  • You haven’t mentioned what sort of access link or speed you have, that seems very relevant here.

    For my 1Gbit/s fiber connection the Edgerouter 6P has been pretty good. It has an SFP port and can route 1 Gbit/s of traffic without issue and my dual-stack setup works well too.

    The only significant downside is that its switching is slow, it has no hw support. So I put my NAS on a separate subnet instead so that the traffic to it can be routed instead.





  • No, I use the old desktops for that.

    Old laptops usually seem to go to other people:

    • My first one I gave one to a girl who’s house burned down in my street.
    • The second one went to my ex who is on really hard financial times and the old Macbook she got from another good soul died on her.
    • The third one I traded in with my mom who really wanted a light one, and in exchange she contributed to…
    • My fourth one that had more power for compiling things in my studies. This one I still have and use occasionally.
