- This is the much requested Tour of My Home Network. I tour starting at the demarcation point where the fiber enters the home, my network closet, my office office, wireless networking, security, and other neat things about my home network! Follow along and let me know in the comments how you did your network!

Thanks for saying Alexa about 10 times in a row
Michael Bishop I just found this video, great setup until the Alexa bit. Talk about throwing away your security and privacy down the drain. Also hope those security cloud backups are encrypted...
Yeah I was completely puzzled at that point. What am I watching?
Watching someone brag.
LOL, man they'd hate me programming those things...after about the 3rd time I'd have Alexa programmed to say, what in the hell do you want, stop calling my name LOL.
@@verios44 .. u do realize using ANY tech is basically giving up your privacy...
the Fiber Ninja would have a few things to say about your network setup.
Alan Ferkinhoff
😂
yes he would I love his Channel
So sad that he stopped uploading...
That is one HECK OF of Network Setup just to download and watch porn..... :^)
GB/s Pornhub
this isn't funny
@@und4287 Are we supposed to care what you think?
xvideos
@Dinh Nguyen you don't want to watch porn in 4k. You can't unsee that stuff,1080 is more than enough.
your electricity bill must be madness
That is exactly what I was thinking.
According to my UPSes the draw is about $10 a month. Nothing to worry about.
TheGeekPub btw nice setup
damn Americans! Cheap everything :/
Yeah, not believing that. What is the wattage of all your devices combined?
264$ for 500/500?! Man, we can get it for like 50 bucks a month here
you're house is amazing, like real life version from the "Smart House" movie, but better. wish I was this smart. great house
You are way too kind!
One question about separate camera network. You've said that it prevents someone from accessing your home network if they access camera network, however I remember reading somewhere that vlans aren't meant for security, they are used for logical device separation and performance improvements (due to lesser amount of CPU interrupts generated on ARPs and other broadcasts).
So are they a good method of isolating networks from intruders? I'm learning networking right now, so sorry if my question sounds dumb.
Дмитрий Ковалёв i am sure he will reply but VLANs are also used for security. I think he said that it will prevent access to camera network if someone gets in home network.. since they will be on separate VirtualLans, access from one network shouldnt mean data on other can be accessed... very nicely done
You are correct. The VLANs are separated by my firewall.
That sounds like a great video idea. With IOT devices making people nervous, a lot of us would benefit from knowing about VLAN's and setting them up, when to use them, when not to, why you use them to segment, hardware vs software? I'd definitely like to implement it, kind of hard getting a starting point..
That is a huge amount of tech for a home. Looks like you put a lot of time and effort into it. :-)
That is all wrong, take it down and give it to me!!!!! Haha wow sweet setup, I wouldn't even want to know the final cost of all your equipment.
RBD Works I was actually thinking the same thing.... Lol ;D
Great idea! It's incredible for just home use. However, I have 1 suggestion: ditch the mac. :)
Adam G Nah, macs are great!
macs are more reliable then windows desktops.......
Great use of space. Definitely liked how you're controlling the air in your closet -- I run into too many installs where airflow management is basically non-existent.
In my country, 1Gbps internet connection is 8$/month. 265$ is very expensive internet... Now i'm using a 300Mbps connection and I pay less than 5$.
what country lol
whoa. I currently have 1Gbps up/down. FOR $20 a month! PS: I live in Slovakia
lucky i pay $80 for 10 down and 3 up with a data cap at 400 gb😪
Cody switch your ip they ripping you new one
Same.
$130 a month in Canada. :(
@@thiccboicory9964 Usually they can't. Companies play monopolies in rural areas because there's usually only one or two, and the consumers have no choice but to go with them. The same thing happens with me. $50/month USD for 3 mbps down .5 mbps up
You almost make me want to work in IT, ALMOST.
Do you have those alarm fog machines? So when the alarm goes off it fills the house with fog so you can't see. Or do you have some strobes?
Nice idea! Can you get fog juice in green so it looks like gas? Then I can announce on a loud speaker 'Releasing Nerve Agent."
