Follow-up: OpenBSD routers on AliExpress mini PCs

I got lots of replies to the last post showing the little OpenBSD internet gateway setup (super interesting; thanks!). Here's more info and pictures:

Something I've been meaning to share for years now.

Is this a qotom? When I bought mine the description on Amazon said it could be turned on via power restore from bios but I have 0 power settings in bios. No wake on lan, nothing.

I've searched for how to update the bios (or if this would even help) but it's hard to find clear information.

It might be a jumper on the board. Mine (Q770G4) boots on power, if I can organise some downtime with the family I'll take a look at it (set it up ages ago so can't remember).

Edit: CAB approval was easier than I expected! Mine is in the BIOS, under Chipset > PCH-IO Configuration, set State After G3 to Power On.

Yeah I also tried moving the jumper for the power pins on the mobo but all that accomplished was a long press, which caused it to turn on and then off again.

I'll scroll through the bios again but I'm pretty sure I looked at every menu and submenu. 🤷‍♂️

Is it an APTIO BIOS? My setting was hidden in IT813 Super IO Configuration —> Advanced —> Restore AC Power Loss. Took me ages to find it.

I guess I'll have to take another look whenever I can get the family to agree to turn off the internet for a bit.
