Selfhosted
A place to share alternatives to popular online services that can be self-hosted without giving up privacy or locking you into a service you don't control.

The problem is Opnsense, as the BSD kernel used is doing single thread network routing. So the APU can saturate 1gbit with multiple connections/threads or if you switch to a firewall with a Linux kernel like OpenWRT.
That said, a N100 probably does have enough single thread performance to do 1.2 Gbit. Not sure about the full 2.5gbit though.
Thank you for the answers. I enjoy opnsense, it's easier to use then openwrt for me personally.
I was thinking to do some testing of the new device before I replace the old one. But I wanted to hear if anyone has experiences.
I looked at CPU benchmark net, and saw that N100 is about 8 times faster then the AMD SOC. I'm not sure if this is linear with performance increase. Currently max download is about 600-700 while upload is 300-400.
How are you measuring your speeds? I think cloudflare speed tests were more accurate for me then ookla, but in the end downloading a large file over usenet gives me the best picture
Edit- and that made me realise my ssd was a bottleneck, replacing that helped me go from 500-600 to about 900-950 on my gigabit connection
Which is why tests like these should be done in ram.
I tested with seedtest-cli, libre speed test and downloading a big file (with a combination of different devices). The CPU immediately goes to 100%
When I use the ISP box directly I get full speed.
