So I’m trying to build a router. Just need something to handle the networking in my house and the plan is to separate things out via virtual local area networks. Anyway, reading a bunch of threads and comments, I think my design will be something akin to this. Is this good or bad? Ultimately I wanna run OPNSense since that’s what most people recommend, but wanna about x86.

      What were you expecting? It’s a thing designed to be under 100$, there are no miracles there. Get one of the BPI routers if you want performance. From time to time there are nice deals on aliexpress for those.