The alarm fog machines require a special type of fluid, so it wouldn't work too well if you do Dj fog fluid. The idea of it being green I like, the only problem is i've never seen coloured* fog fluid. You could have green strobe lights to make it seem green.
*English UK
"DJ fog fluid" is mineral oil BTW, so maybe they run on a VG mixture like "vaporizers/atomizers"?
MSDS says Distilled Water, Ethykene Glycol, Glycerin (mist), and Sodium Dehydroacetic. So closer to a VG/PG mix like vape juice but water based, bet that makes the heating elements fail like crazy!
I lost him at hi...
I don't think he says hi in this video.
And I lost you at hi...
Besides having your own server for Plex and backups, etc, what is the point of all this? How is it better than a standard home's network?
It isn't, he's simply made this to show off. I have a server room to host my websites and backups. There's no reason to have a ton of servers unless you're using your memory in milliseconds.
I think its ALOT overboard as far as servers. But it's a hobby and it's what he enjoys I guess, nothing is high end like cisco and seems he did it on a budget to get the job done. I do the same thing with cameras, I have a 1300 sqft house and HD and 4K cameras running POE. I even have two in the chicken coop lol
What a fucking Legend. This is goals
This dude needs to learn about _minimalism_ .
Why?
If you know anything about networking, and I doubt you do, "minimalism" would be the last thing you'd say.....
@@TheGeekPub Because he doesn't understand different people have different interests
@@TheGeekPub Because your life looks messy and chaotic.
@@Bruce.-Wayne that's not true at all.
That's garbage I have clear 1Gigabit internet + public IP address with latency 1 millisecond for 11.50$ per month. It's Ukraine.
This one of the first "home network tours" I've been on youtube that has really impressed me! Amazing work dude!
Hey, #notwrong #amazing at least... CONGRATS!
Very nice.... but I bet you go crazy when the power is out.
He has a ups
Infrastructure engineer here. This is madness. I run a mesh network (nethear orbi) and can stream uncompressed 4K hdr 5.1 Blu-ray from one side of the house to the other. This looks like the kind of mad setup one of my mechanical engineers would come up with. I run a Switch/Xbox/PS4/shield downstairs, gaming pc and synology nas upstairs. Blisteringly fast and completely out of sight.
What's the model of that pfsense box, I would love to get one. Esp if it has a atom c2750 or c2758

I built a FTP server with 8 TB of space and though i was Hot Chit..
As much as I liked the AirPort Extreme I switched over to UniFi gear.
Same here, about two months after I made this video.
@@TheGeekPub I was just about to ask you about the AirPort thing. hhah
I was VERY impressed with the sophistication of your network.
Has it become self-aware yet? :)
$265 for 500mbps? What the...?
"Alexa, when you're done uploading my every move to the NSA, turn up the heat."
If the NSA wants to pwn you, they don't need Alexa to do it.
trust me, the NSA is more interested in all the private VPN's that everyone advertises than your alexa lmao.
It's not about doing it right or wrong, it's about what works for you and your family. Would I do this or that differently, maybe, but that would be specific to my use case. Neat to see (what I would consider to be) an early adopter of home automation. The early adopters iron out a lot of the kinks and wrinkles.
500mb/s 265$ month 😲 i pay 27€ for 1gb/s month
Brother, why don't you love your house so much?
Gees Mike, I just want solitaire to work. Awesome video.
Sy Cook That calls for another virtual machine!
Nice! Anyone that says to use more expensive gear is either rich as all hell or don't have a mortgage and children. Well done mate!
Troy Graham $3000 used hatdware >>> $3000 new hardware
That's the case for everything. He said he works in ICT so he probably had a bit of this gear laying around. I have 3 x 48 Port Layer 2 switches laying around right now. I'd only use them at home if I had no choice though.
Troy Graham, I would be glad to use them by choice! Why would you not use them by choice anyway?
999k views😄 when I am watching this video lol
what is the software you're using for overall monitoring of network bandwidth, server health, etc...?
