    Opnsense or pfsense are good options. Most people would suggest the former.

    If you use your existing router as an AP you need to ensure it has a different IP address then your firewall and turn off DHCP.

    If buying APs most would suggest unifi access points for their features and ease of use.

    The *sense options let your use wire guard, openvpn, or others like tailscale, tinc.

    For hardware any dual nic (in the speed you want) any n95, n100, n150 mini PC should more than meet your needs.





  • My kitchen has 4 different lights in it, and often a random one will be on.

    One light is on a 3 way switch with a switch at either entrance, if I hit that switch (then realize I turned on an extra light, instead of turning off one of the other lights) and turn it back off within 2.5 seconds then it will turn off and other of the the lights in the kitchen that happen to be on.

    Every time I accidentally trigger this automation it makes me smile because it’s silly
