I have decided to move to Astaro from DD-WRT as I just need more control and security.
I wanted to have Intel atom level power usage but use a more powerfull CPU as I will be using AV and max out my 100mb connection at home all the time.
Passmark Scores of CPU's
T5600 1001
Atom D510 658
P4 @ 3.8ghz 637
Atom N270 304
I have purchased the following as new and am just waiting for the processor to arrive.
MSI Fuzzy 945GM1(2 Intel GB NIC's) $70
Intel T5600 @ 1.83 Mobile Core2Duo $40
WD Scorpio black 250gb $35
Antec ISK300-65w $60
1gb ddr2 had lying around
Grand total $205
So my questions are.
1. Approx. how much bandwidth will I get with all services on like AV?
2. Does the latest version (7.505) support Intel EIST? I have read that linux needs acpi-cpufreq and it is available in Linux kernel version 2.6.21 and later.
3. Will I see any real benefit or performance by installing more ram? If so in what area's?.
After I get everything up and running I will post power numbers using my killawatt.
