I’ve never touched one but 4 words into Google gave me the answer. The magic words I used was: intel compute stick headless
I do teach Google-fu and this first lesson was free.
Edit: was supposed to be answer to the other poster, not OP.
Anyways good luck on the compute stick OP, it can be almost what you want! It’s a pc with WiFi.
Another note, usually wired net connection is better for server usage, but afaik none of the compute sticks have an ethernet connector. But you can buy usb network cards which can give you better stability even on an usb2 port.
I have less issues with wireless devices at work than wired, but it could come down to our sd-access network being designed by literal monkeys.
But I think that in 2023 people should pick layer1 based on the use-case and not old sayings.
I had one quite some time ago so my memory is probably not perfect here. it was almost good enough for most things. I feel like there was an issue where it only had 32bit support for some stuff, but this was years ago.
I do remember it had decent support for Ubuntu out of the box.
It had a ton of bios updates when it first came out, so step one is I'd go make sure you've got at least a recent version.
