It happens that local provided offers 10Gbit fibre (XGS-PON) via PPPOE (yes, it’s quite crazy) for a reasonable price.

I am curious what type of hardware will be enough for 10Gbit PPPOE?
Especially I am looking for something with as low as possible idle power consumption.

On a software side I am thinking about vyOS.

There are some firewall boxes with Intel U300E and 2xSFP+ cages, but not sure how good they are.

    I use OPNsense on a Xeon E3-1240 v3 and it works super great. I get my full 3Gbps up and down across the WAN. Could probably handle more but my connection is only 3Gbps lol
