It’s Sunday somewhere already so why wait?
Let us know what you set up lately, what kind of problems you currently think about or are running into, what new device you added to your homelab or what interesting service or article you found.
I’ll post my ongoing things later/tomorrow but I didn’t want to forget the post again.
My NAS and our desktops are all on WiFi, so I’m planning to run some cable or install moca or something. Our uplink is currently only 100mbit (max for this ISP, I refuse to switch) but our city plans to roll out gigabit everywhere in the next couple years, so I want something forward compatible (powerline will probably be too limiting). SO has been complaining about latency, and I think the WiFi card is to blame, so I’m trying this before upgrading the WiFi card.
Our house has the following:
I’m going to try running some cable tomorrow (holiday in the US, just want a test run from bedroom internet source -> basement water heater room), but if that doesn’t work, I’ll need a backup plan.
Anyone have experience with any of the above? Tips?
Go slow. measure 4 times. most rooms don’t need a jack so put APs where it is easy to ge wires and that will feed the other rooms.
