edgerouter 4 vs pfsense

Posted on October 8th, 2020

I personally don't use AT&Ts IPv6, and instead I tunnel my own /56 in, so the limitation rules out using a GRE/IPSec/etc. Can anyone recommend a good pre-built pfsense box? At the end of the day, I like to tinker with things but 99% of the time I just need a reliable internet connection that fades into the background. I can see how this would be a concern for some though. 1. Thanks for your input, I really appreciate it! you can clear the old backed up firmware to clear space to update to a newer version and they are working on making the firmware process easier to do.

Thanks in advance! Part of my cabling project I'm going to move my ESXI, and my Plex server to the basement. The biggest issue a user will notice is the very limited onboard storage space meaning firmware upgrades are a bitch. (for Christmas I got a Ubiquiti Unifi LC LR to replace it, just waiting to find someone to hire to do some cabling through the walls for me). I've had some time to ponder and I happened to find this http://pcengines.ch/apu2.htm. They were able to get me around 900-950 when they installed it and since it took the guy 8 hours to splice the fiber he called it good enough and left it at that.

The EdgeRouter is a faster router and no homebrew pfSense device will touch it on throughput due to hardware acceleration. The setup works great, the only disadvantage is that it uses more electricity and generates more heat than I would like. 2. What does pfSense do better over the ER built in firewall and tools, or when does one setup make more sense than other? pfsense routers are way overkill for home endeavors, I've been on ASUS routers for maybe 10-15y+, can't complain. AT&T sent out a bad firmware and if you try to utilize another piece of equipment, you get less that 50MB/s down.

I had no issues with FiOS on pfSense as it will do 800 Mbps on something like a C2758 Atom board but it may be a bottleneck for you if you're using it for routing between multiple internal networks. If the edgerouter works for you, then keep it, pfsense/netgate devices are kind of pricey for some, the nice thing is I can install on pfsense on whatever hardware I want (though I suggest you stay away from realtek network cards). 1. swiizyyhd Overall the signal reliability in my apartment has increased substantially and the extra tool set I get with a "business class" AP is great.
