TLSense N5105L6: 6x 2.5Gbit LAN, N5105 CPU, 1TB NVMe SSD, 8GB RAM

TLSense routers are intended for customers needing high VPN throughput or IDS/IPS performance in addition to high routing performance and low latency. This model has roughly 5-6x better OpenVPN performance than APU.

Note, this router has very new I226-V network chips. Most operating systems already support it, but pfSense 2.6 CE does not. The next release of pfSense CE will support it, but until then, we suggest using OPNsense or OpenWRT.

Hardware supports OPNSense, OpenWRT, as well as Windows, Linux, OpenBSD, and other operating systems.

See the hardware benchmark to understand how this model compares to other routers in the webshop.

This model has a couple of quirks:

• The LAN ports are labeled from right to left
• The front panel is a slightly darker shade of gray than the back panel

Included in the box

• 1 x TLSense router
• 1 x Power adapter
• 1 x SATA cable

Tips:

• You can install a regular 2.5-inch SATA drive to extend storage to multiple TB. 
• Use the HDMI port to enter into BIOS. (press F11 at boot)
• If you want a different amount of storage or RAM, choose the "barebones" version and buy storage and memory separately.
