Recommend Operating System
I. Preferred Systems: Lightweight Networking Devices
1. OpenWRT x86
Why Choose It?
✅ Ultra-lightweight: RAM usage <200MB, ideal for low-power CPUs like N3160.
✅ Rich plugin ecosystem: Supports SQM QoS, AdGuard Home, WireGuard VPN.
Use Cases:
-
Smart home router (multiple device connections)
-
Guest network isolation + ad blocking
2. OPNsense / pfSense
Why Choose It?
✅ AES-NI support: Can run IPsec VPN (~200Mbps throughput).
⚠️ Performance limit: Best for sub-500Mbps firewall rules or basic policy routing.
Use Cases:
-
Small office firewall
-
Home multi-WAN load balancing (dual 100Mbps broadband)
II. Lightweight Servers & Home Applications
3. Debian / Ubuntu Server (No GUI)
Why Choose It?
✅ Low overhead: CLI mode uses <300MB RAM.
✅ Docker-friendly: Can run Pi-hole, Nextcloud, Jellyfin (hardware decoding requires config).
Use Cases:
-
Lightweight NAS (Samba/NFS)
-
Local Git server or dev/test environment
4. Home Assistant OS
Why Choose It?
✅ Smart-home optimized: Supports Zigbee/Z-Wave USB devices.
✅ Smooth performance on N3160: Can handle 30-50 smart devices.
Performance Tip:
-
Avoid running too many automation rules or camera analytics simultaneously.
III. Media Playback & Embedded Scenarios
5. LibreELEC (Kodi)
Why Choose It?
✅ Intel HD 400 GPU acceleration: Supports 1080p H.265/VP9 decoding, partial 4K support (testing needed).
✅ Extremely low power consumption, ideal for 24/7 operation.
Use Cases:
-
Home HTPC (local media playback)
-
Digital signage (info screens in stores/restaurants)
6. DietPi
Why Choose It?
✅ Highly optimized: Debian-based, pre-configured for lightweight services (Plex Server, WordPress).
✅ One-click installation for 100+ software packages.
Use Cases:
-
Raspberry Pi alternative (x86-compatible)
-
Minimalist network storage (WebDAV/FTP)
IV. Industrial & Specialized Devices
7. Yocto Linux / Buildroot
Why Choose It?
✅ Customizable kernel: Only includes necessary drivers, ideal for embedded systems.
✅ Supports Watchdog auto-recovery.

The process is as follows:
| Phase | Stage | Key Activities & Deliverables |
|---|---|---|
| 1 | Inquiry | • Client submits detailed customization requirements |
| 2 | Requirements Confirmation | • Supplier provides feasibility previews • Client approves technical specifications |
| 3 | Feasibility Analysis | • Technical validation of design/production • Risk assessment report |
| 4 | Quotation | • Detailed cost breakdown • Production timeline with milestones |
| 5 | Place Order | • Contract execution with payment terms • Final requirement verification (double-check) |
| 6 | Mass Production | • Bulk manufacturing launch • Quality control during production |
| 7 | Pre-Delivery Audit | • Export documentation (HS code, invoice) • Declared value verification • Final QC inspection |
| 8 | Delivery & Support | • Logistics coordination • Real-time shipment tracking • Post-delivery support |
