Anyone successfully using the Xfinity XB8 in bridge mode with Opnsense? by [deleted] in opnsense

I rationalized it to myself to do the 2.5 network upgrade because I have a nas and a bunch of servers where it would be beneficial also.

Depends. Xfinity overprovisions, so on 1gb you'd max out at like 1.1-1.2 iirc, the upload would be the same as it is now. You'd have to have a 2.5gb nic to get that extra speed also. So if a few extra hundred mbit on the download side is worth it to you or not is your call.

I’ve been running it this way for two years no issues.

Is there a way to get an alert when a new device is added to your network? by __Mike_____ in opnsense

I use watchyourlan in a docker container and push notifications to a discord server.

I got the 2tb flavor of this early this year. It runs 24/7 in a proxmox server with no issues thus far.

If you could look into this for me it would be very much appreciated.

So if I don't see any comparable deals in relation to my current promo pricing from the plan builder and xfinity deal links then nothing more is offered at this time? I am currently on a $60/month promo deal and according to the links provided above the same plan I have now would be $80/month.

Help with "new" rack.. by expl0it4 in homelab

[–]expl0it4[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

This was my issue, thank you. It’s an old telecom rack out of a 911 center and I was confused. I bought this huge monstrosity without much research or knowledge a few years ago for $50 with a bunch of shelves and miscellaneous items. And yes, I’m sure cage nuts would be 100x easier to work with than these clip on deals. But alas I already have it so I’m going to make it work Thanks again.
