Just looked up that board.

I wish it had something like an ESP8266 and could do the TCP/IP offloaded 
versus requiring the Amiga TCP/IP stacks. Then you could have a program on 
the Amiga side that is much lighter in weight that could maybe mount a 
TNFS server or Windows CIFS server. Something like the FujiNet adapter 
that exists for the Atari 8bit computers. At least for me, just having 
remote filesystem over network would be a huge jump in capabilities.
