wanted to go and test this against my home network. read page: "NOT AFFECTED: pfSense"

Damnit, I'm protected by the glory of FreeBSD-based firewalls.

I still tried anyway, but nothing happened :(

It is pretty nice that pfSense isn't bothered by it. I was also happy to see that pfSense wasn't included in the list of software targeted by the NSA's leaked weaponry.

Don't get a false sense of security from that.
