Mini-PC, EQ12 16GB DDR5 500GB SSD, Intel Alder Lake-N100 (up to 3.4GHz), 2.5G Dual LAN Mini-Computer Supports WiFi6, BT5.2, USB3.2, 4K@60Hz Triple Display, Home-Server/Network Firewall

Excelente. Estou usando com proxmox para virtualizar o pfsense. Eu havia comprado um firewall appliance da china e so tive problemas. Esse funciona muito bem, esquenta bem menos. Recomendo

Description says 16GB RAM and N150 processor, but the received device is of 12GB RAM and N95 processor. Returned. The device is a junk and better go for ThinkCenter or OptiPlex.

I bought this as I needed a router capable of 2.5Gbps for future internet speed upgrades and I did not want to spend $300+ dollars on a "gaming wifi router", or even more on a business solution. I presently have Gigabit fiber internet but it does provide a little overhead so I wanted to be able to make use of the extra speeds, but I didn't want to raw dog the internet so a router was needed. My fiber box only provides 2 IPs and no way of accessing the admin portal, making a router a necessity before branching out my network. I installed OPNsense on this machine after activating Windows on the included NVME, and replacing it with a spare NVME I had laying around. OPNsense installed like a charm on this little machine and both 2.5Gbps were recognized. I haven't noticed any issues with usability and it does a fantastic job of maintaining sub-70 degree temps. It's almost entirely quiet, so much so that I sometimes feel the need to check and make sure it's still running. From the brief time I spent fooling around inside Windows 11 on it, everything was snappy and usable. I imagine this would make a great mini PC for almost anyone. I can see it being a super useful streaming box for media, or for streaming Steam games in-network. Pros: 1. Dual 2.5Gbps ethernet ports for setting it up as a router 2. Quiet 3. Portable, if you need it 4. Dual HDMI 5. Even has a Type-C port 6. 2.5" SATA hookup for extra storage, should you need it Cons: 1. Getting to the internal NVME and RAM slots is a little difficult as the screw locations require thinner screwdrivers 2. The SATA connector attachment and ribbon cable seem like they could break easily when attempting to change/upgrade the RAM and/or NVME 3. Only 1 stick of RAM on the 16GB version, so you'd get better performance in Windows with dual channel. Overall, I like this thing and I may end up getting another one to fiddle around with for virtualization or for Steam game streaming to my living room.

I’m seriously impressed with this Beelink EQ14 Mini PC. Right now, it’s running my Arista NG / Untangle firewall setup like a champ — IPS, NAT, ACLs, all of it. It chews through traffic without hesitation and stays cool, quiet, and steady the whole time. Before that, it was my OPNsense box, and it handled that job just as effortlessly. It eats threats — nom, nom, nom — without breaking a sweat. Before becoming my edge protection (basically a digital condom with a PhD in security), this little Beelink was my mini office desktop, and it rocked it on the interwebs. Multiple browser tabs, streaming, remote sessions — it didn’t care. Smooth as butter the whole time. The Intel N150 chip and dual 2.5G LAN ports make it perfect for serious networking, and it still sips power like a pro. It’s compact, quiet, and efficient — the kind of setup you forget is even running until you realize how much it’s doing behind the scenes. Just keep expectations realistic — this isn’t a gaming rig. You’re not going to be running the latest AAA titles or cranking out high-end graphics. But for firewall duty, office tasks, streaming, and day-to-day computing, it absolutely shines. If you’re looking for a small, power-efficient beast that can handle both firewall and desktop duty, this little box punches way above its weight class.

This is a nice little unit I am going to repurpose into my main router after I tinker some more. In trials so far, it's just enough overkill for OPNsense duty. In Plex Media Server duty w/ a 4TB laptop mechanical hard drive installed it hard no problems... until I asked it to display subtitles. I had this set up at a house with much better TV reception than my main home. For just serving up files it's all you need and tbh, still overkill. The moment you need to burn-in subtitles one a single stream (required for all OTA closed captioning), the poor n100 starts screaming. It can handle one instance... and then it starts getting dodgy on commercial detection and if you fire up a second stream w/subtitles it's game over and stutter city. It has enough oomph for audio trascoding for Roku clients but any sort of subs and you're done. I retired it from Plex OTA server duty after 6 months of service. I was running Ubuntu 24.04 LTS fwiw. When hardware subtitles burn-in becomes a thing, this will be enough for any and all probably for a dozen clients but until then, be wary for this particular use case. Like I said earlier, it's really promising as a router; probably the best use case
