My fellow redditors,
I must admit I'm on the dangerous side of dunning Kruger so....
I'm wanting to go to scratch.
Location: Australia (so please don't tell me to go to best buy, I know I'm getting ripped off)
Aus runs it's end of financial year NOW so the sales are on. I've been eying off a ROG Wifi7 routher (Rapture GT-BE98) with 2x 10gbe HOWEVER...
I want to do the following:
- VLan for my IOT in the house that need exposure to internet (Alexa etc)
- Home assistant to be as self hosted as possible for latency issues
- Access to NAS remotely (currently asustor, but may go to Qnap in Future).
Also on cards:
- 10gbe between workstation and NAS as I wrangle giga/terabytes of data for PhD work.... Is there any downside to going JUST copper vs sexy fibre?
- Replacing my eufy wireless security with a POE.. reolink or hkvision?
Edit: have also some other spare routers including a glnet beryl that can run wwrt
Questions:
- will the Asus Rapture GT-BE98 be suitable for vLAN
- Will I need managed switches, and if so what will need me NOT to do a PhD to get it running SAFELY without exposing everything to the Wild?
Thanks all.
