I've got a lot of spare hardware laying around including a pair of intel 1GBE NICs, 4GB (overkill I know but it's not in use), Netgear GS108 gigabit switch and an z68 mATX board. I picked up an old pentium off ebay.
Here's what the home network consists of:
wired connections:
Main PC
FreeNAS/Plex server
Smart TV (1080) in the living room
Home Audio Receiver (internet options hardly ever get touched)
XBone
wireless connections:
Roku
Laptop
Tablet
2 iPhone 6s
Typical max load is with two people watching two separate streams
I've never dabbled with pfSense before but it seems as straightforward as setting up m FreeNAS box. Any pitfalls to look out for? What's the best wifi card to use? I don't absolutely require an AC card
