The Raspberry Pi 3 Model B+ featuring a 64-bit quad core processor running at 1.4 Ghz. R-Pi3 B+ supports the dual band 2.4GHz and 5GHz IEEE 802.11.b/g/n/ac wireless LAN which provides an high edge for the broadband developer community to test the RDK-B stack with Router, WiFi functionalities. RPI uses Ethernet Port for internet connectivity which is used for RDKB porting in RPI of Router Profile. In general, two more WAN Profiles supported by RDKB are EPON and Docsis which uses Fibre and RF as input physical medium.
