Firstly - I ended up ordering a firewall from Protectli, the VP2420, which I ordered with Coreboot BIOS. Performance has been great, it was easy to setup, and the

New House Projects – Network Planning and Setup
We're in the process of moving from our apartment to a house to call our own. It will be somewhere I can drill holes, make improvements, and really nerd-out. The new spot has, if you can believe it, access to symmetric 2 Gigabit internet service for under $100/month. Ordering a service at this speed is unnecessary for me, as it is for most people, and actually is likely t