Eric Mayo observium
Eric Mayo, good question, and TheGeekPub, thanks for sharing that. I'm looking at this on a separate tab, there is a free version available for home geeks like me. Cool!
The only bummer about Observium is it doesnt support Netflow. And Solarwinds is not feasible for home use.
What are you running Observium on? I use Ubuntu for mine. I'm curious if there is something better.
John Huthmaker Hi there John, I haven't tested it just yet, I was looking at their website to find out more about it. I have a spare PC I can repurpose just for this kind of interesting project. Haven't decided on the flavor of Linux I'm gonna use, although I'm partial to Mint and Ubuntu. Can't say I like CentOS much. I'm gonna look into it this week, time permitting. Ciao!
I run it on an Ubuntu VM.
$265/month for 500Mbits
damn in Europe I pay €40/month for gigabit...and I consider it theft already
Yeah in the US there are only 6 internet providers and they have a monopoly on the entire country. They also have non-compete agreements between to prevent price wars. They also owns all the lines where as in Europe it is illegal for company to own the lines. Your lines are consider a public utility and are part of the commons. We are getting rape and rob with slow and over priced internet in the US.
Any fear in someone messing with your modem outside your home? It looked like the Ethernet cable was exposed outside the enclosure.
Oh and would love a vid about your software setup for ESXI. I hardly know anything about that topic.
BB not really. They'd still have to get through my firewall.
BB: If you're running linux VM's check out proxmox instead of ESXi.
toysareforboys why
I'm no expert on how it works, but it shares all the resources much better than ESXi when running a bunch of linux VM's. Way way less picky on drivers/hardware as well. I'm using it for opnSense (dual wan router), Windows XP (for mail server), CentOS for web server. Much better performance than running ESXi on the exactly same system setup.
BB i work for a cable company and our ONTs go indoors. They would not survive the Canadian winters in an outdoor enclosure.
I can confirm axis are awesome. We have them at work, about 80 cameras across 10 sites.
I put in some D-Links about two years ago. Over those two years almost every single D-Link has failed and been replaced by an AXIS. The telltale sign of the D-Links demise is they will start locking up and have to have the power reset to them. This will go on for a month or two and then they just won't power on anymore.
TheGeekPub at our head office we have a 4k PTZ, can't remember the exact model, we got it a year ago and was the best they had at the time!
agree we have axis PTZ at work (data centre) so security is the game.
can confirm, got a few at work as well
Things I like, managed switches/vlaning your cameras plus PoE. UPS to prevent damage to equipment. A wired LAN.
Things I hate, grossly overbuilt for a home network. Disjointed wiring closet. Literally just too much tech, I like technology as much as the next guy but there just seems to be piles and piles of IoT to fill every task that has an artificial demand.
You do you none the less
Cheers
You missed the whole point. My day job is technology. My home is my lab.
People who work in networking need a lab at home to play around with
@@emmettonline Да он просто техногик, помешан на компах и сетях, имет кучу бабок а вкладывает бездумно. В чём идея то побольше серверов и проводов?
@@TheGeekPub I'm currently in the process of building a home network. have some cisco switches, getting a security system, have a netapp controller and shelves and a couple dell servers
WTF IS THE CABLE MANAGEMENT
Right off the bat, 2 streets away with AT&T. I would befriend a person on the street and ask to put up a Ubiquiti dish to beam that connection over to your house. Then keep a small package 15/15 servicing your house if the remote connection ever fails.
I'd love to. But I don't know anyone over there.
@@TheGeekPub Well in that case, go knocking on some doors and ask if'd they'd like free internet, all they have to do is let you setup your tower. Then throw in a Ubiquity Router and dedicate 70Mbps to them, add a small UPS, and call it a day. You could even use a VPN for transmitting over the air.
However you might want to register a non-profit organization, then you're not responsible if they go pirating movies or whatnot.
