Douglas VB on Nostr: I'm thinking about switching from a #Ubiquiti #EdgeRouter to something with #OPNsense ...
I'm thinking about switching from a #Ubiquiti #EdgeRouter to something with #OPNsense on it. My home Internet can do 1gbps/45mbps although this fall I'll probably end up with symmetric 1.2gbps. I'm upgrading my access points to WiFi 7 (the new Ubiquiti APs) so the WiFi will support the throughput even if our devices don't yet.
The frustrating thing with the EdgeRouter is that it's basically been abandoned the last few years by its manufacturer. They are still selling plenty of them but... 1/n
