I just ordered a GL.iNet GL-B1300 ($80USD) to replace a totally ancient WRT54 (been running the same kernel since 2007!). I'm hoping to push 1G through it, but it certainly will be better than the ~35M I get now! Let me know if interested in the results and I'll unicast. For higher performance, someone (David?) mentioned https://www.solid-run.com/product-tag/clearcloud-8k/ which has some very interesting performance results for something costing ~$500USD: https://wiki.lfnetworking.org/download/attachments/327837/DP%20Benchmarking%...

I do not know if a raspberry pi can achieve 1gb forwarding speeds. Just haven't tried it at all. Recently I've been looking at `Firewall micro appliances` listed on amazon. Those look intriguing as that they have decent cpu's/memory and more than 2 nics You'll have to install your linux/bsd operating system choice and FRR but those look very interesting from my perspective.

Greetings
I cannot find the question in the 'frog' environment and the web isn't very useful so far - - - - so I'm going to those that live this networking stuff.
Cheap routers seem to not work very well. Decent routers aren't cheap?
What are the system requirements to use the 'frrouting' universe in the creating of a good quality but still home brew router?
(Will something like a 64 bit Raspberry Pi work? How could I achieve 1000 MB network speeds on such a system? Likely more questions later.)
If this is not an appropriate place to ask this - - - please do advise!