I know this sounds like a bit of work, but when has being a tech guy ever actually been easy? XD
Awesome infrastrucrure you have in there! One question though: wouldn't it make more sense to use access points such as the ones from Ubiquiti? They are cheaper than Apple, have great performance and can be powered via POE reduncing the cable mess around the sockets.
Could only management, FAIL, no thanks guy
Amazon Drive currently offers a max of 1 TB. Is 1 TB enough for 11 cameras? Or do you have a grandfathered plan or a short retention policy?
We have in Russia in Moscow 1Gb/s is $23
$23, eh?? Maybe here in the U.S. we need to rethink the whole _communism_ thing!?! OH! WAIT!!... Before we finalize the deal: How much are the hookers?
Wow. Is that really how Verizon sets up their modems? In an enclosed box with no air flow. The cable modem that our provider setup at my place of work failed after a year due to a design defect where the air vents were blocked.
Neat home though! I plan on constructing a dedicated network/server room once we redo our basement. Check out the Reolink cameras. I've setup a few of those in my home, and they're terrific. No third-party software bullshit, great image quality, and they're not priced too high.
Thats not a modem. Its an optical network terminator. It converts from Fiber to Twisted Pair Ethernet, but doesnt do any sort of routing. They dont really create any heat.
How people do their 'stuff' is their own business, Google's AI placed a link and you asked .. I'd add a NG/LP generator if you haven't already. In South Korea 1 Gbps cost $19! I'll probably drop Fontier once we have Google Fibre.
_Cisco .. I own a data center. Chinese love to clone. I love security._
Good luck in your home hobby! 😆
South Korea's land mass is also 38,691 mi². Which is the same size as 1 US state. Indiana. I'd imagine servicing all of Korea is pretty easily done considering S. Korea's population is 50.62 million. About 1/4th the population of the USA. TL:DL - It's easier to provide gigabit for cheap when you live in a country the size of Indiana.
funny... an ASUS all in one would do all of this and more.
Riiiiigghhtt....
All those security features and you use Alexa...bye bye security.
Are you like 12? Grow up.
verios44 again false.
TheGeekPub Then please enlighten me. How do you keep home assistants like Alexa from listening to every spoken word and transmitting it to Amazon to be used for the purposes of selling information?
No sir. Those with extraordinary claims bear the burden of proof. You prove to me its doing that. (Hint. It's not. Hint. Its been hacked and the code decompiled and literally no one has found any evidence of your claims.) And before you spew some more hogwash, tell me exactly why you fear the Alexa but you don't fear the cellphone/microphone in your pocket which not only sits on your home network but literally goes everywhere you go which has *actually been proven* that several models were compromised and implanted with NSA firmware.
TheGeekPub, I don't know why you're giving this imbecile the time of day. He's obviously not put even one of his brain cells to work thinking about this.
I'm going to school for a bachelor in computer science and I have to say your system has everything I'm learning about. Hubs to switches, servers, etc.... Pretty cool. It will be cool to build that one day for my future home.
david from the 8-bit guys network set-up is more tidy however your network is more complex!!
HAHA, I just watched that video too. I'd say 8-bit guys network is total craptastic. And tidy isn't a word I would use to describe that mess of cables he has everywhere. He wasn't even smart enough to use a patch panel. Geek guy's setup is superior and quite a bit more elegant.
We got a router
Done!
This is like a PC gaming enthusiast putting RGB lighting on everything....its just for shits and giggles.
LOL. If you say so.
Can you show how did you pull cables behind drywalls? I have miles of TP patch sitting and waiting to be pulled. I just never understood how the hell I gonna do it without demolishing the whole house. Even with all those Magnepull BS and fishtapes it just doesn't seem realistic. I just always trying to imagine some kind of remotely controlled spider robot doing it for me inside walls and ceilings, sounds easy when it's not.
Dude, Guest VLAN 1003 on the Airport's - Thank you! Just set up and configured it on my network and it works great!
Beautiful server system and cable tv system, 1U and NAS look geeks. But when I saw the wireless ... apple airport OMG OMG OMG.
