If you get a Raspberry Pi 4 and buy a USB 3.0 network adapters you can actually do pfSense on it. Thanks to the USB 3.0 ports you can connect 1 GbE USB 3.0 network adapters to the RPi and have several wired network cards inside the board for pfSense. However the RPi is absolutely not suitable for VMs.

Do you mean USB 3.0 network adapter like this? Also I meant to use the Pi itself as a VM and if I messed up something, I just re-flash the OS again on the memory card and done I have a fresh system.

no need for static ipv4 ip.

why would you need border router ? I have those links so you could read and get ideas and cobble them together to create your own solution. not so you could follow everything step by step.

pi can work as a router. have you never tried setting up network sharing in Windows xp or 7 using NAT ? here you could have /48 ipv6 allocation from HE and could even assign every system in the local their own routable ipv6 and doing routing through the pi as a gateway without even using NAT. or assign reserved and do nat.

you could do just the same using a vm on your pc too. you don't need pfsense or openwrt or old router hardware running Sisco system.

I'm sorry i can not spend time and work out exact steps so i could make a tutorial with step by step command.

if i can do ipv6 he tunnel on an old Android set and route all local ipv6 traffic through it using iptables then anyone should be able to do. I'm mostly a dumb fool with poor memory and incoherent jumpy thought process and worst at expressing it all. if i can keep at it and figure it out then so can anybody.

Oh! I thought it's the same situation. Good then. No I never tried to setup network sharing. Also I'm currently using HE to have IPv6 on my PC but I wanted to have it on my whole network, I even now got my own /48 range and can do a Wireguard VPN with my own IPv6 so which is easier, routing my network through Wireguard VPN or follow the guides you mentioned before?
