FreeBSD router project

[codeinjection]

I like the part where we never get to see your FreeBSD running.

Spectacular video :D

[hades2k]

@itsbrad212 thx :)

[borglanparty]

love the paint I may paint my pfsense router that color someday...

[telesniper2]

lol enjoy your power bills

[MorkaGraven]

@telesniper2 I used to have one of those machines, the PSU was about 100 watts max.

[telesniper2]

@MorkaGraven yeah, in other words 10x a normal router

[MorkaGraven]

@telesniper2 Hmm, my router is bigger again. It's just a huge server with DHCP properties attached to a switch. Of course, it has all the other benefits like NAT, firewall, DNS and general storage space so I can't really complain.

Great fw! This proves that u can revive old computers put them to work again with *nixes! What's the name of the music? great video!

[hades2k]

It's Antiloop - Start Rockin'

And thx for the comment :)

[boringbugz]

Look good mate. xD I'll do the same to my old computer if you dont mind xDD

[hades2k]

Thx :)

And no problem :P

[payperme]

the cool way to use a old hardware, and give it a great work!

[pcfxer]

Kills the vxWorks based Linksys routers that freak out when they have "too many" connections.

[Simba0000007]

I did the same with an old NetScout Fast Ethernet Probe. I didn't spraypaint it, but using old systems for new tasks sure can be fun.

Of course, I overkilled mine by adding:

2x Digital 4-Port 21143 PCI Cards

Allied Telesyn AT-2560FX PCI Card

Ralink 802.11g PCI Card

D-Link DGE-500T PCI Card

3Com 3C509B ISA Card

Quantum 6.8Gb IDE Hard Drive

384MB Memory

...and an old ISA Video Card. :)

[hades2k]

Sounds nice :)

[interwebjawn]

Nice I love seeing old hardware being put to good use.

[schlippy123]

whats thats, LED's, spreaypaint, an overdone video editing with an obnoxious song? who would've thought. I mean, its alright, but you could communicate that with two photos

[jokergd]

seriously, i second that

[meatloaf666999]

wow umm not soo exciting i mean come on a a 6 yo could spray paint somthing

[bunjit1]

but it takes a real dickhead to make a negative comment like yours

[Keys1337]

Orange is good for atleast a 10% performance bump.

[knuckleskin]

A nicely done job is the only reason I didn't give you one star, but really a waste of a video. Would have been more useful if it were a webpage.

[darkgrazen]

any idea if this runs hotter (uses more power) then say a router priced at $90-$120? Good colour choice.

[knuckleskin]

It'll certainly use more power, 200watt PSU, instead of a 20watt transformer, but you get so much more bang for your buck.

We used to have a Belkin POS in our house of 9 people. It crashed all the time when torrenting, had a useless interface and virtually no features. That all changed when we put in a IPCop distro PC in, not had any network outages, so many configurable options, and the case we got was so pretty.

[hades2k]

Thx :)

[0tanod]

so nice case

PLEASE TAKE A LOOK MY VIDEOS PLEASE SPECIALY CRIS TY A LOT

[coldironhands1]

how did you add the LEDs for the new NICs

[hades2k]

I removed the original LEDs and soldered on the one I now use on bit of wire and put them in the front..

[ijr900]

pimp my pc

[Alexzero77]

This wasn't the original IBM PC, but whatever. Nice work with the colors and lights. Though if I was you, I would clean the computer up and keep it as a PC since I'm a big collector.

[tjohearn]

"though if i was you, i would clean the comuter up and keep it as a PC since -IM- a big colector"

your him, not yourself... lol

[2DGUNNY]

its still gay

[xff]

I love this video, i'll spray my freebsd router too :) It looks so nice :))

[hades2k]

Thanks :)
