So I’m trying to build a router. Just need something to handle the networking in my house and the plan is to separate things out via virtual local area networks. Anyway, reading a bunch of threads and comments, I think my design will be something akin to this. Is this good or bad? Ultimately I wanna run OPNSense since that’s what most people recommend, but wanna about x86.

AX3000 as an AP: https://a.aliexpress.com/_EzPBBVX

If you have a hypervisor in a home lab, which it turns out OP does not, odds are good your already running a DNS filter/ server, DHCP server, AD domain, etc so the whole network is down anyway during hypervisor restarts if you don’t have HA setup.
