Hello, I’m planning on creating a home server and getting some cameras.

I would like to have the server, cameras and all IOT devices be disconnected from the internet but still be able to access them within the house from different devices and maybe have limited access to them when outside.

Do I need a specific hardware for this? And what router would support this? I’m still in the planning phase but I’m looking for budget friendly solutions.

Thank you

    I do the exact same thing, only over PFSense (no issues with OPNSense at all, I just get along with PFSense better). 6 VLANs and 7 APs around the house, no VLAN can see the other, and all my "smart devices work exclusively local, and if I need to reach them from outside, I VPN into my house over WireGuard. It sounds more complicated than it is. Once it’s all set up, it just works.
