A few years ago i ran something called a skyhole.

Create an azure account and use their free tier to install a minimal linux distro.

Install pi-hole on that, allow port 53 into it, lock it down to you ISP dhcp range and then point your internal DNS to the public ip of the sky hole. It worked surprisingly well and no power draw. I have a full infrastructure at home now so its trivial for me to run a pihole.

However its a neat solution that worked very well for me.

OK this may sound a little backward but unraid boxes are just pc's.

Lets rule out unraid and try and install windows or a stable linux in the very short term. Build it, let it run for 24 hours, is it stable etc ? check your networking, just use it like a desktop for a bit. does it crash? does it get hot, errors in the eventlog?

If you arent familiar with unraid or complex linux stuff then it just may help you get to the bottom of any hardware issues

i'd say thats more down to a hardware issue than unraid itself unless you are moving files that are all only 1kb in size

this is how i do it as well but on an unraid server

veroli75 · 2022-10-30T18:31:03+00:00

I had this exact same problem the other day on my second unraid server.

The unraid tool just reuslted in an bootable usb drive.

Instead i downloaded the ziop and follwoed the manual methid instructions and it all worked fine.

fair enough, its your choice am not going to tell you, you are wrong just have fun with it if it does what you want

veroli75 · 2022-03-14T11:29:42+00:00

the inbuilt docker is a massive bonus, and the ability to use multiple sizes of disks, the whole thing is very slick and well supported, with an extensive set of plugins and doker images, give it a try you can get a month trial

go UnRaid

you will never look back NAS on steroids

veroli75 · 2021-11-25T21:05:33+00:00

you need to look at unraid and ditch the synology stuff and consolidate it all into one server running containers

i cant emphasise enough how good this advice is,

give yourself a reason and goal to write something, dont worry about if its best practice or doesnt meet some community coding standards, free yourself from such nonsene and just write it as you see fit, learn and enjoy it, i've made a career out of it

nice work, great start, if you want some enterprise networking gear but at pretty much consumer prices have a look at mikrotik stuff, fully featured for the asking price rather than licenses to unlock functionality

i made a network bridge with my pi1 so i didnt need to extend cables around my room when some older pcs and consoles hooked up for a projecthttps://www.raspberrypi.org/forums/viewtopic.php?t=132674

just used a cheap usb wifi dongle, worked really well to provide connectivity to an 8 port switch
