I've used one for several years. Worked great. Never had a problem running the embedded version of pfSense on it. Did everything I needed including a IPSEC VPN tunnel to work. I outgrew it when I wanted to start caching things, have the ability to easily track bandwidth across reboots, and track what the teenagers in the house are doing. (I don't generally track them, but I make sure they know I can. I glance through logs occasionally to see that all is well.) I ended up replacing it w/ a Foxconn system from Newegg. (Foxconn SFF R10-A1 AMD E-350 APU) It only had one NIC, but I fixed that w/ a Mikrotik RB250GS. It's overkill but now I have 4 Gigabit NICS, a SSD for storage, and way more memory/cpu than I can use on my home network.

Anyone here used the Netgate m1n1wall 2D3 / 2D13 Blue? Does this unit run the full version of PFSense, and is 256 MB for a home office deployment enough? Do I need third nic, and separate my WLAN and lan, and then just have vlans for each network and a secure tunnel bettween lan and wlan? -- Justin IT-TECH -- Justin IT-TECH
