      Hi all

      I want to build a custom pfsense router that will meet the Australian National Broadband supply/system:

      • On nbn™ Fibre to the Node/Basement using VDSL2, Modems must be compliant with the nbn™ … nbn™ registered FTTN/FTTB Modem/Routers (with VoIP port)

      Can this be done?

      Requirements

      1. Internal Wifi or am I better off just adding UBIQUITI ACCESS POINT
      2. Failover 3G/4G
      3. VDSL2 support
      4. OS PFsense
      5. All build into a minipc fanless device
        6)VOIP port

      Thanks 8)

        @Routerb:

        In short: No.

        All-in-one with internal VDSL2 Modem is not easily possible and Wifi is, as you already pointed out, better served from an external AP.

        @Routerb:

        1. Internal Wifi or am I better off just adding UBIQUITI ACCESS POINT

        external AP.

        @Routerb:

        1. Failover 3G/4G

        checked. Use an external 3G/4G modem, aka stick.

        @Routerb:

        1. VDSL2 support

        nope, not in a single box.
        Unless you find a working VDSL2 modem that fits into an internal PCI-what-have-you slot.

        @Routerb:

        1. OS PFsense

        checked.

        @Routerb:

        1. All build into a minipc fanless device

        dreamer.

        @Routerb:

        1. VOIP port

        define your needs, this is usually just another ethernet port. If you're talking POTS then no.
