Hiya, looking the a firewall for my homelab, mostly to experiment but also for a added layer of security. There are just two of us in this household with a few laptops, phones and my servers, so nothing much. Therefore looking for something affordable and not “overkill”.
Anyone got any recommendations for this? Also how do you run your opensense/pfsense instance?
Appreciate any tips!
Those are exactly same products that are sold on Amazon.
You can buy exactly these same opnsense devices from Amazon.
Also I’m not sure what it was 10 years ago. But these days mini PCs is how most people homelab. 10w idle and enough firepower typically for most tasks.
Obviously pick modern and some name for hardware, they are great.
