- Comment on Homelab networking recommendations? 2 weeks ago:
Not knowing what your goal is, I’ll start with this: I had very similar hardware to you, and while I was fine with the Omaha Ui, I just never could get it setup how I needed or wanted. I had the er605v2, 3 eap615 wall WiFi 6 apps, and a switch for PoE from the Omaha line but don’t recall the model. I just finally gave up on it, and moved the er605 and wall WiFi APs to OpenWRT. Setup my network with a dumb PoE switch and 4 VLANs and haven’t looked back. It all just works and I almost never mess with it. I’m not saying it wasn’t a little work initially, but it’s been worth it. I’ve now added a 4th wall WIFI (just download a backup of an existing one, install openWRT and restore to the new one. Change the IP and done.) I added two managed PoE Switches with OpenWRT as well. So it’s allowing me to grow as I need to.
- Comment on Trouble setting Let's Encrypt certificates for Pangolin 2 months ago:
How long did you wait to visit the site after adding it to pangolin? I ask, because if you set it up and go within 30 seconds of saving you may see the cert warning initially. It can LetsEncrypt time to verify a site and issue a cert. it’s usually pretty fast, but I’ve seen it take up to 30 seconds or a little longer.
I’ve hit the same thing where I setup a site through Pangolin and go to it too fast, but if I just close the tab and wait about 20 seconds then go again, it all comes up with a proper cert. hope that helps.

Cheap VPS with Pangolin for Wireguard and reverse proving through the tunnel.

If you can get It’s blessing I’d suggest something like KASM workspaces or WebTops, basically a Linux desktop in the browser.

- Comment on What is your self-hosting setup for home thermostat? 7 months ago:
I use an ecobee termostat with Wifi and three extra sensores places around my home. Home Assistant already has an add-on for it, add the thermostat card and it goes to work. Set whatever automations you want.

Glad you got Coturn working, what was it?
Haven’t messed with retention and deletion yet. Not enough data to mess with it so far.

Just and FYI those are my pages and Video, and I also don’t have sliding sync working yet. I work on it here and there, but other than Element X, I’ve had no issues getting clients to connect to my servers running dendrite. I’ll update those docs, and probably do an update video when I get it working on Dendrite.
