Cutting the cable, lets talk options and media setups
What exact setup would you recommend. My older Asus is crapping out to the point where I need to reset nightly because everything local stops working with each other.
I want something fairly robust for now, but also looking into my near future needs. Building a house, and dropping Cat6 everywhere, including most light locations, wall switches, camera locations, 2 behind each tv, etc, and I plan to get either a managed 24 or 48 port switch with POE. I have no need to drop the money on the switch now as I won't need it for another 10 to 12 months, but need to address my router situation yesterday. Need something with great AC coverage, needs to be able to forward 20+ ports without a hitch (or handle a reverse proxy gettup if I get off my butt and do it), and just need a couple 1gb ports as my 2 servers are the only items hardwired for now. I'm leaning towards an ubiquiti AP and just getting a 4 or 8 port switch, that way I can use when AP when when I move. I'll more than likely need a POE switch though, for the AP. I'm also farting around with the idea of spinning up a pfsense VM (have dual NICs on a Proxmox host) and letting that run my router duties, amoung other things.
So what are your thoughts if you don't mind? You know a crap load more about this stuff then me :)
