Hi all,

I’m slowly moving into the self hosted mindset specially for privacy, security and sailing the high seas. This community has been invaluable but I’d like to know which routers you use that fit well with this and plays nice with the services we’re hosting.

I’m mostly thinking about wifi support, openwrt, vpn (not a hard requirement), vlans, etc. I know probably a networking community would be a better place for this question, but I think this might be useful for other “self-hosters”

    I want to do the same thing but I’ve read that it’s not a good idea to put opnsense and home assistant on the same machine “you don’t want your router restarting when home assistant restarts.” Is this not an issue of they are run in proxmox vms?

      Hasn’t been an issue for me. HA would only be depending on Opnsense for a DHCP lease so assuming you have reasonable lease times it’ll just pick up where it left off.

      Without checking I would imagine you could just set a delay for the HA container to make sure opnsense can start first, if it does become an issue.