I should say beside wireless everything look so much geek.
I replaced all of my wireless with Ubiquiti about a month after this video.
@@TheGeekPub good to know that, i love unifi too
Nice to finally see a new video from TheGeekPub
Sadly, I can't be a troll and tell you "how wrong you did it" since I know next to nothing about half of the stuff you showed us :D
But it all looks really cool.
Really enjoyed your tour, the first of your videos I've found. I myself work in IT in the UK. Very interested in the network monitoring software you're running. Would you share the details? Many thanks.
guessing your a network engineer you really know your stuff. Its overkill for a home network but hey its your money LOL
True that. I prefer to learn more about networking from professional engineers than some slackers like Linus who does random tech reviews everyday. And being an I.T guy, I find it interesting to be learning more in my career so that I can apply them at home too and vice versa!
What Part of DFW are you from? We also have frontier and it's by far the worst customer service I have ever had from ISP.
Dang, that's a big ass house. Awesome build you have there!
Just curious how did you get into video editing? Thanks
LOL! Can you say Skynet? I'm way too paranoid to have AI in my home. Great presentation nonetheless.
I don't understand a single thing you said in this video :/
its 2017. you should and since you don't, enjoy your terribly low income level.
interesting joke.
I understood 10 words and was very impressed with myself!

I wish I could come by for a summarized tour.
Your not living in upstate New York by any chance are you??
@@craig853 and what are you? An English teacher? Nothing but a judgmental piece of shit.
you looking for trouble Cyber bully?
Chicken shit punk hiding behind a computer screen.
Are all I.T. guys this paranoid about their security?
I'm not, which makes me concerned I'm wrong, but never been hacked
It's not about paranoia, it's more like precautions.....if you know something can happen, why not take measures to prevent it the 1st place?....I have my own router facing the internet and I have to secure it well enough knowing many bad guys outhere are trying to sniff it....that's prevention....there is no such thing as too much security
After you get hacked, you just think someone is watching you and your precious code. Yes, we do.
This guy seems like he's paranoid as hell why doesn't he just go move into Fort Knox or nobody can get to him of all things he's using Siri and Alexa is security systems just because he has firewalls doesn't mean he can't be hacked all his s*** be stolen he must be the stupidest IT Tech on the planet Earth
I think it is a hobby. Its fun to have big switchs and nas / harddrives but you have to find some utility to it :)
Murray... are you the brother of the 8-bit-guy?
Comcast in my area offers 250Mbps for $69.99, 1gbps cost $100.99
Matthew M. I have comcast and it's such a scam. I am now paying $250 per month for 30 up and 12 down plus tv and phone. for tv they are making it pay to watch your favorite TV shows for additional $40 a month. BS
I pay $75 for 150 down and 20 up with comcast
I'm patiently waiting for AT&T fiber in my area 80 bucks for 1000 up/ 1000down
All your gears are solid. Hopefully when the time comes you upgrade your hotspots. You may want to consider switching to Ubiquiti very stable. A bit tricky at first once set up they are stable as they can be.
SWEET INSTALL!!!!
My mom has Verizon Fios 500/500 for $40 in nyc. It’s absolutely ridiculous to see how expensive internet is in other states.
Why the servers mounted vertically? I mean, apart from the obvious space saving reasons? Doesn't that screw with the server's thermals? >.
I think you answered your own question. Doesn't look like space in that closet for horizontal rack mounting.
To save space. It does not effect thermals.
have you considered reversing the airflow? suck in cool air from the bottom and blow out on top where the HDD's are located? i'm looking into a vertical mounting option myself. Nice setup thoug ;)
Dog has an article on his site about that. He did reverse them.
"Firewall imported from CHINA". So no country except China can infiltrate your network. 😂 Kidding of course. I have a very similar flow in my house including the gaming aspect. However, you are about 100X more advanced than me with networking. Awesome video and great information! Thank you :)
My inet cost 76$ for 5 Gbits up/down fiber 😁
You are one lucky dog!
