I just started tears of the kingdom a few days ago.
- Comment on Cannot reset DNS Settings 1 month ago:
Once you change your DNS server in your router, make sure to renew your clients DHCP lease. It may still be using the stale DNS server. On windows verify its using the new DNS server with: ipconfig /all

If you use Firefox, the reader view works great when you want to look at just the article and nothing else.
- Comment on I'm new to networking and self-hosting and have no idea where to start. 5 months ago:
A custom router + managed switch is a great way to learn. Studying the fundamentals is also good, but in my opinion it’s not as fun as setting up your own network and learning hands-on.
If you decide to go this route I highly reccomend taking regular backups of your config (and backup again before you change stuff). Part of learning involves breaking things - trust me you will break your network - and in networking that’s one of the best ways to learn. Backups will give you an easy way to restore to a known working configuration.
- Comment on Has google stopped working for finding anything? 5 months ago:
I use duckduckgo for personal use and google for work and I have noticed a significant quality drop the results for both.
- Comment on What can I do with an old laptop? 5 months ago:
Yes. A unifi ap connects all my wireless devices to my LAN
- Comment on What can I do with an old laptop? 5 months ago:
Yes its my main router. Everything comes into the laptop across one interface setup as a trunk that includes vlans for WAN, LAN, etc. From there proxmox has a vlan aware linux bridge setup that connects to all the VMs/containers that I run. The VM virtual interfaces get tagged with whatever network I want the host to be part of.
- Comment on What can I do with an old laptop? 5 months ago:
I have a laptop motherboard setup with proxmox running:
- plex
- radarr,sonarr,prowlarr
- opnsense
- foundry VTT
- pi-hole
- unifi controller
- qbittorrent
- kavita
This is running on an i5-1135 with 40gigs of memory. If your frugal about how you have stuff setup you can pack alot of services into old laptops.
- Comment on Weird Wireguard issues I could use some help with. 6 months ago:
If your VPS can connect to your home router as a client it sounds like your wireguard server on opnsense is working correctly.
Might be a problem with your phones WG config. Have you tried taking the client .conf file from your VPS and loading it onto your phone to test a working config file?
