Hi,

I'll ping a z83 mini-PC (I haven't had an occasion yet to test if it
can do 1Gb/s), and some wifi routers:

- turris omnia
- turris mox
- Zyzel NBG6617
- TP-Linnk Archer C7
- ubiquity Edge Router Lite

and maybe a few others if they fit in my luggage.

In addition to zorun's specifications, we're also looking for decent
performance with wireguard VPN. This is a bit out of the radio scope, but more
and more community networks in France are also aiming at providing a
"clean" acces through a VPN on top of the existing broadband
operators.

See you in Saint-Denis.
