Re: [tor-relays] Running gigabit relay

By "NUC" I was meaning the low-end Celeron boxes. A NUC with a i7-8650U 
should work for Tor and a dedicated AP. It won't be as good as a desktop 
or server CPU, but for your use case it's fine as a relay and AP/router.

However, the built-in Wi-Fi is usually only a single band at once.
