Pfsense

6th February 2025

Pro:
+Cheap
+Tailscale/Wireguard integration

Con:
-When the web interface times out it doesn’t refresh the page, if your PC doesn’t lock anyone that walks up to the PC can see the settings you were last working on.
-DDNS + Internet categories are all 3rd party, If the 3rd party closes shop you get to do a bunch on config changes

NetGate/pfSense firewalls with Ram >4gb will need to use OpenDNS for category filtering
