<![CDATA[First pfsense build - 400/40 Mbps cable connection]]>Hello,
I am thinking to build my first pfsense box but I am a bit struggling on which hardware to choose.
I have a 400/40 Mbps cable connection which currently supports around 15 devices.
The box should handle NAT, firewall rules, openvpn at 100 Mbps.
I am looking for a small (fanless the best) box that could handle this traffic.
I found several box on aliexpress with processors which are supporting AES-NI but I don't know if they will be able to handle my requirements.
Could anymone recommend me a specific box?
Thank you.

I have similar requirements – although my internet speed is < 100mbps. Look for bingo's and s_mason16's reply regarding the processor choices that I made.
