Heya there all!

I have a lil project with a customized build of openwrt and I need about 4 of the compute module 4’s, one with about 4G RAM and ideally at least 8GB eMMC.

I was intending to use them with the DF Robot IoT router carrier board for the sweet 2x1Gb interfaces.

I filled out the notify me from pishop.us and a couple others, but does anyone happen to know either good alternatives with about the same RAM, on board storage, and performance or a good place to pick some up?

If it’s an alternative, ideally a literal alternative since I already have the DFRobot interface boards. But, if it’s a reasonable price, performance, and it’s compatible with openwrt in about the same form factor I’m still open to it!

Oh and I’m also open to purchasing used ones even at MSRP, but I won’t give someone $200 for it like most scalpers want, lol.

Anyways, appreciate everyone’s time! Hope y’all are havin’ an awesome day. :)

I have heard some good things about the OrangePi, but I haven't tried it myself.

Hardware wise the orange pis are fine. I used one for years as a retro gaming machine. Then changed it to a NAS server for about 2 years and never had problem.
