Now that I have time for hobbies again I wanna dive right in to building up a home lab. Right now I just have a Netgear router that reached end of life, and a NAS i’d like to make accessible remotely, and a DIY router seems like the correct next step for me. I’m very interested in ad-blocking network wide and someday I’d like to host my own little webpage, but for now I’m really just barely getting started.

I’m information gathering, I don’t know what I don’t know and my networking skills are pretty weak anyway. But even if your needs and desires have nothing to do with mine, I also just like to hear people talk about their set ups. Please? 🌞

    Thank you that’s EXTREMELY helpful! I agree that maxing out at 65w and pulling maybe 30 the rest of the time isn’t so bad, but I really wasn’t sure what to expect.

    That also means if I find I actually hate it and in a year I’m like “fuck it I’m done tinkering” I didn’t spend a ton of extra money on equipment.
