4·1 year agoBridge mode on the ISP router is what you want. Then it just passes through the internet connection to the internal router on the edge of your network. It’s what I do with Comcast.
Same for me.
-It works well
-my dad (who has dementia) can use it
-It runs even when the net goes down (means my dad is happy)
-Can Transcode for our TV’s with premiere (would rather not have to pay for that)Have been thinking about Jellyfin…as I like the FOSS angle…and seems like it is gaining a lot of traction in the selfhost community. I host Emby Server on my Unraid server and our nVidia Shields play content great using the Emby app. Going to be investigating Jellyfin when I start to move the rest of my serivces off of Unraid.
In Progress, needs tweaking:
Making sure our AC only turns on when it can efficiently cool the house. Useful when we dip into the 50’s for lows while it’s 70’s+ during the day. Basically switch the thermostat to heat only to avoid the AC coming on.In the planning stage:
Presence sensing in our bathroom to turn the light on for my dad in the middle of the night. Can’t use PIR motion detection as my dad moves very slow these days and actually defeats the PIR sensor in our hallway night light. I’m thinking mmWave is the way to go. Might try presence sensing when someone is on the toilet, turn the fan on, again, because sometimes he forgets.Just getting started really with automations right now.

I used Techno Tim’s guide on how to do essentially the same thing with different tools: Cloudflare, Let’s Encrypt, Traefik, and PiHole (for my DNS)

I’ve been playing on the Gamepass version (which was gifted to me by a friend). It’s not spectacular performance on my 8th gen i7 and 6700K…but it’s playable. I’m enjoying myself. I’m averaging around 25fps in game. Only setting I really modified is the Volumetric setting…set that to low. Playing at 1440p.
