PC Engines APU2
This tiny monster runs my brother's LAN. With a home network built for Gigabit Ethernet and 802.11AC wireless, together with a high-speed internet connection, we needed a platform that would do one thing well: routing. With wireless being provided by APs all over the house, the regular router/AP combinations - even the higher end ones - were not really useful. So future-proofing things a bit we decided on the APU2. A separate VLAN is provided for the set-top box his ISP provides, and another one planned for a guest wireless network. LEDE runs well on this hardware, and even more complete support (LEDs etc.) is on its way.

/proc/cpuinfo output
LEDE's x86/64 subtarget has SMP enabled by default so info for all four cores is printed, just showing one of these.
