    Using OPNsense after router

    I'm using Asus Merlin now and want to add OPNsense after the router. Meaning OPNsense's IP would be something like 192.168.1.100 on the WAN side from the router rather than have OPNsense after the modem like it would normally go. I'm wondering if anyone would know how I would accomplish such a...

    RT-AC86U as VLAN Access Point?

    Unsure best direction for better logging and securing IoT devices

    I'm into IoT and home automation, but I'm embarrassed to admit I've rather ignored the security aspects of my home network so far. I'd be really grateful for some guidance on the best direction to address this, especially if anyone thinks I might be wasting my time looking into building a NG...

    Recommendations for OPNsense box?

    So I need a firewall for my home lab and settled on OPNsense. I got a Dell recoverpoint box from work. 4 NICS, 12GB of RAM, 2x Six Core E5-2620, 2x 300GB HDD. I had planned on using this as the OPNsense box...but...I feel like it's overkill. I also feel like it's going jack my electric bill...

    Accesspoints with multiple ssids and vlans (and maybe mesh)

    I've moved to a new apartment. Unfortunately I have to change some bits of my network setup and I want to improve the network (in regards of isolation / vlans and VPN) at the same time. For that I'm still looking for a wifi solution that fits my needs. I read a lot in forums and blogs about...

    unbranded QOTOM-Q190G4 S02 -some opinions

    Just got this as a replacement for my broken AC68U. Of course most people probably buy the consumer AC Asus routers is for the wireless AC and RMerlins features. I think the Asus (pre FCC rules!) routers are a very good deal for the money. I spent about 200 USD on this (32GB SSD, 2GB ram) and...
