- CameronNemo 5y agoI tried on my rock64 and only got ~900 Mbps haha. Rpi CPU is beefier, though.
- forty 5y agoYes there a a bunch of good rk3328 based board with 2 Gb eth ports. If you need something beefier there is the rk3399 based boards (pine64's rockpro64 has only a single Ethernet port but there is for example the nanopi r4s which has 2). I'm not sure what's the heat is like if you do gigabit NAT with them though :)
- zokier 5y agoThis RK3568 board looks interesting, but I have no idea if "firefly" is any decent vendor; that is generally the problem with these random chinese boards. https://en.t-firefly.com/product/industry/rocrk3568pc.html https://en.t-firefly.com/product/industry/rocrk3568pc.html RK3568 has 2xGbe built-in, and the board has additionally a Wifi 6 chip (broadcom), seems like pretty ideal router platform to me. There are even some hints that it might have half-decent mainline support, but who knows really though..

You can just use a spare laptop with less cost, more performance, and neglegible energy cost differences unless your electric bills are very high rates.
- zokier 5y agoDid you miss the part where this subthread was about boards with 2 (or more) network interfaces? none of the pine64 boards fill that basic criteria
- GhettoComputers 5y agoYes I did not see that sorry.
- CameronNemo 5y agoRadxa rock pi 3 is an rk3568 board I think. Although I don't think it has two ports :/
