Any guides to DIY routers?

[jzchen]

Are/Is there any guides to making your own home made router? I tried to (over the phone) talk my son through updating a very expensive Ubuntu Lambda desktop his first day/week at his new job, and it bricked, requiring creating a recovery USB and restoring the darn thing...

TIA

Type in Google "Build own router, firewall with FreeBSD, pfSense, OPNSense, OpenWrt, Arista, Sophos, etc." even "FreshTomato x86" if you like and hit Enter. Multiple results will come up including forums, articles, tutorials, videos. Your question doesn't belong to this thread.
