Question: Sophos XG or pfSense/OPNsense for router

[burner1970]

Hey fellow networking people! I have a question. I currently use a Meraki MX64 as my router at home (got it free with taking a webinar), but it’s coming up for renewal and I am not sure if I should do it or not. The service I have now is 200/10 from Spectrum and I am not planning on going higher unless they really have some super deal. I have the following hardware available at my disposal for a router and was wondering if anyone had any experience or recommendations for software. I was considering Sophos XG or pfSense/OPNsense.

Dell Optiplex 3010 with the following specs

I5-3570 cpu
8GB ram
120GB SSD
Quad port GbE PCIe card

Probably a little overkill for a router, but it’s what I have.

Thanks for your input!
