Hi Normis

Is there a forum section for making suggestions on hardware changes to RB gear? I would like to use the “MiniPCI adapter RouterBOARD 18 - Eight MiniPCI Standard Slots” with high power wireless cards. I realise this can not be currently done as the 3.3V and 5V does not supply enough power to the high power cards for them to work properly.

Now I was wondering if you could in future add a couple of molex connections to the PCI board to take added power from the PSU of a computer to help run the more needy miniPCI wireless cards. Like they do with some modern graphics cards

I have looked at getting a custom board made that would do that but I would need to order 100 before they begin production. I only need 6 so this isn’t cost effective. I was hoping you guys would have a solution.
