TOPTON Twin Lake N150 Fanless Soft Router: 4×2.5G NICs, AES-NI, pfSense OPNsense Firewall Appliance
Intel’s Twin Lake platform brings improved power efficiency to the N150 core, keeping idle consumption to single-digit watts while sustaining enough compute headroom for stateful firewall rules, Suricata IDS, and WireGuard or OpenVPN tunnels simultaneously. Four 2.5G NICs built on Intel controllers handle multi-WAN load balancing and LAN segmentation at full wire speed, a practical upgrade from legacy 1G appliances that bottleneck modern fiber connections. Hardware AES-NI encryption offloads cipher operations from the main CPU cores, so VPN throughput scales with your line speed rather than processor utilization — a measurable advantage you notice immediately. The fanless soft router appliance housing uses a ribbed aluminum extrusion that channels heat to the outer surface passively, qualifying it for deployment in enclosed racks, cabinets, and dust-prone environments without filter maintenance. Select your preferred CPU variant — N150, J6412, J5005, or 7305 — and order directly from the official TOPTON store for fast shipping and full manufacturer support.

Nice n150, may get a little bit hot but expected with n150.

Very good product, works perfectly with OPNSense. Processor temperature stable at 52°C with 20% CPU load and 20°C. RAM and SSD purchased second-hand with no compatibility issues with this mini PC.

I keep coming back for more for reasons i can’t explain
If you buy one of these, take it apart, wipe off the old “gunk” cooling paste and apply some of your own. I guess old chicken fat would be better than what they ship these with. Anyways; they run way to hot if you run them “stock”. Like everyone else i run them with proxmox (go buy a license) and opnsense (license, license, license!). If you save money on hardware (like this) spend your saved money on licenses to keep free software free as in freedom. Thanks for your attention.
