I am missing something, how are you going to use a NUC as your
router? Dongles?<br>

<div>Costs just about as much as a decent 802.11ac consumer
router. As far as I can tell, the wireless chipset support "AP
Mode" in Linux. I'd probably get a USB ethernet adapter to
connect it to my external network, though. I'd use the
on-board ethernet for my internal network.</div>

<div>Yeah, I'm thinking this might just be done by the end of
the year in my house. I'm liking this plan a lot. Plus, I'd
actually be able to save my bandwidth logs instead of losing
them every time my router reboots.</div>

</span>The RPi is a poor choice, because it only
has a single USB port that's<br>
not much of a performer in its own right. (All
user visible ports plus<br>
the ethernet port are connected via an internal
hub)<br>
<br>
(I tried to use a RPi as a hotspot for a camper,
and the USB performance<br>
was so bad the wifi cards kept locking up under
even light loads..)<br>
