After a hardware upgrade I ended up with a spare mini pc. Noticed these two icons and thought I might be able to use it as a WiFi access point with VLANs using OPNsense.
Is that possible? If so, what do I even need to buy to plug into there?
I don't need it to do any fancy dhcp, dns or firewall stuff, I just need a WiFi access point with support for VLANs.
OpenWRT isn't quite as reliable as opnsense because it doesn't have dual partitions. In the future that might change but for now OpenWRT focuses on max compatibly.
In practice what this means is that you must be careful not force off OpenWRT when flashing firmware.
