I love pfSense and the APU2 combo. I’ve performed a pfSense version upgrade and multiple APU2 BIOS upgrades without issue.

I only have a 25/2 connection, but would like to run a OpenVPN-Client to secure outbound connections from some of my hosts. OpenVPN Performance on The Vault - Protectli Aug 20, 2018
