The only caveat is it’s limited to 100Mbs full duplex so if you’ll be routing more than ~80Mbs of traffic then you should look at something faster. You’ll learn more about how a router, Linux and basic networking works by setting it up from scratch.Buying it probably won’t make you broke.It’s tiny, smaller than most consumer routers.So why would anyone want to use a Raspberry Pi as a router if it’s only going to be slower and more complicated? You’ll have a router sitting there using 50-100W of power 24/7 with a very simple setup process and a nice web GUI. Grab an old PC, add a 2nd NIC, install pfSense (a Router distribution of FreeBSD) and you’re done. Do you have an interest in tech and enjoy the odd DIY project?
