pining for that era as consumer routers now basically don’t have a web interface and the app they want you to use gargles balls and requires an account. maybe next year I’ll try to get a prosumer setup going

yo what the gently caress, i just found out my condo is wired for ethernet. been living here over a year and finally peaked behind one of the phone jacks to see its just wired with two of the twisted pairs from some cat5e. time to convince my wife to let me put a router in the linen closet

Raluek posted:just make sure it's run somewhat sensibly (i.e. all the phone jacks going to some central location, probably punched onto a 66 block). phones can be daisy chained, and sometimes they'll wire it that way but just use 5e for convenience they all meet in the aforementioned linen closet behind a wall plate, it’s where the coax cable comes in and presumably the pots when that was around. inside the closet wall the cables all have the outer insulation cut back maybe 4-6 inches. good idea on doing a continuity check though, might save me some troubleshooting later
