I have been using pfSense on a 5501 and a 6501 with load balancing over 2 ADSL lines. It works quite good. Web access to pfsense interface is quicker on 6501 device. If you have a lot of connected computer on you lan, you should use a device with high CPU. It increases WAN access speed. I had an issue with the net6501 that deals with faulty SSD drive. Use as much as possible nanoBSD version and redirect syslog events to an internal syslog server. Regards.
