I know it's not out yet (Soon™), but I'm very interested in this new microPC, smaller than a NUC, with dual GBe interfaces AND 802.11ac card: http://www.fit-pc.com/web/products/fitlet/fitlet-i/
And as it's linux supported (from Linux Mint), the drivers should be available...

According to the spec sheets :
fitlet-i Barebone
AMD A4-6400T x86-64 SoC
64-bit quad core
1.0GHz (boost up to 1.6GHz)
1x SO-DIMM 204-pin DDR3 SDRAM memory slot
Up to 8GB DDR3-1333
1x mSATA slot up to 6 Gbps (SATA 3.0)
1x eSATA (shared) up to 6 Gbps (SATA 3.0)
AMD Radeon R3 Graphics
Realtek ALC886 HD audio codec
2x GbE LAN ports (RJ-45)
LAN1: Intel I211 GbE controller
LAN2: Intel I211 GbE controller
WLAN 802.11ac (2.4/5GHz dual band Intel 7260HMW)
Bluetooth 4.0
2x USB 3.0
4x USB 2.0
1x Serial communication port
Micro-SD slot support SD/SDHC/SDXC cards
1x micro SIM slot (6 pins)
1x Half/Full-size mini-PCIe socket (high profile)
The Intel NICs should be fine, and the WLAN/BlueTooth card is supported by the iwlwifi kernel driver, so that should be fine too.

Would be a nice router to run PFsense on. Might be PFsense has the required drivers on board. _________________ linksys E3000 (modded WRT610N-V2)@27453K3-Mega

Has to be supported by FreeBSD 8.3 to run PFSENSE and IIRC it is not.

Yeah, i just found out that freebsd actually has a pretty poor trackrecord on supporting newer wireless devices. _________________ linksys E3000 (modded WRT610N-V2)@27453K3-Mega

Well, it seems that OpenWRT will be able to support it just fine, including the wireless. While it might not be pfsense, it's good enough, I guess. Also not as good as DD-WRT, but it'll do.
