Can hAP-ax3 be used (in hw capability terms) as firewall other than AP for a small office with 10 wifi/wired client and a 100Mbps FTTH connectivity ?

Hi,

yes. I have now internet 300/20 and I have a lot of stuff on the AX3 as: wireguard, zerotier, QOS CAKE, Dude, container. When I did tried to do benchmark I was able to reach max 60% of procesor capacity. I was passing thorough 100Mbps over wireguard. I have basic firewall config which should be anough but I have + bruteforce+ddos
