I read up to you having the LG C4? Do you like it? I have the B9 which knock on wood hasn’t skipped a beat for me and is still getting…

Yep. But unfortunately I feel users of toslink is a minority. Most people go the tv/soundbar route and probably do music and movies through…

Yeah for that use it’s perfect. But I suppose my comment was more for movie content. Never really been impressed with Atmos music content…

Very true… but when you can run a HDMI cable (which you’d probably need anyway for visual), for ARC/eARC, you can see why no one uses…

I would 2nd the glinet routers. But only look at it if you are going to run it as your main router. Otherwise probably cheaper to get a…

Moving forward... See if she qualifies for FTTP upgrade (move providers if you have to) Change Modems to the Telstra Gen 2 modem (get a…

6GHz isn't the answer. You need to have devices that have that capability. 5GHz has a bunch of channels that you can use...

The Gen 1 (DJA0230) is quite an old device now. Could purchase the Gen 2 (had too many people contact me with issues with the power supply…

I personally go with a Gen 2 Telstra Modem. Buy for $20. If it goes wrong, guess what buy another one. Will work with Exetel. If you had…

They aren’t that bad. I’m running 2 currently… they go ok. Why aren’t you a fan?

Well it wouldn't be a NAS, but for example, if you were running windows for example, you would attach a USB cable in. Just run plex media…

Look at the arrrs on docker. Especially if you have a nas. If torrent server is your thing…

What else do you want it to do? Home assistant you could run on it, opensense (but you’d want one with dual network ports).

Well depends. If you place it in a tight space you’d have issues. But open would be fine.

Man the world’s your oyster! I have proxmox on a asus nuc, I run AdGuard, Tailscale, WireGuard Server, Docker, MakeMKV, Plex media…

There you go... I have mine in a box in storage, so can't check myself.

Yeah you can. Just can't use it with those that use Vlan tagging

I really considered getting this. But couldnt find enough detail on it. I hear it gets quite loud on load. Unable to adjust Ram and SSD and…

By the sounds of it you live in an apartment with Opticomm. From what I've heard its a privitised version of the NBN put into apartment…

Just to add to this. Only the DJA0231 version of the Gen 2 can be rooted. It has vents on the side is typically the easiest way to tell…

Prices are going up... Look at the usual suspects. Superloop, Exetel, More (if you are a CBA customer) and move before the price goes up in…

What I would do is grab a Glinet Router. 2 reasons. If you are using your phone you don't have a firewall. That will give you a little bit…

TPG with FTTC from memory uses VLAN Tagging... Why people go with TPG, I'll never know... but anyways Telstra modem won't work with them as…

Something doesn't feel right to me... The fact he doesn't want you to come to his place but its ok for removalists. He gets your address…

These have amazing range…but wasn’t blown away and found my rooted modem was just as good once rooted… I appreciate it has some great…

Heaps of USB ports and just mount in terminal I would assume.

For AdGuard you need an OS on it. I run Zorin OS (Linux) but ububtu or Debian would work fine. Use a program to mount the OS install onto…

Seperate would be best. Home assistant works best as its own OS. Seperate for NAS and or router.

Wifi and Bluetooth chips are typically not included. It’s either wifi chip or Ethernet chip. I decided the additional Ethernet chip…

Yeah here.…
