Hi I'm Peter and new here.
I'm planning to buy a hardware appliance such as any protectli. But would like to install opnsense myself.
How to proceed with only a spare laptop without com port?
Hi Peter, welcome aboard!
I use one of these for devices with tricky or no standard peripheral connectors: https://thepihut.com/products/usb-to-serial-adapter
Minicom on Linux or putty on Windows will handle the interfacing.

Thank you Bart!
