Cat 5e

The fact that your old cable was cat5e has no bearing whatsoever on you getting shit speeds before changing cables. The gigabit spec was codified and products were on the market before the cat5e spec was ratified. Gigabit ethernet was literally made for standard cat5. I bet your previous cable was terminated incorrectly, and was only using two of the four pairs, limiting you to 100mbit.

500MB, not Mb. Order of magnitude difference there.

how can it be that my little mini J1900 Celeron (2 GHz) with 4 GB RAM cannot handle this bandwith?

Because it’s ancient, and when it was new it was bottom-of-the-barrel.

gen.xyz controls all .xyz domains, even yours. Doesn’t matter where you registered it.

So if both sides are behind CGNAT and at least one doesn’t have IPv6, establishing a direct link is impossible.

Tailscale is piss easy to install and set up and works just fine for making a direct link from a CGNATed connection.

They didn’t say it couldn’t be done, just that it isn’t the default way it sets itself up and requires more work.

I’ve since replaced the pros with red plus and they are MUCH quieter.

They’re also slower.
