Can this work with the "off the shelf" mesh routers.
This seems like it's geared toward higher power hardware that's not generally available on a consumer-grade router.
You could buy a $300 consumer router and it would be worse than just using an old PC with OPNsense.
Except that the old PC is probably less efficient at a lower clock than an AR based consumer router. You'll get more performance and features, but it will be more expensive to run.
I guess if you live in a place where electricity is super expensive this will matter. A good majority of self-hosted people don't seem to care much as they have server racks full of old hardware.
The Fujitsu Futro S720 consumes about 6 Watts and it's great for OPNsense!
No, off the shelf routers are usually ARM and opnsense is x86 only.
...or MIPS...
