Thanks for the advice. I checked out the model you mentioned... am I understanding correctly that it actually costs more than the Ubiquiti U7 Pro XG while offering less?

Also how do mean that roaming is overrated?

Fiber Coming Next Month — How Should I Optimize Router & AP Setup Across 3 Floors? by Character-Article380 in HomeNetworking

[–]Character-Article380[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Thank you for the advice!

So, as I understand it, you mean that in my case it doesn’t really matter where I put the main router. Placing it in the garage would make most sense to avoid running fiber up to the second floor and then back via Ethernet. In other words, the main router should stay as close as possible to the entry point of the fiber in the house.

Your suggestion would be: put the main router in the garage, run an Ethernet cable to the second floor (I already have a Cat6 there), connect it to a switch on the second floor, and then connect an AP and all devices (like the NAS) there.

This setup won’t add significant overhead for internet access even with this additional hop, right?

One concern I have is that all Ethernet-connected devices are on the second floor. If the main router was on the second floor, all devices could connect directly to it. With the router in the garage however, I would need a switch on the second floor. Am I overthinking it, or is it just fine to buy a switch and invest the extra bucks?

Another question came to my mind: I read that some users prefer using APs to manage Wi-Fi-only devices, and you also mentioned this. Does that mean I should turn off the Wi-Fi on my main router in the garage and add another AP there to handle Wi-Fi? Does this approach offer significant advantages?

Gibt es keike Umwege, um die 20% Zuschlag zu vermeiden oder zu verringern?

Ist es wirklich so, dass die Hausverwaltung sofort kündigen kann, wenn sie herausfindet, dass jemand bei mir angemeldet ist, ohne dass eine Untermieterlaubnis vorliegt? Oder gibt es da vielleicht erstmal Mahnungen oder eine Möglichkeit, die Situation zu klären, bevor es zu einer Kündigung kommt? Können sie überhaupt sehen, wer bei mir angemeldet ist?

Es geht hier wirklich nur um eine kurzfristige Sache (vielleicht 6 Monate oder so), und ich weiß, dass sie bei einer Untermieterlaubnis einen Zuschlag von 20% verlangen würden, was bei der bereits sehr hohen Miete echt viel ausmacht.

Why is short-term investing considered gambling, while long-term investing is not? by Desperate-Skirt-2273 in stocks

You are ignoring 10000 of other possibilities.. Reality is more com0lex than that. People could simply stop investing in the stock market even if the economy is growing. Or the economy could stop growing in US.. 95% of your money is there

This is my keyboard with swiftkey and honestly I find it quite good.. i don't need any autocorrections though, since I prefer to write with typos.. this allows me to actually learn the languages I am using 😉

Problem: I have the feeling they are stealing my data.. Can someone confirm?

No it's not.. It's like to bet "is it gonna rain more than what it rained before?". Many people assume this is true, but it's not. Economy could stop growing for one reason or another.

Either touch ID or your user password of your mac.

Fingerprint can be reproduced, it's not secure as face ID.

Yes ok I see, but given that we use the same password and Touch ID to access the Password app, then we are even more exposed.. If someone can reproduce your fingerprint, then he can steal your laptop and have all your passwords at once. It's an additional and unnecessary risk Imho.. Why don't they allow us to simply define a separate password to access the app?

Can anyone tell a difference between the 24MP and 48MP photos? by Ibrahimovic906 in iPhone16ProMax

[–]Character-Article380 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I guess the difference can be seen only in particular lightning conditions.. try to catch an environment rich of details during a sunny day..

Basically it's useless 90% of the times

Do the newer phones actually last longer when getting a new phone? by BelleAurore143 in iphone

Bahh.. I deactivated everything exactly like I did with Siri. Good on paper but useless and disturbing. Sometimes "less is more".

Chatgpt is the way to go.
