• Is it possible to set up a virtual Router?

  Are you wanting a router, or a firewall/gateway? For some reason, these are confused all the time. While lots of firewall/gateways will route, you may have to turn a lot of things off to make them clean. (Like NAT) The only FOSS pure router project I know that is still standing is the BSD Router Project. https://bsdrp.net/. Source: about 2 years ago

• Combining router and application host

  1) BSDRP, pfsense or OPNSense at the base, and putting TrueNAS with NextCloud on top via virtualization. Source: about 2 years ago

• Is there a BSD router that's faster than a Linux based one?

  The BSD Router Project might of some interest to you. Source: about 2 years ago

• you can't a escape from linux if you have a wifi router at home (because linux(busybox/linux) is dominated in wifi router world.)

  Pls look at what I find https://bsdrp.net/. Source: over 2 years ago

• In-kernel WireGuard is on its way to FreeBSD and the pfSense router

  In the vein of what you've used, I stumbled across https://bsdrp.net/ ; which I'm not sure does WG, but reminded me of your OpenBSD effort. I'd be curious to see a write-up of what you've done, since I'm always looking for solutions in this space. Source: about 3 years ago

• Can Surveillance Station record offsite cameras ?

  The above setup is critical to a reliable system. I'd use enterprise quality routers for a store and home connection. I personally use https://pfsense.org but there are many to choose from and several open source. Source: over 1 year ago

• Exposing Synology to web: best/practical practices?

  What I would do is put that thing in DMZ and install a good router behind it like https://www.pfsense.org. No affiliation, just been my router for many years. There's also it's sibling https://opnsense.org. There are many, just get a enterprise quality router. Source: over 1 year ago
