DO NOT USE MOBILE / CGNAT DEVICES WHERE THE IP CHANGES CONSTANTLY!
At this time, it is unfortunately not possible to whitelist users when your IP changes constantly.
You may inadvertently get banned because a previous attack may have used the IP you are now on.
So I suggest people only use fixed IP address devices until I can think of a solution for this problem!
Thanks for this hint, there are now 23 more in the Atari/Amiga community from some of these!
Do you have any background on these boards, I'm wondering if I'm best to take the remaining to the tip after stripping gals etc, or if they are useful to someone for spare parts or if I put in say an LC?
Well done. 23 is a good haul. I only managed to find around 8 (going back to mid 2000s). Back then embedded 060 boards were very cheap. I've not seen them sold cheap for a while.
I have no background in these boards. I don't think I ever bought one of these. I just google researched all sources of embedded 68060s after reading this thread.
The price online varies wildly, so I imagine no-one knows how much they are worth and are advertising them based solely on the prices they have found via google +10%. I find it hard to believe that people are using these boards in their intended purpose still.
Put one on eBay with world wide shipping with an EC/LC 060 fitted and see if you can get more than the price of an EC/LC 060 for it?
I can vouch for CPU Shack. I have been working with him for years. He knows his stuff and does a great service running the CPU Shack museum. I also recommend joining the CPU shack forums (I'm CoalCreekPlastics over there) the stuff he finds is remarkable.

I managed to pick up a Nortel NT5D03PB board which has a 68060E cpu. It was $80 inc postage, so worth a punt.
It's coming from the middle east I think so will take a few weeks to arrive. At the time I really struggled to find out what the CPU actually is but I've seen a website post about salvaging the CPU from that board and they stated they were 68LC060RC66's, so the MMU is there but no FPU.
There are some Nortel boards that have full RC 68060 cpu's in like the Motorola MVME 17x boards. But those are quite pricey still.
can you or someone else confirm that the CPU on the Nortel NT5D03* is a 68LC060 ???
I ordered a board like this in hope that there is a full MC68060 CPU, but if you can confirm that the 68060E means LC version I will decline the reception of the parcel so it will be shipped back automatically with no return costs.
Thank you for your help!
I have three MC68LC060RC66 CPUs here that I de-soldered from the "Nortel Meridian 1 CP NT5D03FB RLSE 02 128MB/64F"
Thank you!
Now I can confirm it too! I did reception the package.
It is a MC68LC060RC66 CPU in deed! The CPU is soldered. I am joining photos…
So if you want a full 060 CPU, you need to go with the CP3 board from Nortel. The one with the LC is CP4.
The CP4 boards have the Part Number pattern: NT5D03*
The CP3 boards: NT5D10*

btw, i will sent the Nortel CP4 board back to the UK. I am in Germany. If anyone of you is interested in buying it, I can send you the contact of the ebay seller. I have paid 99£ for it + shipping and customs but knowing that it is a LC CPU on it, you might be able to push the price more down. It was a company obviously willing this board being sold. PM me for the contact of the seller, if needed!
