## Hardware
Protectli Vault Pro VP2420.
* CPU: [Intel Celeron J6412](https://ark.intel.com/content/www/us/en/ark/products/214758/intel-celeron-processor-j6412-1-5m-cache-up-to-2-60-ghz.html) (4 × 2.0GHz)
* RAM: [8GB Crucial DDR4-2666 SO-DIMM `CT8G4SFRA266.M8FRS`](https://www.crucial.com/memory/ddr4/ct8g4sfra266)
* PSU: Channel Well Technology 60W (12V, 3.333A)
* SSD: 120GB Protectli SATA M.2
* NIC: 4 Intel i225-V (2.5GbE)
* Wireless: Intel Wireless-AC 9260
* FINTEK F81232 USB to UART bridge (for easy serial console)
* Dasharo coreboot firemware
## Purpose
It is the main router for my home network.
## Misc Notes
While it has 16GB of eMMC (unlike the 8GB advertised on Protectlis product page),
I dont trust the eMMC enough to run the system from it.
## Notes on Wireless (copied from fuukos previous README)
TL;DR: Never try to build an AP yourself, just get a dedicated AP and use OpenWrt.
* Wireless cards are M.2 A+E key and dont fit in an M.2 E key slot,
because apparently using USB for Bluetooth is a good idea.
* Intel Wireless cards only support AP mode on 2.4GHz [because of broken LAR](https://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=206469).
* Almost all wireless cards only support one band at the same time (no dual-band AP).
* Realtek Wireless cards dont work at all (no wonder).
* Hostapds configuration file is … interesting.
* Regulatory stuff is fun.
