      Hi All,

      Im just a beginner on pfsense and my company im working at is planning on using a VPN using pfsense (for work-from-home cases), i just want to know if what pfsense appliance is recommended for the following specs of our office:

      Internet speed: 300mbps
      Estimated users: 100

      Also we are using a lenovo desktop for our current pfsense and our WAN is setup on PPPOE.

      Thank you

        Is that 100 users, all at the very same time, or spread out a little bit?

          Also, how much traffic is going off the local network? There's a big difference between mainly using local servers and going to the Internet for everything.

          PfSense running on Qotom mini PC
          i5 CPU, 4 GB memory, 32 GB SSD & 4 Intel Gb Ethernet ports.
          UniFi AC-Lite access point

          I haven't lost my mind. It's around here...somewhere...
