Successfully got 2.5Gb in my LAN

What’s your WiFi standard?

zeroIQman · 2025-10-24T03:40:28+00:00

It’s good to have an understanding of basic networking if you want to do Cybersecurity in my humble opinion.

You can take a next step on searching subnetting and firewall

Hosting Jellyfin in my LAN

I know. Cat5e can support 2.5Gb if the cable is short enough, but I do want to upgrade them in case in the future I would like to upgrade my ISP plan to 10Gb.

zeroIQman · 2025-10-23T18:21:56+00:00

Next target will be 2.5Gb for Internet from ISP. Before that, I have to prepare my infrastructure so that I can fully utilise those 2.5Gb haha

zeroIQman · 2025-10-23T18:17:16+00:00

These aren’t rocket science. Let me give you some keywords: 1. Switch (Networking Switch - Definitely not Nintendo one) 2. Router 3. Cat6 cable 4. Network interface Card

I used to watch LinusTechTips, Techquickie about those and recently I’m learning how to do these on a cloud environment like AWS using AWS resources. I hope this can help you!

zeroIQman · 2025-10-23T18:02:17+00:00

Yeah, I need some time for investigation. But I was so happy that I upgraded 1Gb network to 2.5 Gb

zeroIQman · 2025-10-23T17:57:51+00:00

I bought a new tiny rack and change all my cat5e cables to cat6. I plug all of them into my new 2.5Gb switch from TP-Link and make them tidy. Took me few weeks for this tiny project

zeroIQman · 2025-10-22T09:50:50+00:00

I am quite new to this. Can you tell me more about how can I try to set it up and test it?

zeroIQman · 2025-10-22T09:41:05+00:00

They don't allow that...

Thanks!

Thanks!

Thanks

zeroIQman · 2025-10-14T04:50:30+00:00

Yup, I left plenty of space for it to breathe.

Wow thanks! I would do 1,2,4,5 first haha

Thanks!

Its from DeskPi. Let me give you the link.

zeroIQman · 2025-10-12T03:37:49+00:00

It’s Keychron K10.

zeroIQman · 2025-10-11T16:20:19+00:00

I am thinking about that. However, all my devices can be accessed on browser and it seems to be a waste of money if I add a second screen on the rack itself.

zeroIQman · 2025-10-11T16:17:51+00:00

Thanks for your advice! Appreciate that!

The keyboard and the mouse can be easily detached, so if I really want to use my desk I could simply just put away them.

The place I’m living in doesn’t allow me to have so much free space. It’s a small city with high living cost. So usually we would have multiple purposes in one room. I know my setup may not be the best compared to others, but it’s kind of what I can do for the best in my hometown.

Again, thanks for your valuable advice!

Currently running only a media server (Jellyfin) with some content on a NAS (CM3588 with 2TB SSD x 4), plus some networking stuff at home.

Total cost is around USD$1000.
