    I managed to get a workable solution for now, but if I get fiber in the Spring, I’ll be rebuilding everything with the things I’m learning now and I’ll probably want to use a nicer router.

      Any routers looking good to you yet? I keep debating building a custom Linux home server box with a beefy wireless card that can double as a home server and NAS. Because very few routers look good to me and I’ve been thinking of upgrading my home server anyway.

        I’m not sure. I ended up with the eeros because of the mesh and the fact that the upstairs office always had weak signal. I don’t like them and I’ve been generally de-googling and de-amazoning my life. The self-built route appeals to me too. Ultimately, I’ll settle somewhere between off-the-shelf and DIY, but there’s no better way to learn that to do it the hard way from the ground up. In regards to actual hardware, is there a Lemmy community for honest reviews by real people?
