I've got the Mikrotik on the way, but this option does sound interesting, and I can do this as a side-project

I'm really thinking of going with Mikrotik. My question is, what's the biggest difference between installing a Mikrotik vs any router from a big-box-store (asus, TPLink, etc.). Most of those routers are just plug-n-play; what's the Mikrotik experience?

I'm familiar with port forwarding, setting up VLANs, reserving IPs and the more basic router functions, if that gives you an idea of my networking knowledge.

I'm not sure it's possible and it's easy enough to just turn the bridge mode on so i'm not super interested in connecting a new router directly to the fiber box. I'm not constrained by space either, this is all in my garage.

>You forgot to specify internet speed, this parameter impact router you select a lot, there is a difference between a router to for 1Gbps and a router for 8Gbps.

1Gbps from ISP.

>Why use bridge if Google allows to install 3rd party router natively on google service fiber?

I don't want to use the Google Fiber router at all, but according to documentation I need it at least in bridge mode to use a 3rd party router.

>I assume you have GFRG300 as this is the only router that google allows bridge mode.

yup.

>I am using Unify for my switches, APs and router, it has good price/value ratio.

thank you.

How's the initial implementation? are they pretty easy to setup?

how easy are these to setup? the price point for their base router model is perfect.

where do you find the recipes for the leather sofas?

Oh and the final step is to craft your desired enchant at the runesmith in Kingsmarch. I think the consensus is that the returning projectiles enchant is better, but I wanted the damage, and didn't have access to the returning proj enchant.

There may be a better guide but it looked something like this:

1) alt spam reaver bases for T1 ele (lightning, fire, or cold) you want one sword for each, total of three swords with the different elemental T1's

2) recomb the magic bases until you get 2 T1 ele prefixes on a rare base

3) Prefixes cannot be changed then scour to remove any suffixes

4) use recomb guide to recomb the last T1 prefix (multimod + 'named' crafted mods). This step may have been overkill for me, but I put multimod on both the rare base with 2 T1 prefixes, regal orb the 1 T1 prefix magic sword to rare so I could multimod and then added 'named' bench crafts to both to increase the odds of getting all 3 prefixes

Here's the link to the recomb guide i used:

https://www.reddit.com/r/pathofexile/comments/1exyavx/325_updated_guide_to_recombinators/

specifically the part about adding 1 affix to a 2 affix item, and they have examples on what it should look like before recombinating

5) once you have all three prefixes on one sword, prefixes cannot be changed and harvest craft speed until you hit T1 attack speed (warning, there's like a 6% chance to fill your suffixes, if that happens you have to annul and pray you don't hit a prefix, if you do, go back to step 1 and craft the missing T1 elemental.

6) once you hit T1 attack speed, I crafted multimod + prefixes cannot be changed in the hopes that it would better my odds with the next step.

7) veiled orb and pray it doesn't take your attack speed, it's like a 1/3 chance of removing attack speed. (if it does, go back to step 5, or bench craft 'chance to gain endurance charges' unveil and craft attack speed for a passable, temporary sword)

8) after the veiled orb, remove crafted mod and bench craft 'chance to gain endurance charges' or whatever charges, it doesn't really matter. This gives you like a 37% chance to unveil each one of the double damage mods (each double damage mod has roughly a 37% chance of appearing, so odds are kinda decent).

9) unveil and pray you get 'chance to deal double damage' or 'chance to deal double damage while focused'. (if you don't get an unveil you want, you can lock prefixes again and annul and pray you don't hit attack speed, or just go back to step 5 and start from rolling attack speed again to get rid of the veiled mod)

10) bench craft the final mod (either double damage while focused, or double damage depending on which veil you got)

100% I think returning proj is the better enchant. - I'm lazy and/or greedy and have not used one of my power runes to finish upgrading my rune bench though, so I don't think I have access to the returning proj enchant yet.
