I finally decided to buy a mini PC to make it as a pfsense router and I was wondering witch option is more suitable for my needs

First I was thinking of doing with proxmox so I could install pi-hole and wireguard in it but looking more into pfsense I see that there is PfblockerNG and also a Wireguard package that could be installed inside.

What does everybody in here use? I’m curious to know if thinkering in proxmox to run pfsense is more efficient than just installing bare-metal.

Thank you

Conclusion: will go with sole pfsense since I never used it in the first place, once accustomed will switch to proxmox, thank you everyone I hope there will be more posts like this in this platform

    Wifi Mesh is where you basically have multiple access points having the same ssid, right?

      Yes. And the devices also should be able to pass you between nodes for optimal reception.

      This can be done by openwrt too, with the right hardware.
