eero Pro Gen 2 thoughts
I have the Eero pro pack running but was unable to get it to work with the other network stuff I have (Sophos XG or OPNsense, Cujo etc...) so the only way it works for me is in bridge mode. My only complaint about the units is that I do see the occasional disconnect (mostly on android clients)...- Nnyan

CUJO Smart Internet Security Firewall Reviewed
I also received this from funding the initial project. I had a difficult time getting this to work initially to the point that I just left it off my network for a few months. I do have an unusual network setup. My gateway/router is a pfSense VM on my ESXi server. This seemed to give the...- Nnyan

2 Way firewall router
Do you have the separate networks on different VLANs? L3 switch or a router can then be setup to route specific port traffic one way only- Nnyan

Untangle for home use
There are dozen's of posts on here about Untangle, I think it's a fine UTM (although I have not played around with the new NG version) although the NG Firewall Free is a bit limited. I just visited the website and was unable to find anything about this $50/year plan. The only one I found was a...- Nnyan

New UTM *nix distro, Simplewall
This question really depends on what you are going to do with it. A basic setup with minimal rules/modules running will run fine on low end hardware. Plenty of Atom based hardware out there. When you start throwing in things like AV, Spam/Malware and especially VPN then it will eat into your...- Nnyan

Confessions of a pfSense Newbie ...
The big issue with these is that one NIC. If you don't mind taking a bit of a risk you can find these types of fanless PC's with dual Intel NICs (ex... -

Confessions of a pfSense Newbie ...
Since my post I actually did a bit of playing around with pfsense (and a few others). I got myself a Barracuda Web Filter 300 on ebay for cheap, I was able to install pfsense (after some install issues) and Sophos UTM on this bad boy. For a pfsense noob it took me all weekend to get it... -

Home Mesh Wi-Fi Coming This Summer From eero
You are lucky then. I've deployed a number of multiple (consumer) wifi networks with 2+ AP's and no matter how I did it (original firmware, DD-WRT, Tomato, etc...) I have always run into issues with clients being too "sticky" and not moving to another (stronger AP). Android devices are the...- Nnyan

More reliable and refined edgerouter lite alternative for soho?
I typically do my tests with just the bare install (minimal config) run it three times on two different days. My connection is 100meg Comcast, one HP 1800-24G switch (to latest firmware which was in 2013 I believe) I only run about a dozen ACL's so it's pretty light. I haven't played with... -

I've been considering giving pfSense a whirl. Anyone have any performance figures (NAT/OpenVPN)? -

More reliable and refined edgerouter lite alternative for soho?
I had the opposite experience with the ER6120. Just to make sure my tests were accurate I dusted it off again and tested it against the ER6120 and I found the RV180 was significantly faster than the ER6120. I also has a chance to test out the ERLite-3 (borrowed from a friend) and while overall...
