Hi,

I’ve been trying to work out my network architecture with the pieces i have today:

  • isp box with 10gig dac downlink, 4 ssd bays
  • pfsense box with dual 10gig dac card
  • switch with 10gig dac uplink and multi gig rj45
  • main proxmox host
  • other devices (laptops, iot…)

ive ran into a dilemma regarding switching my isp box to bridge mode:

  • if i do, i lose wlan and nas capabilities
  • if i dont, i have to contend with double nat

i’m sure that eventually i will get an ap (maybe unifi) and a dedicated nas (either home built or something like synology or asustore), but for the moment, i want to keep cost down and gradually add new pieces

i was wondering if double nat is of huge performance and maintenance implications, or if i would be okay running this setup for a few months until i get to add an ap and nas?

thank you

    Using unifi with that setup, 4 vlans for 4 ssids, I’m fine with it, but I think there’ll be some hate here for anything unifi nowadays.

        Worked on some of the chips they used, I like the way they rolled, but agree, they’re moving towards the dark side.
