    Router recommendation need.

    I do have UPnP enabled for my son's PS5 and XBox. I also run multiple SIP / VoIP servers and devices on the LAN connecting to remote sites, double NAT may upset that.

    Router recommendation need.

    Using the ISP router I'm getting 940/110. When I use my opnsense server I get 600/110 approx. When I run a speedtest top shows the following. So it looks like PPPOE is using one core. Would an N100 be able to cope with this ? Thanks

    Router recommendation need.

    Must admit I hadn't thought of this. The ISP router has a DMZ, would I connect my opnsense box to that, and then set all the clients default gateway as the opnsense box ? Any issues with double NAT etc ? Any idea how the WAN would need to be configured in opnsense ? Thanks

    Router recommendation need.

    My concern is Opnsense / BSD uses a single core for PPPOE, I'm sure if this CPU will have enough power to cope.

    FTTC Router - ISP router or opnsense ?

    Thanks for the replies. I've been running opnsense and before that pfsense for quite a few years, so I'm happy with how they work. I am looking to simplify things, so using the ISP router may be the better bet. Thanks

    FTTC Router - ISP router or opnsense ?

    Hello. I'm currently on a UK 80/20 FTTC using a small microPC running opnsense. This is working well, but I can now get FTTP upto 1600 Mbps so I'm looking at my options. I'm planning on a 900 Mbps connection and am wondering if I should use the ISP router which is a TP Link EX820V, or upgrade...
