I use unifi access points for wifi, and have an OpnSense router/firewall running on my server (proxmox).
That works really well, only negative ting is that if I reboot my server the internet is down while doing that. But that doesn't happen very often.
I do almost exactly the same, except I have opnsense running on a cheap dual nic mini PC so I don't have that dependency on my proxmox servers. The unifi stuff does need a controller, but they publish a free app that you can run instead of getting their hardware.
I'm running the app in an lxc on proxmox for unifi, works perfectly:)
I'm undecided about getting dedicated hardware for OpnSense. It would be nice when rebooting, but I don't do that often. But then again, it runs fine on the server as a virtual medicine so no need for an extra machine to use power.
For now it will stay virtual. :)
