=== The Better Alternative: Repurpose an Old Desktop PC === Instead of risking your project with unknown mini PCs, consider using an old desktop computer: # '''Reliability:''' A 10-12 year old desktop is likely more reliable than no-name mini PCs. # '''Choice of Network Card:''' Desktop PCs offer PCI Express slots for additional network cards, so YOU can choose the network interface card for your setup. You often do not know what chipsets are used in the no-name-mini-PCs. '''pfSense''' & other FreeBSD-based routers are sensitive to poor-quality chipsets. # '''Cost-Effective:''' You can re-purpose an old desktop you already have & save money on purchasing new hardware. <span id="choosing-the-right-network-interface-cards-nics"></span>
