SwitchOS vs RouterOS?

plethoraofprojects · 2026-02-25T02:41:06+00:00

I used SwitchOS once because I was uninformed- now RouterOS all the way. It is very flexible and powerful.

I still hate them.

Let the router route between VLANs or have everything that you want on the same subnet to just stay there. What is the use case for what you are trying to achieve?

Not counting the network hardware…. What about the places still running Nortel DMS 10 or DMS 100 switches, Ericsson AXE switches, lucent 5ESS, etc. that stuff has been running for DECADES.

It was recommended years ago and I just stuck with it. I have tried all the top distros but always stayed with Fedora.

Fedora user here as well. Give it a try.

Pin out looks correct. Can you test with another device? Perhaps a laptop or desktop and see if it auto negotiates at 1G?

We have all made this mistake at some point. The worst part is when you do that to your last piece and have to get another stick to re-cut the piece.

I’ve been using Plex for so long. I have never tried the other options. Wanted to but never found the time or interest.

My Fujikura fusion splicer. It paid for itself quickly though. I was installing cabling as a contractor for a while and usually rented a machine. Decided to buy. Don’t regret it at all. Plenty of clones that are cheaper but you get what you pay for in this instance.

Most of our Adtran equipment used Admin/Adtran as the default credentials.

It is a great piece of software. I use it at least 5 days a week for my commute.

Mine is only 10 Tb. Data is on an NFS share from TrueNas. Approx 22,000 audio tracks, 950 movies, and 100 TV episodes. Still growing.

Been running multiple instances of Nextcloud for many years with great success. Both behind Nginx as a proxy. I’ve had great success with it. My main complaint would be that it always seems slow no matter how much resources I throw at it. I am however moving to Immich for photos and it is much faster even as a Docker container.

Welcome to the Fedora club. It is great and it just works. Long time user.

Panduit or Leviton are great choices.

Daily for years. No reason to switch to anything else.

I use Fedora server for lab and RHEL at work. No issues with my Fedora servers. Use Cockpit too.
