So to summarize:

these are the SBC supported by FreeBSD: https://wiki.freebsd.org/arm64#Single_Boards <https://wiki.freebsd.org/arm64#Single_Boards>

I agree part with Ian, RBPI is a mixed bag. Many things are not working (Wifi, BLE) but for our product RBPI 3B/3B+ has been working without a problem outdoor and indoors.

Is there any hope to see Wifi / BLE working on this board RBPI 3B/4B ?

Are there any other SBC supported by FreeBSD 13/CURRENT ?

Are there any other ARM64 industrial boards (1/2/4GB RAM, RTC, -40C - 80C) supported by FreeBSD ?

Is NetBSD a better choice than FreeBSD for ARM64 SBC ? 

Thanks,
Stefan
