I need to replace my PC Engine's APU1 functioning as firewall. It can't keep up with my 500/500 Mb/s Internet connection.
Any recommendations as similar kind of device with similar price point (<300€) for running #OpenBSD ?
I could also consider something bit more expensive if it has SFP/SFP+ port.

oherrala@mastodon.social@torarg What kinds of speeds are you getting through Protectli and which device do you have?

letoams@defcon.social@oherrala turris from nic.cz is what I use (but my omnia is a bit older)

oherrala@mastodon.social@letoams Thanks! Really interesting. I've seen Turris Omnia before. A really good option.

@oherrala When I upgraded to Gig fiber I also ran into limitations and after buying several devices I went with an #OPNsense router.

oherrala@mastodon.social@mj OPNSense seems to be quite pricey compared to other alternatives.
But you seem happy with it?

oherrala@mastodon.social@systeemkabouter OPNSense boxes are quite far out of my budget.
But interesting boxes!

@oherrala 100% I used it on sub par hardware for a long time before upgrading to their hardware. If you want the experience up front download it and throw it in a proxmox and configure it as you would

oherrala@mastodon.social@mj I maintain one OPNSense firewall, but I really feel like just running OpenBSD instead.
OPNSense is fine system and has been running well for that specific need. But since it's different from anything else then it's just constant Googling to do anything.
