armv7?
