While I agree that it is attractive to use a Raspberry
Pi because of its availability
and the capability to also host some applications on the same device aside from
doing the routing, in my experience it is much easier to use a dedicated router
like the MikroTik hEX (RB750Gr3) available for about the same price, but having
5 ethernet ports and all software required for VPN and routing pre-installed and
much easier to configure and maintain than a Raspberry Pi.
Of course there always are multiple options. And Raspberry Pi should be one of them.
The network setup must be as standard as possible, so that it can be
implemented on a large amount of equipment :
- People building networks, remote sites, repeaters, or advanced users
with some network knowledge, may prefer a dedicated router platform,
such as Mikrotik, UBNT, OpenWRT, etc...
- Beginners or standalone users may prefer plug-and-play setup on a
Raspberry Pi. The most obvious example that comes to my mind is Pi-Star
(a very good Pi appliance for digital modes hotspot or repeater, which
embeds many existing software for D-Star, DMR, YSF etc... into a
coherent and easy to use WEB UI).
