What do you run; Opnsense, pfsense, Smoothwall, maybe a WAF like wazuh?

Today was update/audit firewall day. I’m running a standalone instance of pFsense on a Protectli Vault FW4B - 4 Port - Intel Quad Core - 8GB RAM - 120GB mSATA SSD with unbound, pfBlockerNG, Suricata, ntopng, and heavily filtered. I did bump the swap to 8 GB as I’ve previously noticed a few ‘out of swap’ errors under load.

Before I signed off, I ran it through a couple porn sites to see if my adblocking strategy was working. Not one intrusive ad. Sweet!

Show me what you got.

    I was going to hack my Linksys, but they locked some things for my model in the US apparently, and needed a flash with firmware I couldn’t find.

    I just got OpenWRT One. Its a dev router, but hope fully can handle a firewall, VPN server, and maybe a reverse proxy. It’s based off banana pi.

    I just want my Linux notes in one place (nextcloud) and synced (syncthing), and Jellyfin. Got a Raspberry Pi 5 with a NVMe hat and 16 GB of RAM for that. Then add more later.
