Tometek TC300 TTG Mini-PC/Server

[@Ahassan1977]

Hi There is a similar device serve the home reviewed a few month back it was a Qotom q20332g9 with the same processor but more ports

[@homenetworkguy]

Yep! I thought that Qotom box seemed interesting too but I don’t think I would want to use it for something like OPNsense. Seems like the throughput is lower than I expected on the 10G interfaces in OPNsense because of the Atom CPU (and perhaps FreeBSD driver support?) but it is capable of sending 10G with a single stream and receiving 10G when there are multiple streams being sent to the box.

I bought a c3758R Qotom box last week hoping to install OPNsense Since it will be similar to pfsense on the netgate 8200 box

[@Ahassan1977]

But almost at half price

[@Ahassan1977]

How would you compare the performance of pfsense on netgate 8200 to OPNsense on box like this?

[@homenetworkguy]

I would have to test pfSense to see if it fares better. Maybe FreeBSD 14 will help but not sure. OPNsense will be on FreeBSD 14 soon. I was getting about 3Gbps. Hardware offloading with multiple streams seemed to get me up to 6Gbps. It’s possible it will saturate 10Gbps if you have multiple streams of network traffic. I didn’t get to do a ton of testing yet. Also I’m going to try the box with some SFP+ modules that Tometek is going to send me soon.

Just curious is there a way that you could use the SIM card slots as a voip gateway?

[@homenetworkguy]

I’m not sure if it can be used as a VOIP gateway since I’m not familiar with how that works.. I believe it has 2 SIM slots so you can have both 4G and 5G cellular Internet (at least that’s how it’s advertised on the spec sheet).
