Thank you all so far, looks like Mikrotik is the name of the game - never heard about them :-(
I used to try this https://en.avm.de/products/fritzbox/fritzbox-7590/technical-data/ one with 512MB RAM and it couldn't stand the number of connection you can get on a 40Mbit/s line for more than a day. So i wonder if anything with less or same amount of RAM will be able to - or is this the wrong question?
"..after it's configured properly..." is that a difficult task and are there good manuals or other help for those routers as I am not familiar with networking?

Both "cheap" and "useful" for running Tor nodes at home won't be found in big box retail ever, so I would take a look at the Mikrotik RB750Gr3 * it will do exactly what you want after it's configured properly. I used to have an RB1200 and recently upgraded to a CCR1009, both from Mikrotik, and have found them to be quite capable under heavy load. Make your day great, Isaac Grover, Senior I.T.

They handle quite impressive under
heavy load and the price:performance ratio is very good, as opposite to other brands. MikroTik also runs RouterOS (on linux kernel) that comes with a management tool with graphical interface and it has been heavily improved. _______________________________________________ tor-relays mailing list tor-relays@lists.torproject.org mailto:tor-relays@lists.torproject.org https://lists.torproject.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/tor-relays
