Given the issues I was having with #DNS on my #HomeNetwork I've written a post about how I made things a little better.

I totally understand men that obsess over their lawn. I do the exact same thing with my home network.

Having some internal network DNS issues with #footiMac
Anyone have any good recommendations for replacing a Telus Fibre (Telus Wifi Hub https://www.telus.com/en/support/article/telus-wi-fi-hub-installation)router with a 3rd party that supports advanced stuff like DNS loopback? In addition to the home router I have a Mesh WIFI provided by Deco (TP-Link) M9 stations, and a TP-Link 28 port switch.

I need quick feedback. I'm looking for a (managed?) 8-10 port network switch. Should I go with TP-Link or Netgear? Or is there some brand I'm not aware of? Must be available in Germany ideally on Amazon Germany with Prime as I "need" it tomorrow.

I'm currently considering this one: https://amzn.to/3SvUFlM

I need to rebuild one of my spare routers, and I'm debating what to run on it. Choices are...
Debian
Ubuntu Server (50-50 about this)
OpenWRT (yep there's a PC build of that - https://openwrt.org/docs/guide-user/installation/openwrt_x86)
PFSense or Opnsense

The first two are nosing ahead, because for this mess I need multiple VLANs, a DHCP server for each VLAN, optional cross-VLAN routing, IPv4 and v6 firewalling and NAT.

I'm kinda leaning towards Ubuntu/Debian because it's what I know...

Les intérêts que je vois au VPN Cloudflare Warp :

• masque l'IP de chez moi, m'évite ainsi peut-être la malveillance de certains sites web que je consulte, idk ?
• accélère mon trafic, maybe
• route automatiquement le trafic sur le chemin le plus optimisé
  On dit souvent qu'il faut avoir autant confiance en son fournisseur de VPN qu'en son FAI. Honnêtement, j'ai autant (voire davantage) confiance en Cloudflare qu'en Free

First box of goodies from FS has arrived. Time to fibre up the place. 😬

Tech question. I have an older non-wifi USB printer. Can I just plug it into a USB port on my router and find it on the network wifi from our laptops?

Part 2- if not, what is the most reliable wifi printer as far as maintaining a stable connection? I’ve given up on my Epson at work and plugged it in.

I need a robust solution for my non-tech spouse and no longer have a connected computer to share from when I’m gone with my MBP.
