Using pfSense with a L3 core switch
Upgraded today to 24.03. Pretty uneventful. Interface seems a bit snappier though and i also have the impression that the HAproxy pass-through is a bit faster. Had a small issue with accessing my cloud-server but it seems an entry i had to change with a previous upgrade needed to go back to the... -
Does it make sense to change my modem?
Good question. The double NAT has been bothering me for quite some time now. And not that i need it right now, it also makes IPv6 setup pretty complicated. -
Does it make sense to change my modem?
The thing is, my ISP doesn't allow you to buy your own, otherwise i would have done that a long time ago already With regards to bandwidth, the whole idea is to not saturate it. With the whole family streaming all the time, i don't think 1Gbps is luxury anymore these days. -
Does it make sense to change my modem?
I do run a Nextcloud instance with its own FQDN with certs and a proxy. -
Does it make sense to change my modem?
I do have an X550-T2 in my pfSense box so the port is there. -
Does it make sense to change my modem?
My modem is ISP provided and can be changed on request. For now, it is a DOCSYS3.0 HGW with built-in router and wifi. This means my pfSense router is connected to one of the 4 LAN ports of the HGW and the WAN IP on pfSense is a LAN IP from the HGW which means in essence double NAT. The HGW wifi... -

EdgeRouter Lite - i need help, or another router recommendation
I would actually recommend to have the ER doing the DHCP and firewall together. I actually did that through the wizard when you do an initial setup. Sorry i don't know the specifics anymore as this was 5 years ago and i have moved on in the mean time. Initially to Mikrotik as i found the ERL-3... -
Solved router connected to ISP router
I have been running my own router including a server with external access behind the ISP's router for many years now. I configured the ISP routers LAN IP to my routers WAN as DMZ, switched all ISP router wifi, firewall and filter functionality off and for the rest opened up ports 80 and 443 on... -

Typical home NAS setup for family pictures/videos
Yeah. Thanks but no thanks. Call me old fashioned but i want a local copy of my critical data so i have full access at any time even if the internet is down. A backup in the cloud on the other hand is a good thing.- ddaenen1

Typical home NAS setup for family pictures/videos
Honestly, i think that is rubbish. I have been running refurbished enterprise 2Tb SAS drives for years now. I bought a lot of 16 in total and over all those years, i have had one that failed gradually over all these years. If i can recall correctly i paid 15 USD a piece. Running TrueNAS with...- ddaenen1

Using pfSense with a L3 core switch
I just figured out that my Xeon E3-1220v2 doesn't support HT so i don't have to bother about that one.
