Longtime Asus and Merlin user. We're closing in on purchasing a home and I'm planning to overhaul our network when we do so. It will certainly be a pricey adventure (still figuring out requirements and hardware, but leaning towards a standalone device for pfSense, 3xPoE APs, along with switches and supporting hardware). Although some of the changes are welcome, I'm dreading the transition to pfsense. I'll be trying to replicate functionality provided within Merlin including Skynet, Diversion, Adaptive QoS, VPN clients and server, along with VLAN implementation.
Has anyone made a similar switch? How was the experience? Was there any functionality that you weren't able to replicate? Or perhaps was especially difficult to implement?
The Merlin + scripts packages really do so much at such an inexpensive price point. I need to figure out a way to keep my existing setup as a backup in case this project gets too messy.
