pfSense is a re-packaged FreeBSD. you'll find pfSense doesn't support as wide a variety of platforms (anything MIPS) or wireless cards.

that's quite disingenuous. it uses pf, openSSH, and LibreSSL (in development version) from OpenBSD on top of a FreeBSD core, and it's wireless card support is not very much below linux (though you might need to work to get it up).

if you have older x86 hardware, it's hard to top pfsense.
