In that time, my network has undergone several changes. Here are the major updates: In the (hopefully not too distant) future, my cable ISP plans to upgrade from HFC (Hybrid Fiber/Coax) to full FTTH. When this happens, my speed will increase from 1Gb/50Mb to 5Gb/500Mb—and needless to say, I’ll be ordering that as soon as it’s available! This will boost the total download speed to just over 10Gb (about 10.4Gb, since Starlink tops out around 400Mb/s) and upload to 800Mb/s (with Starlink contributing 40-50Mb/s). That’s why I chose the UCG Fiber. It should handle two 5Gb incoming links, one 10Gb LAN connection, plus the Starlink connection (with IDS/IPS off, of course).https://www.tiernanotoole.ie/2023/02/17/day-45-of-100daysofhomelab.htmlFri, 17 Feb 2023 09:08:58 +0000https://www.tiernanotoole.ie/2023/02/17/day-45-of-100daysofhomelab.htmlDay 45 (little late) of #100daysofhomelab, and still quite busy with $DayJob stuff. Mostly monitoring of the network and the like.

It has rebooted a few times due to memory issues (too many BGP tables being held, so I shut a few down to start with. some cleanup needed there), then the internet connections are a little unstable, and, well, in the last 48 hours, I have spent more time on LTE than on proper internet. It does seem to be working (ish.) now, but not as fast as it was. I am just using the #Zerotier link, so the #Wireguard links are currently off. Anyway, below are some links. I hope to make things work better tomorrow. And i also hope to have a better write up soon too…
