I suppose it would be possible to run binkd on a router, but I see no added value over installing it on the machine that runs the tosser and the other fidonet software. Plus that it does not remove the hurdle that I face: the need to switch from AMA to BSO...
Now if ALL the software that is needed to run a fidonet node could run on he router, and it could also hold the message base, it is dfferent. Having a fully stand alone, low power system for Fidonet sounds attractive.

MR> Exactly!
Info that can not be gleened from the IPv4 packets alone, so it must have its own node manager that needs to be configured separately from the main system's configuration. Not practical.

I just picked up a never used Fritz!Box 7340 at the second life shop for EUR 4.50. Looked too good an offer to let pass... So who knows what the future will bring...
