I didn't spot this thread before but I'm having some networking difficulties and I haven't had many responses so far. Seems like this is where the people who might know how to help hang out. Problem description in HoTS: http://forums.somethingawful.com/showthread.php?threadid=3628481 Essentially I have a bunch of devices all with the same hardcoded IP address, and I'm trying to connect to them simultaneously using a separate network interface for each (although if I could do it with fewer that's maybe fine too). Running on Linux. I know there's quite a lot there and possibly I'm going about this completely the wrong way but I'm somewhat clueless and would appreciate any help I can get.

We have a shared fibre connection (symmetric 500Mbps) with our upstairs neighbours. An ethernet line runs from their router to our apartment. On this I currently have a Netgear R6260 set up with its own LAN that provides WiFi and wired connections to all our stuff. However we have thick walls, the router is in an inconvenient spot, and the WiFi sucks. I was thinking of putting a different router on the line from upstairs, then running cable to the R6260 and probably another similar WiFi thing as access points in other places in the apartment. If the new router could run Wireguard and an ad blocker as well as doing routing that would be great. Is my plan reasonable? Any hardware/software that you can recommend for the task? Is this a job for the unused RPi4 I've had lying around forever, cheapo second hand PC, dedicated router of some sort?
