#BurgeonLab #WeekNotes 024 is out (late)!
2026: Week 16/52 (Apr 13 – Apr 19)➡️ https://burgeonlab.com/weeknotes/2026/w16/
Huge personal win from a #homenetworking / #selfhosting newbie! 🥳 I got #Indiekit running on my Pi now with #Docker, #Caddy and #Tailscale. And some notes about general site updates and the usual link roundup!

I am just curious for all you folks that run home computer labs. How do y'all handle DNS? I use dnsmasq because it is pretty powerful and does dynamic DNS automagically.

It's still a *little* jank, but I assure you it's much cleaner and professional-looking than before. All it took was some rack rails, 3D-printing, and a little ingenuity. 😁

Remember when buying a router felt like deciphering a secret code? All those strings of letters like 802.11ac were just confusing. I am glad the industry finally switched to simple numbers. If you want WiFi versions explained for your home, it helps to know which standard actually matters. Your connection is only as fast as its weakest link.

So, gestern noch den OPNsense Fehler wegbekommen, dass keine Pakete akzeptiert wurden übers WAN Interface. Notiz an mich: Nicht zwei Stunden debuggen, sondern einfach mal neustarten.
Die Lösung ist trotzdem kacke so. Der mPCIe Intel I220 Adapter, den ich beim NUC nutzen wollte anstatt der WiFi-Karte, funktioniert nicht, weil der Slot da wohl nur WiFi akzeptiert.
Dh. ich hab jetzt RealTek internal NIC für LAN und USB RealTek NIC für WAN, was so die bescheuertste Kombi ist für OPNsense...
Router-on-a-Stick will ich nicht machen, ich hätte das schon gerne physisch separiert.
Irgendjemand eine Idee für nen:
- MiniPC / dedicated FW Kram
- der Suricata schafft im IPS mode
- bei Peak 1G WAN (8C/8GB RAM wahrscheinlich), LAN reicht 2.5G
- Bonuspunkte für SATA SSD Port, wenig Leistungsaufnahme (<=15W) und bezahlbar ~200-300€
❓
Alternativen bisher:
- Komische Chinarechner mit zweifelhafter Firmwareunterstütztung und keine Ahnung was da an Power ausreicht (N350?)
- Lenovo m720q (220€) mit PCIe Riser (20€) und Intel PCIe NIC (55€) (295€ total)

Ever find yourself staring at a buffering wheel despite paying for high speed internet? Often the issue is your router placement or interference. You can usually fix slow WiFi by moving your router or switching to the 5GHz band. Check out these tips: https://gwizit.com/go/f7tUsOR This post was written by a human but with AI assistance.

Bought a new router (GLi Net Flint 2) which broke my headless Pi SSH connection. Took me a while to realise the Pi doesn't support WPA3. Still working on it... Last night I had to work on the TV as the new router also broke the wifi remote control (IR receiver is broken) connection... Found out that using a keyboard with an Android TV is very unintuitive (it's a Sony Bravia).
Ah... networking. Every time I learn a little bit more!

Trying to decide whether to get a #RaspberryPi or a budget mini pc as a home backup server, AdGuard DNS and home network firewall.
Some Pi setups are as expensive as budget mini PCs and all I'd have to do would be replace Windows with Linux on those.
I've run out of broken and old computers at home for this purpose as my last old laptop's screen broke and now has hard drive failure😁.
Ideas/Input?
Thanks.
