Hi everone, basically what the title says. I am just starting my homelab and I am somewhat conflicted on whether I should run Opensense in Proxmox or should I buy a n100 device dedicated for it. What are some of the pros and cons of doind either or. So far in my research I have only come across articles/forum posts explaining how to run Opensense in Proxmox.

    I have been thinking about this as well, but then I see so many people running Opensense in Proxmox and think maybe it’s not that big of an issue.

      I run opnsense in proxmox, and have done for what must be coming up to 5 years.

      Yes I have fucked up proxmox occasionally, but I use my ‘router’ as my wifi AP. If I have fucked up I can bring internet back up with a single cable swap and a quick config change on the router
