I feel like they would've got more challenging questions had they asked here. They could've even done it on mastodon, with the hashtag . Instead they chose to prop up the closed web 🥺

It looks like it was an interesting AMA. Good answers, though no particularly hard questions.

sabreW4K3 , to homelab in [Questions] Beginner homelab (router/switch)
@sabreW4K3@lazysoci.al avatar

I'm a newbie, so my answers may be wrong. Forgive me. Someone will correct me though 💪

To take full advantage of my ISP's 2.5G ethernet port do I need a router AND a switch capable of 2.5G througput ? Or only the router and the switch is going to divid it accordingly between all connected devices on a 1G switch?

You need a switch capable of 2.5 too

I have no idea what's the best bet, a SBC (bananapi mini, orange pi, raspberry pi...) a fully fleged router (like TP-Link AX1800 and flash it with opensense/openwrt) or an Intel N100 Celeron N5105 Soft Router ?

This one is 100% preference and it comes down to what you want to run. The Banana Pi RPi-R3 has good OpenWRT support. N100s have PfSense support out of the box.

But given your requirements, you need OpenWRT/PfSense/OPNSense

Any good recommendation I should look at for a managed switch that would work great with the same capabilities above?

There's some decent recent cheap ones from AliExpress, but if you can afford, grab yourself a UniFi 8 Lite POE. That said, the switch you linked seems a good purchase.

Probably last question, is regarding wifi APs. Is it possible to make an access point from my router even tough it hasn't atennas? If I connect an access point directly to my router, will it be capable of giving away wifi connection?

Depends on the router, but some old routers you can stick in AP mode. Some you can flash OpenWRT and then make an access point. If it works, it's usable.

But again, take everything I said with a grain of salt. It just so happens I've been asking similar questions of late and am just telling you what stuck.

Would you recommend a separate POE switch for the cameras?

Is there anything you would change if you had to start all over again?

Good thing you said that. I thought the firewall rules were automatically set via OpenWRT.

@sabreW4K3@lazysoci.al avatar

This is such an epic post. I am super grateful. I was definitely thinking about a POE switch because it just makes sense to me that you'd have the network power what it can rather than have to monitor batteries.

Talking of which, I hope we get Power Over Thread coming to Matter 2.0. That would be glorious. It wouldn't even need a lot of power, just enough to keep motion sensors topped up.

Thank you so so much.
