To shamelessly copy my last post.. Just logged in after several months away, surprised to see this thread still going :), ok fair enough it isn't and hasn't since May so shameless bump I guess. Wishing you all the best for Christmas, Winter Festivals and a Happy 2026. May Santa bring you all...

Tarred and feathered myself while updating to this on a laptop and being dragged through the streets of London as passer-by's shouted Shame. Despite this it seems to be working as expected. Nothing better than a Sunday morning firmware update. Life is Good.

It seems the 16gb version has sold out or is no longer for sale, The 8gb version is available for a £88.75.

Contact [email protected] they might be able to help you. I don't think you can avoid the VAT though, we've been trying for decades :D

It's ok I lost myself on that as well, I just read up on it and it involves VLans etc to achieve it. Interesting one for the pros though. My setup is also dull, but it keeps the family happy right. Maybe one day I'll wipe it all and do a fresh install just for the fun.

Yes it's a "router" I would suspect PFSense is potentially better if you spend hours with manual configuration, however unifi has it's own hardware firewall that is integrated into the ecosystem. For protecting a home network both (and what you have already) are more than adequate. Just to...

So massive overkill as your family don't appear to have 250 devices each connected to wifi that are continously on :) A small gateway is more than enough and you can still connect your pc via wire to the switch. Even what you have already can typically handle 20-50 devices. I would look at...

If this is just for you to play cod warzone, it's overkill. Especially the R750 which can handle 1024 concurrent users :) In my experience the higher the wifi version the speed is better for sake of crap range. If it were me, and I have been discussing Unifi quite a bit. I would go for...

Fair, I was really enjoying comp until they killed it in 2024 to try Tbh I don't really know, I know there is a lot of building work going on over there first, assume when that is complete they will start putting in the network. The Disc cutter for running the cabling through the concrete is...

Nothing wrong with CoD, except they rip you off by forcing you to buy it every year if you want to play competitive. Only reason I don't play it now :)

It works correctly upon Install however what I mean is that over time you will need to whitelist some websites/hosts as on occasion there are false positives. (you may find some websites not working and will have to debug to discover if this is a skynet block) - There is a correct way of...

Has anyone else ever wondered if @Adamm really looks like his Avatar? (or am I weird? - no don't answer that, we're all weird here right?)

https://github.com/Adamm00/IPSet_ASUS Skynet is a powerful addition to your firewall. Your router doesn't "need" it to work, it is just a tool that you can addon to your router. It can be complex to set up correctly, and it can cause anxiety "if" your knowledge of the reports is lacking. Only...
