    pfSense on Google Compute [anyone have experience???]

    Does anyone have any experience creating a VPN server in Google Compute? And can lend a hand? Note: I'm not referring to the VPN server offer that Google Compute provides, rather rolling my own. It is more cost effective to use an "always free" f1-micro VM instance + pay for network egress...

    Small pfSense compatible box w/ wifi

    As an experiment, I set up a pfSense VM in ESXi 6.5 to connect an isolated virtual network to my server's NIC. It worked very well for that purpose, and I eventually started using it as an OpenVPN endpoint. Now I'd like to ditch my Linksys E4200 for a small, dedicated pfSense box that can act as...

    SR-IOV i350T4 on Hyper-V to pfSense/FreeBSD VM?

    Yes, I know pfSense is meant to run fine on abstracted virtual switches. But I have hardware that will expose SR-IOV to the VM, so I'd prefer to use that, if at all possible. I can provide SR-IOV to a Windows VM fine and can even find details for setting it up for Linux, but am getting nowhere...

    Sophos XG

    I am interested to know why there appears to be little love for sophos xg home version (or even UTM) from everybody. Does it miss something or not do what it should do ? Is the 4 cpu / 6gb a limit ? Does everybody just prefer open source OPNsense of PFsense ? Worried that they will suddenly...

    Need pfSense Hardware Advice for Gigabit Internet

    Hi All, A few months ago, I started a thread asking advice for pfSense hardware to support a 150/150 Mbps home connection. In the end, I decided to go with the APU2C4, and I've been very happy with that decision, until now. I figured that would hold me over for the next few years at least. But...
