I’m on the search for a cost effective SOHO router with solid Wireguard support. The main purpose is to allow my parents to access my local media share and also share my streaming accounts. I’ve rolled with pFSense/OPNSense the last several years and I’m think that may be too complicated to also setup at their home. I want something they can effectively unplug/plugin when they need to reset it or, at the worst, go to a simple web interface to make a change that I can guide over the phone.

I’m currently looking at the Asus AX86/88U devices, but I’m open to whatever would work the best.

    Glad you brought this up. I actually found a low spec’d (pentium g5400, I think) m720q that might do the trick.

      Honestly that’s pretty good too. While I actually prefer Lenovo to Dell, I found that using a 7050 SFF was actually less expensive than the Lenovo one for what I needed it to do.
