Help!!! This is a cute little router right??

I'm showing it to Cyan and she says it's not cute!! How do I convince her it's cute? 😭😭

@lina Those are the ones with mips64 processor right? 
@koakuma No, that one is MIPS32! This one is MIPS64~ ^^
@lina Ohhhh I have that exact model!
I should probably get into installing OpenBSD or other OS on it lol

@koakuma I never used this one because I realized they hadn't implemented the software(?) fastpath for... I think it was 4in6 tunneling? And that would've meant no line rate 1G routing for my internet...

The ER-X is more of an L3 switch in that regard and can handle the fastpath in some kind of configurable hardware thing including the 4in6. It was my main home router for many years until I moved and upgraded to 10G ^^

@lina I... bought it just because it is a MIPS and it is said that those boxes can be convinced into running a normal desktop Unix; I've never used it to actually route things around

I mean a gigabit router feels way too overkill when the ISP only gives some 20-ish Mbits/s 

@koakuma I had gigabit at my last place and I have 10gig now so... ^^;;

But yes they can run normal Unix stuff! ^^
