It may be overkill for most home users, but sometime, when you have something little more complicated in mind, it help a lot. I wont go back to 200mhz ARM box anytime soon. It's also nice to have a router with RS232, LPT1 and USB ports. I use the LPT1 and GPIO port for LEDs and USB to hook an olf black and white, retroilluminated Palm Pilot as display. Things that are sometime harder to do with sealed, dedicated routers, Sat, 29 Oct 2011 01:45:00 GMT donotreply@osnews.com (Elv13) Comments http://www.osnews.com/thread?494897 http://www.osnews.com/thread?494897 oh im not arguing that its not a good product, just wow that it got posted here a month late.

i have been running it since 1.x and have helped to beta test some of the key updates in the system including VM setup, DNS server and even IPv6 support (which is now in base code in 2.1)

the thing i love the most about it is it has all the features most people are looking for in a firewall, and if it doesnt, can be done pretty easily.

I´ve tested any freely available appliance like Ipcop, Smoothwall, Endian, Untangle etc. since then. None of those have a similar featureset, responsiveness and usability with the FreeBSD peace of mind. Sun, 30 Oct 2011 14:09:00 GMT donotreply@osnews.com (Worldbuilder) Comments
