Public Service Announcement:
Have you checked out Sophos XG Firewall for home use lately?
It’s basically an enterprise firewall fully licensed for personal use.
- All the firewall stuff
- Normal IPS
- Built-In easy transparent SSL/TLS proxy
- Web Application Firewall
I like it better than PF/Open Sense right now.

They place arbitrary limits on home users as well, which is a secondary reason to not use it compared to open source offerings. For instance:
- you are limited to 1Gbps line speed
- you are limited to one week of analytics, with no export option, so you can’t even ship them elsewhere
- there are also resource limits that prevent ram and CPU utilization
Nope. I’ll stick with OPNsense which is open source.
Thank you for letting me know what software not to use; good bot
