I've always been interested in this, but I was worried about the efficiency/performance loss. I don't really know how off the shelf routers work, but I'd assume most of the routing logic happens near the hardware... is this not the case? Or is linux able to move routing logic into the hardware so there's no significant performance difference? My own reasons are 1. It's an extra piece of hardware, when I already have an underutilized server 2. The consumer router web ui is terrible, updates are painful, diagnostics are lacking, etc 3. More power with linux, and a consistent interface for it |
