A quick note--I bought a PELADN unit early this year and there is literally no support. The links for drivers and BIOS on their site are all dead; they go to a file hosting service that cannot find the files in question. I emailed them several times about it and never received a response.
The unit itself is working fine, but do not expect anything from the manufacturer. If you get a dud, you better hope you're in the Amazon return period, or have a credit card that will offer you an extended warranty/return protection.

I've seen Beelinks with the same CPU and RAM go for this price (but with half the storage). I personally would wait for a more reputable brand to hit this price. Not that I think this brand is bad, just that more popular ones have hit this price pretty frequently.

I have the WI-6. All the links time out. They've timed out since January, when I bought the machine.
This does not bode well for future support for any of the existing models. And, as I said, they did not respond to any e-mails I sent.
I paid very little for the machine I have, and it works for now. But I was deeply unimpressed with the service, and I won't buy one of their models again as a result.

Both links worked for me. You just have to wait longer than normal. Try a different browser, or adjust your adblockers. 😉

It's possible you've been blocked by the Great Firewall of China for some reason. It'll show up as a time-out. Happened to a friend of mine.

For future reference you should be able to get all your drivers from the hardware manufacturer website as well. If you don't know what something is go to device manager in windows, go to the properties for the unknown hardware, then look up the hardware ID on the 3rd or 4th tab in the drop down on Google and one of the results will tell you what it is.
Now, go change all you bad comments about the brand. 🤣🤣🤣
Brother, if I could get the drivers, I would! I still can't access them, no matter what I try. It just times out.

This could explain it. I don't pay for a static IP, so it's possible Verizon has cycled me onto an IP that pissed off China somehow.

Oh, I've been able to figure it out, but firmware and BIOS updates are essentially impossible to get that way, and the chip in mine (N97) is old enough that I know some BIOS/UEFI/microcode improvements have since been released.