Tntdruid You have a 10 gigabit infrastructure at home? Highly doubt that.
Max i will when i upgrade my gear
Tntdruid Ah okay
William Hutchinson no Denmark
You really might be someone big admin....or a secretary of bill gates....or an advertisement guy.....but really i didn't understood it the servers connections....and set ups.....!!!!.
How do you afford this
Jim Hetrick women are expensive. I guess he chose the toys instead
The guy is building a pool outside..pretty sure he can afford it.
Ebay has incredible, unbelievable deals, in relation to what the equipment cost a year before when some fool (or some company under contract or long term lease agreement to bend over and take 10" of un-lubed man meat by buying a $50,000 server every year or every other year. Yes, that supports SOME jobs here in America, but in reality, it supports manufacturing in China more than anything here. Hell, I bought a particular server, that 4 years previous to my purchasing it on eBay, went retail north of $475,000 in 2010. I paid $1400.....in 2014. Took a truck and trailer (to quell confusion I mean a personal one driven everyday to work and back, parked in your garage, not an 18-wheeler) to get it. Several personal, day-to-day, face-to-face friends of mine- I host their commercial retail websites on the thing. One produces worldwide orders daily. I mean literally an item is ordered every day from every continent in the world (except antarctica, though the item his company is known for, hell it's in the title of the company, are on the intended market item/device which ARE presently in Antarctica). His business is tremendously succesful, and not because I do a great job with hosting/writing some of the site/managing it, but rather because he busted his ass from 14 years ago, refused to cut the smallest corner, no matter who WASN'T looking, no matter how much more the RIGHT metal alloy was for the job, regardless of how much he could save by downgrading alloys to something that would perform 90% as well. Some people are ok with a 50% price cut to lose 10% durability. Some are not. But by only having a top of the line-line for the longest, the public knew that his 'inferior' line, aka, 'economical' line came out and he promised a performance of xxxx/xxxxxx:xxx, people knew without a shadow of a doubt that his product would do it. He was recently bought out by an international conglomerate for God knows how much. Tens and tens or dozens and dozens of millions of dollars. He said he'd never been in the position to not know what it was like to not have to worry about money ever again and that it was almost uncomfortable. Anyways, his hard work from his garage led to lifetime financial security and makes me a nice little profit as well, as the conglomerate decided to keep his business just as is, but with their purchasing power on procurement of the raw materials, they will see an astronomical return on their investment because this guy's company's real value is the name. Work hard, don't compromise, and you will never wonder or need to ask how someone afforded anything. I mean that in a positive way, not a smart ass way, I swear.
When you work for a company in IT, you sometimes get some nice goodies. I have a couple of servers and very expensive equipment I got from work that I’m allowed to keep.
Not Herrk you stole😂
You would laugh at my attempt at a networking “closet” and home automation. But still, works for me. The main downside about my home automation is that it uses Alexa routines and ITTT, so it’s 100% dependent on a working internet. That’s not so great. But it’s all I can do with the budget I’ve got right now.
Anyhow, thanks for sharing your setup with us! It will definitely come in handy later on when I eventually design a home setup that is more robust.
You must be doing financially well congratz you won life! :D
Cmon guys, that's a decent home network he got....wait till you guys see my 24u rack with 19 cisco switches, routers, firewalls .....lol....I thought it was overkill until I start studying for my CCIE....though I have a VMware environment to simulate any topology I want, but having physical devices is imperative......
Any way to provide instructions on how to wire a verizon fios ONT with Cat 6A? Have 1 gig-internet, hd 4k tv's with ultimate package, two pc's and two phone lines. My router is a xwr-3150epic (LUXUL) with a Power Access device (wired in ceiling of hallway to cover main and upstairs levels well. Ran direct Cat 6a ethernet and coaxial cable from all devices to the ONT.....Any comment would be helpful.
