Although running it yourself has its drawbacks, IPFS overloads most home routers.
Discussion
Maybe if you're using your ISP provided one like you suggested previously lol. Just get a OpenWrt One or a GLiNet and flash OpenWRT. I run an i2p router, public monero node and Tor relay totalling over 5000 active connections and it barely uses like 1% CPU and 10% RAM
Can you share some sources how to flash a GLiNet router?
Can you flash back the factory OS on the GLiNet router after you tried OpenWRT?👀
I've never done it on GLiNet I've just flashed my OpenWRT One to update.
Find yours on https://openwrt.org/. You'll have to do some digging on that site but the docs are pretty decent IMO and search works well enough.
Generally you can flash back to the original OS, I can't think of an instance where you can't for any firmware flashing. The GLiNet default firmware is a proprietary fork of OpenWRT so it's already pretty similar. I brought them up since they're generally pretty powerful for the price and take to flashing well from what I've heard in the OpenWRT forums.
The IPFS on File-Drop is optimized to use almost 97% less bandwidth and doesn't require NAT Transversal.
