- Open source software to limit/throttle network speed by program or process?

Router for a 1.5Gbps connection
One option is Firewalla Gold Plus, or you could buy a mini PC like it and run pfSense/OPNsense yourself.

Have the IT skills you've learnt applied to life outside of work?
Download and install pfsense as a virtual machine or partition: https://www.pfsense.org Configure it with the rules you want: https://youtu.be/VAGFGppSt74 Play with it, but be careful because it will block all traffic unless you check everything properly.

Looking for Recommendations
Another option is Firewalla, or buy a mini PC like it and run pfSense/OPNsense yourself. Two similar concepts, with the cost being either money or your DIY time. A lot of Firewalla users say that it's much easier for home use than pfSense/OPNsense, so you might find it worthwhile to spend a little more on it upfront and have to tinker less.

VPN for network filtering
If you want firewall, I think you can use https://www.pfsense.org/ or https://opnsense.org/ , maybe running on an old PC or a Raspberry Pi. Not sure.

Looking for Guidance and Advice
I've recently started using OPNsense. It's similar to pfSense, but seems to be considered a little more user-friendly.

Bi-Weekly /r/Technology Tech Support / General Discussion Thread. Have you a tech question or want to discuss tech?
For most router issues, I recommend people always put them in to dumb bridge mode and put a proper firewall like pfsense or opnsense as your gateway.

Another ATT outage 5/15
I have found that my historical average packet loss is about 0.02%. Something distinctly changed around 4/20 of this year, and now the average packet loss has gone up to 0.05% with spikes even higher, associated with periods of elevated ping times. It rarely did that before. Typically the IPv6 stack has more problems than v4 (especially an incident of packet loss on 4/28), and neither has been trouble-free since I started service in early 2020. My data comes from a pfSense installation.

Framework laptop alternative with trackpoint built from NUC by prime computer
I'm reminded of the history of the term "open source" itself.
It came from Eric S Raymond and other folks to counter Free Software/GPL in a more commercially minded way.
I think Richard Stallman said it meant "you can view the source" without necessarily granting any other rights.
I think since then it has been more defined, but there seem to be hidden gotcha's possible. Like maybe https://github.com/rapi3/pfsense-is-closed-source
- Is it possible to set up a virtual Router?
- I just got here and… wow.
- what should i do with this freaking rock?

Been using Pfsense until the wireguard fiasco... Wondering about the "proper' edge devices?

Wanted to view what you guys think of this (related to pfsense)
Not trying to start drama. Genuinely curious about this. Is it true that pfsense cannot be built from source? Any one knowledegable enough care to explain if this is indeed true?

- Is pfsense going closed source?
-
is pfsense secure? That poorly written wireguard patch make me wonder about the rest of the os
It. Is. Not. Open. Source.
What are some alternatives?
