Hey everyone,

I’m debating between these two. A Firewalla gold and a protectli fw6e with opnsense or pfsense.

I travel to sketchy places often and do cyber security work. I want to bring these with me to have protection between me and hotels/ wherever I’m at working. Which would be better for good security with also the ease of traveling/ setup (software wise)

Honestly I wouldn't use either. Stick with a device running OpenWRT. You can pickup a battery powered travel router which will work much better and have a much smaller size and better battery life due to the CPU arch.
