• Leaseweb vs other providers

  Unfortunately, if you install a GUI, you will have to pipe it through a webserver. Something like guacamole. For a headless and people not well versed in command line, swizzin is normally the go to. You install Debian, then access the command line, and then run the swizzin script to set it up. It adds a GUI for everything. Source: 11 months ago

• Seedbox Recommendation - €70, 64Tb+ Storage/ Plex

  There is currently a Hetzner auction dedi with 4x16TB drives for €70. AFAIK, Hetzner would be the cheapest storage option, so even though it's not 70TB, at that price point you're pretty much stuck. You can rent one and install Saltbox or Swizzin yourself, it's pretty easy. Source: 12 months ago

• What it looks like to host a completely automated *arr Suite

  PS: btw swizzin is really cool and easy to use to install and manage seedbox. Source: about 1 year ago

• Is there a good guide or prebuilt setup to install media server like Jellyfine, Sabnzbd, Qbittorrent ect on a ProxMox server?

  There are lots of scripts that will install the software for you automatically. Swizzin is pretty popular, and I use it when I need something spun up quickly. Just create an LXC with debian or ubuntu and swizzin will do the rest. Source: about 1 year ago

• Reccomendation People dont seem to notice the megathread, so i post this here too, mainly just out of curiosity.

  Then you can fullfill your requirements. See swizzin.ltd site. Source: about 1 year ago

• How to bypass public IP and NAT

  Firmware's like Asuswrt-Merlin or OpenWRT can support dynamic-dns, or you can do like I do and run something like OPNsense in an x86 VM with a NIC passed through, or buy an inexpensive firewall appliance (up to 500mbps/1gbps/10gbps). Source: 6 months ago

• Stop ISP from getting into my Router

  The easiest solution is to buy your own router, set it up, disable the router functionality on the Fritzbox 7590 and plug your router into it. It'll be cheaper and easier than a Cisco Firewall, but if you want to go the dedicated firewall route then I would recommenced OPNsense. Source: 6 months ago

• OpenBSD Innovations

  BSDs may not have a significant presence on desktops, but they're well known in the networking world for their reliability. They also were the foundation used to build OSes for specific applications. OpnSense and XigmaNAS, for example, are two excellent FreeBSD based applications aimed at firewalling/security and NAS/services. https://opnsense.org/ https://xigmanas.com/xnaswp/. - Source: Hacker News / 11 months ago

• Switches That You Actually Own

  For switches? OpenWrt supports a few models toward the lower end, and SONiC support a bunch at the higher-end datacenter ToR market, but none of these options are SME production-ready like Linux servers or OPNsense firewalls. Source: 12 months ago

• Having to pay postage to ship back a DoA product sucks from a customer perspective

  That’s a stupid policy, and it looks like one of my UDMs is defective. I’m an idiot for not just buying good quality open boxes and putting https://opnsense.org/ on them. 🤦🏻‍♂️. Source: almost 1 year ago
