<![CDATA[Do you think that an N5105 router PC with 8Gb ram 256Gb NVME and 4 x i225 2.5G ports could handle a 1Gb PPPoE connection without issue plus handle a firewall running #OpenBSD]]>#OpenBSD ?
Currently I have an N100 running OpnSense but want to pick up a S/H unit to try OpenBSD with the aim of switching if successful.
