  1. Noticed the same thing! Reported, so that maybe YT can see it and give it back to LMG. But that is SLOW!!!
  2. It happened again with overclocking 10 years old computer video.
  3. Thanks, will keep this in mind.
  4. Hi! Thank you for help! This made me reconsider my last plan and this idea actually is more complicated than actually required. I made decision to simplify architecture completely by removing Wired router completely. I will use Wireless router as main router, maybe install ddwrt if available for my model, will see. And use two simple network switches. Two ports will be used to get a cable to each required room, and connect a network switch on each of them. Each will serve a TV, PC and potential Raspberry pi projects in future. Two finished raspberry pi projects will be connected directry to rest of two wireless router ports. That will also eliminate future cable mess, that was another reason when I started to plan it in real life. Thank you a lot, needed another smart person to question my ideas.
  5. Thank you for reply! You confirmed what I thought about DHCP server. Regarding router I already mentioned one router Ubiquiti EdgeRouter 10x. I think I like it. And for USD 100 it is quite nice.
  6. Hi! I'm starting to move to a new apartment and I need a new network set up. Currently I have there a 1Gbit internet and a cheap TP-Link ac WiFi router. Previously I had ASUS RT-AX88U hoping it will tick all my checkboxes and it kinda did, but it died after 2 months use with WiFi issues and I'm sending it back for refund. So my budget will be around 300-350 EUR/USD to replace it with different solution, but would love to get below that. My requirements: * I need 8x1Gbps LAN ports (4 of them can actually be slower) I am Raspberry Pi addict and I need 4 ports for them, 2 for TV and 2 for PC * I need a reasonable ac WiFi - 3 people can watch Netflix and Floatplane at 1080p. Current one is fine for now and I believe it can work in AP mode, but I have no experience with this and actually I have multiple questions regarding it. * I need port forwarding, possibility to define static IP for wired and wireless clients. * Can be bought on Amazon.de or locally in Latvia. My initial plan was to buy another AX or maybe AC WiFi router with 8 LAN ports, but looks like most of them have similar issues. I read too many reports regarding 2.4GHz or 5GHz issues on high end routers after few days to few months, no matter what brand. I will not buy ASUS anymore after what I have gone through to get real support from them directly. Thanks at least to Amazon for listening and helping. My current plan is to split my network device roles - WiFi AP and wired router. I have newer done this before so I have come questions. * An 8 port (or more) wired router. It is hard to find anything now because now everyone calls wireless router just routers. * I have some wireless devices that need static IP and port forwarding (3D printer, IP camera and so on). I believe it should be possible to configure them in wired router, when devices are connected to WiFi AP? I'm just asking before throwing out money. I already made a mistake with ASUS. Can anyone confirm that I should be able to assign static IP addresses to WiFi devices in Wired router? And what wired only router can you recommend? No ASUS please! While writing this post I came across Ubiquiti EdgeRouter 10x. UI demo page looks quite complicated compared to ddwrt or any consumer WiFi router UI. Thanks!
  7. disconnect HDD, CD drive, is anything in USB ports? If does not help, reset bios.
