Finally ditched my ISP’s router and installed my own opnsense firewall with my own Access Point. I have crowdsec running on opnsense to block attacks + adguard to block ads and malicious domains. My network is segmented between my homelab that is exposed and my AP.

Finally feels quite safe in my network 😅

I can't imagine why you need 32gb for opnsense. I can run it on a single core and 1gb, unless I literally want every DNS blacklist loaded in which case 4gb

    I’m running a proxmox instance on mine, with opnsense in a vm and plex, Jellyfin pihole and my omada controller on lxc. 16gb is just enough for everything, but I like to future proof and buffer things, so it makes me a bit nervous utilizing 12 of that 16 gb and only leaving 4gb for proxmox.
