Hey everyone, I’m a student on a budget looking to buy a Radxa SBC to use as a dedicated OpenWrt router. My main goal is to completely eliminate bufferbloat and keep my ping stable. (This SBC will act strictly as a wired routing unit. I will use a separate AP for all Wi-Fi connections.)

My options are-

1. Radxa E20C- 2GB RAM, No eMMC 32$

2. Radxa E52C- 2GB RAM, 16GB eMMC 63$

3. Radxa E52C- 4GB RAM, 32GB eMMC 85+$

My Network Specs:

Current Plan: 80Mbps (250-350Mbps VAS).

Future Plan: Upgrading to a Public IPv4 plan later, 40Mbps which caps at 200 Mbps VAS.

Load: 2 phones, light workload and competitive eSports

My Questions:

Will the cheaper E20C handle SQM properly or will the processor bottleneck? Is running the router OS on a MicroSD card reliable enough? I want to save money as a student but don't want to buy something that lags under SQM. Which option is the sweet spot? Thanks!

Hello, I’m based in Bangladesh and I’m trying to purchase the Radxa E52C, but I haven’t been able to find it locally. Most Chinese retailers appear to be out of stock, and while it is available on AliExpress, the prices are quite high except for the official store. I’ve also checked ALLNET China, where the base price is lower, but I’m unsure about the total cost once shipping and forwarding are included.

Could anyone guide me on the most cost-effective way to purchase this device? For example, sourcing it from local markets in China and using a freight forwarder, or any other reliable and affordable method.

Hey guys, I'm currently in Japan. Where to find SBCs in here?

How many of you think 4-2-2-2 is dead after the phase update? Long Ball Counter isn't exactly the same anymore, and the gameplay mechanics feel different. Just wanted to see how many pro players (especially mobile players) are genuinely struggling after the update. I've already seen way too many people complaining on Facebook.

I've been in Division 1 since yesterday's phase update, and my coach is Fabio Capello, But throughout the game, I felt his playstyle was nerfed; CFs made no forward runs, and his link-up passes were readily interceptable. So, how many of you agree with me, or is it just me?
