Nice try NSA

Moving at the end of the month. I've got a Moto MB7420 modem, and I bought a Ubiquiti Edgerouter X and UAP-AC-LITE, with a Raspberry Pi running the Unifi controller software. I've also got an old PC with a RAID card in it as a RAID 10 NAS.

nice trips

I have pfSense running on an old dual-core Pentium I had sitting around, and an old Asus 802.11g piece of crap in dumb-access-point mode plugged into it.

Primary ISP - Cable DHCP
Secondary ISP - DSL (because cable is unreliable as shit)

Primary router RT-N66U with dual WAN enabled. Custom antennas to actually reach the front of the house.
Secondary routers:
DD-wrt wzr-300 in client bridge mode using 2.4GHz N from gaming/porn subnet
Wired dd-wrt 54g in office

shitty cisco spa122 for phone line

I have these linksys meme (EA9500)

It is probably a botnet, but I can get full strength wifi even at my neighbors house when I fuck his wife.

Guys if I have a router like OP's and it's in the top floor of the house, how should I position it/the antennas if I'm located in the basement of the house? Right now I have it standing up and the antennas are sticking out of the front of it. I have an AC-68U though and I'm told that with beamforming it doesn't matter.

DLS modem is higher tier Vigor
both wifi routers are cheap like $15 tp links with openwrt on them
they propagate same wifi network so it seamlessly changes you walk from range of one in to the range of the other
like month ago I managed to finally one made repeater, so it does not need cable anymore

cryptobox 650 is satelite tv settopbox and it connectes to russians servers to decode all the stations for $5 month

Page 9 of your manual gives you the supported solution. Assuming omnidirectional you want to be be someplace perpendicular to the cylindrical faces of the antenna.

if you are below it you might consider turning them to be parallel to the floor however that may cause signal loss on the sides of your house.

Pic sort of related.

Just configured my router for IPv6 as my ISP rolled it out, anyone else done it yet? Is there much use until the official switch is made?

>>58903068
it's strange I actually doubt that most LANs and home networks will ever make the switch. It would be like home routers running BGP where I question if the upgrade is worth the loss of simplicity to any of the parties involved.

Bravo to your tastes, sir. That's quite the selection.

I have pfSense running on a mini-pc from China and a D-Link DIR-859 running DD-WRT as a wireless AP (not pictured). The antennas on the mini-pc aren't being used because I wasn't satisfied with pfSense's wireless setup.

Waiting for my apu2c4 board. Pfsense and wlan card should do the trick

>>58903068
there won't be a switch ever, because fucking NAT

Good luck NSA

>>58903068
i tried it too. but seems a lot of sites haven't set things up right or the routing is still shitty. switched it off for now. there were some ipv6 only sites but wasn't worth the bad connections. maybe later.

I got a dir 615 wireless router. Really shitty stock firmware, wireless dies every 6 hours and massive issues on Clover until I reboot.

Flashed it with ddwrt last night, shits running smooth now. I dont have the cash to buy a new router right now but will upgrade eventually

My other problem is that this house im renting has ethernet in the walls but it all went unlabeled and unterminated to a master closet. Put some plugs on those, threw a switch but I'm not sure if the cable is dead in the wall or what but there's one room downstairs i just cant figure what the issue is. It seems a cable plugged in but no Internet. My plex server is down there so its a bummer.

On shitty 3/1 time warner/spectrum

Something like this.

I use a pringle can to shoot wifi to the cafe across the road and hope retards connect to it.

>>58901729
Quite similar to my setup, I like the idea of running the Unifi on the Pi, might give that a shot. Nice one.

I've got some model of ISP provided fibre optic modem (150 Mb/s symmetrical) going into a D-Link DIR-859. One port on that goes to my main desktop. Another port runs to the living room, where an 8 port dumb switch connects it to a few consoles, smart tv, and HTPC. Wifi is used to connect the bedroom's HTPC for now, but I'm planning on changing the layout of the bedroom to allow that to be fed by ethernet instead. That would leave my phone as the only device connecting to wifi, maybe my tablet if I ever get around to replacing the screen/digitizer.

>smart tv
I hope this is just on LAN.

>>58910380
Not him, but get off /g/ of you're a pleb

>>58910423
I used to to install a firmware update and never saw any reason to bother unplugging it.

Well then I guess it's a good thing I do not and have not ever owned anything made by Vizio, or live in the United States.

I use a MikroTik ( / Routerboard) RB951G-2HnD

If you aren't using a MikroTik or Cisco router you are doing it wrong.
