- | My current router has an Intel N3700 CPU, maximum 8GB ram, procured in 2016, which in 2023 is becoming slow and resource limited. I also run a VM with Docker containers for a backup Bind9 DNS and backup Kea DHCP. As my upstream (WAN) internet speed is about 65Mb/s down and 17Mb/s up this router is still suitable for purpose. I suspect it will not be limiting until the available WAN speeds are above 500 - 1000Mbps. | + | My current router has an Intel N3700 CPU, maximum 8GB ram, procured in 2016, which in 2024 is becoming slow to use, but still functions well as a sub gb/s router.

My main home server is based upon an Intel Atom C3750 server, this is still currently adequately meeting my needs. I have upgraded with a 2.5Gb/s PCIe card. I have not been able to find a good replacement for this machine at this time. It was designed as a server, again an i5-1335U is in many ways superior, CPU cores and threads, CPU and memory speed and bandwidth, however memory is not ECC and memory is limited to 64GB, neither of which is probably a problem for me, as I am currently only using 32GB. Power consumption is similar. The biggest problem is that I have not been able to date find an i5-1335U motherboard with 4+ SATA ports and PCIE expansion slot, most are laptop boards, router boards or industrial embedded type boards that do not have the functionality that I am after. | My main home server is based upon an Intel Atom C3750 server, this is still currently adequately meeting my needs.
