I finally decided to buy a mini PC to make it as a pfsense router and I was wondering witch option is more suitable for my needs
First I was thinking of doing with proxmox so I could install pi-hole and wireguard in it but looking more into pfsense I see that there is PfblockerNG and also a Wireguard package that could be installed inside.
What does everybody in here use? I’m curious to know if thinkering in proxmox to run pfsense is more efficient than just installing bare-metal.
Thank you
Conclusion: will go with sole pfsense since I never used it in the first place, once accustomed will switch to proxmox, thank you everyone I hope there will be more posts like this in this platform
Have had the TP Link Deco units installed for a few days now.
They are pretty good. I’m basically able to suck up the entire bandwidth of my 500/500 fiber line directly over the wifi.
On top of that, the mesh support has been good, connecting me to the best node and passing mobile devices between nodes well.
They also have two modes BTW - normal gateway mode and just AP mode - for those who want to park them behind a pfsense router.
The janky things about them are their setup encourages you to setup via their app with an account, which many here will find at best distasteful.