We live in Dallas as well and get AT&T Fiber. We get home phone and 1 gigabit internet for $100. We'd still have U-verse if it weren't for the fact that we found out AT&T changed their policy in 2016 stating that gigabit users no longer have to worry about a data cap if they want to drop their TV service. Technically, we could save another $35 just by dropping our phone service. But, we like having the redundancy in place in case we have an emergency (also, some of our utility services utilize our phone number as part of the location based services they provide).
Well Extremely Good Routers (DSL, Wifi and Internet In/Out per Ethernet in High Speeds) is the Fritz!Box by AVM but i dont know if its even avalible in the US because its an German brand.
That thing well... Its just the best and the most Popular
complaining about the prices of 150mbps in USA. LOL. I pay 160 bucks per month for optus fetch and 5/1 mpbps ADSL2 in australia. I also can't get NBN for whatever reason so yeah, happy days.
from an egineers view this is really cool, congratulations, I mean you probably spend all your time doing this. I spent already a couple of hours to make ma Guest WLAN work on a VLAN through tmy house with Unifi AP. With my simple set up of a Fritzbox, some Unifi AP, Netgear managed switches, domoticz home service, Hue etc I need to document it as I keep forget all the stuff if it works...Have you ever thouhg what happens to this once you are leaving this world into a better one :-) ...thi sis what prevents me to escalate...
I use at my house AT&T home network and our router can by it self run a home and guest network as well as two phone lines. I have been learning much about networking recently as I have been doing different things in my house. I have learned many new things. One thing I was surprised to learn id you could attach a Hard Drive and use it on the internet, and that is had a like menu thing you could access on a web browser. I think I sound crazy because most people who watch this channel probably know that.
Jesus Christ, there goes my nofap streak.
nice mate!!! I have two internet services, 1 cupper and fiber, and a Cisco 26 Ports gigabit, but my network is horrible! LOL
Thank you I don’t know much about any of this ,but I’m not far off .I need to learn more about patch panels. I bought a netgear cable modem and a netgear Nighthawk router( which I absolutely love)last September when I was with Comcast and then a month later changed ISP to Verizon and apparently the modem is not compatible but the Nighthawk is I also have TP-DLINK switch and now I have a better idea on how to wire it all up correctly so I’m almost there I will be watching your videos on patch panel and then your videos on setting up my camera network correctly so thanks again
nicee
Seems a little over the top for home and a touch messy. I have a similar set up, but more akin to what 8-bit guy has done, though I purpose built a separate building at the bottom of my garden running cabling to the house. Just waiting on Gigabit to hit my street and completing my solar panel power project, then I'll be happy. But nice work.
$265 for 500 Mb/s? Holy cow, that's expensive! Here in Japan, I pay $60 for 1 Gb/s fiber service! Why is internet so expensive back in the states?
Ok wow 265$ USD for only 500 mb/s!!!!???? I pay 70$ CAD for 1 gbit/s download AND upload here in Quebec with Bell...
Gee do you have a copy of the whole internet in your server room LOL. Pretty interesting setup...I assume that took you a couple days to setup HAHA!!!
You mentioned your surveillance cameras have great video and never fail and they're not cheap...yep you get what you pay for that's for sure. I'd rather pay more up front and get cameras that actually work than spend a lot less and forever be having to buy replacement cameras when they fail.
Another great video. Thanks.
I pay $270 for my home internet and that's only for 25Mbits down and 8Mbits up. Embrace your blessings.
Question, do you leave your servers/network switches on 24/7? Please, do not take me wrong on this 2nd question, what is your monthly electric bill? Last question, do you use this network infrastructure for business reason?
In italy (only few city that have 300 or 1gbit connection) the cost is around 20 (at first) to 40/50 euro per month. i live in near a big city and i have 100 mbps (80 'cause the fttc) for around 45€/month
wut some hackers shpuldnt consentrate no nsa they should consentrate on your f*** fortress.
WERRY WELL DONE
verizon fios > Att Fiber, Verizon cost more cause it actually work all the time unlike Att, i moved to NC from jersey where i had Fios and i got Att fiber and its horrid. its down 40% of the time or i get 50-90 mbps less than i should have at any time
