BananaPi already sells boards with same CPU for around $100 with maybe $15-20 extra for case

https://docs.banana-pi.org/en/BPI-F3/BananaPi_BPI-F3

Is it doing anything different ? I assume at least made in US so it can be sold as router and not dev board ?

freedomben•1h ago
Are the banana pi boards able to run a mainline kernel or close to it? I have a memory of getting real close to buying one of those, and then reading a comment on HN about having to run their Frankenstein setup
dwood_dev•32m ago
Given the similarities in port layout (just missing a HDMI and USB3 header), and that the case is nearly identical, I would guess that this router probably is a custom run of the exact same BananaPi board without those headers. Both also use MiniPCIe in 2026, which is a bit of an odd decision.
c0balt•31m ago
The page linked above contains links to their bootloader and Linux kernel tree (6.1 apparently), so chances are rather low.

> Ethernet: 1 WAN Gb, 1 LAN Gb

Really? In 2026? Pass.

It needs to be _at_ _least_ two SFP+.

annoyingnoob•1h ago
Single WAN, Single LAN, is not actually what I would (or do) use for "home-based self-hosting". That hosted stuff gets its own network.
zokier•1h ago
that is what vlans are for. but having only gigabit ports is limiting here.
fmajid•56m ago
RISC-V is quite wimpy this far, so it’s not even clear if it can saturate a gigabit with features turned on. The one benefit is that it doesn’t have Intel IME/AMT, AMD PSP or ARM TrustZone backdoors built-in, but I would be extremely surprised if the Chinese SpaceMiT CPU didn’t have Chinese backdoors of its own.
Melatonic•45m ago
Exactly - seems like the only big thing going for it

That seems worth paying for. How could china hurt me more than my own government?

annoyingnoob•8m ago
VLANs would appear to defeat the ease of use aspect here. Plus that means you need managed switches, and know how to use them.

Turris Omnia NG is also "open source" and has 2x 10 Gbps SFP+ and 4x 2.5 Gbps ethernet ports. StartWRT and Turris OS are both forks of OpenWRT, which is kind of annoying. The Turris project has been around a long time and has an active community.
MisterTea•11m ago
Quick glance of their page only mentions Turris OS being built on open source. If I can't blow away Turris OS and install whatever, then it's not open and uninteresting.

Awesome.

NelsonMinar•38m ago
Is Start9 a well known company? The page by itself seems indistinguishable from a scam, but maybe they have a reputation that justifies their asking for $250,000?
sunshine-o•7m ago
It is not well know but I heard good thing about what they do.

It is very similar to Umbrel [0].
