dell optiplex
How many NICs can you cram in these? I added a second one to my Lenovo Tinys but some more are nice for a FW…
Comment on Can you please tell me all about your DIY router?

OPNsense on used dell optiplex. Very easy but it can do whatever you want to grow into as you learn more.

Just depends on the form factor, but I usually go with SFF. I went 10G last year and it’s been so great. Used low profile, dual port SFP+ module. One port has SFP+ to RJ45 to my modem. Other port is SFP+ passive DAC to a used Brocade ICX 2750.

This is what I did before I went to all unifi gear.

I was Unifi gear and then went back to Opnsense :P. That shit is way too expensive to replace.

The extended warranty is pretty damn good, but that’s expensive too lol
Is the power consumption too bad, if you know?
