Zimaboard2 OpenWrt Performance Test (2.5Gbps Routing, Wireguard and Power Consumption)
In this test, we are going to install OpenWrt 25 on the Zimaboard2 and check out its performances in WAN to LAN throughput, Wireguard VPN and power consumption (~well, it has been a long time).
ZimaBoard 2 is powered by the Intel N150 (quad-core, upto 3.6GHz), comes with either 8 or 16GB RAM, dual 2.5GbE, and PCIe expansion, making it a great choice for networking applications.
As the device only boot UEFI, we need OpenWrt efi firmware. I installed OpenWrt on a USB drive and avoid touching the internal eMMC as I may need to go back to stock firmware (ZimaOS).
