Having a 1 Gbit Internet Connection at my home,

I need some suggestions what to do with it.

  • First my Server is an HP ProLiant DL
    • 2    x Intel Xeon E5530 @ 2.4 GHz         (Hyperthreading)
    • 2    x 16 GB DDR3 registered ECC RAM
    • 25  x 2,5'' Hot Swap Channels               (1 used)
    • 1    x 240 GB Q300 Toshiba SSD            (as boot and main)
    • 2    x 750 Watt HP redundant PSU
    • 2    x 1Gbit Uplink                                  (1 used other one is broken)
    • Running Debian
  • 4 U Case for another Server is layin arround
  • I'm not allowed to use it for any business purpose
  • No Suggestions with File Sharing or other illegal stuff
  • No Power Bill
  • No 24/7 too much noise
  • 1 IPv4 Address (Quota)
  • 18,446,744,073,709,551,615 IPv6 Addresses (no Quota)

Some things I have done in the past:

  • Steam In-Home-Streaming from the go (over Internet)
  • Gitlab         (home git)
  • Nextcloud (home cloud)
  • VPN          (OpenVPN)
  • Virtualization stuff
  • Mining...

Do you have a thing want to be tested or a suggestion what to do with it, post it down here.

Upload all your data to a cloud or two. Or three. Upload all the data! Then you'll know you're safe if anything happens to your data locally. 

 

P.S: One thing to not do... Please don't run a denial of service attack on anyone. That's not cool. Unless they're a crime syndicate, then go crazy!

Yes, it's 2871 as in the year 2871. I traveled all this way, back in time, just to help you. And you thought your mama lied when she said you were special. -_-

Hmm. I think you're right, but if it came to it our community here could destroy their Hackers!

Thats so boring, Uploading everything to my cloud is also not possible, too much data.

And the Cloud is no Backup only a Mirror

Boring, yet you have too much? This sounds like a challenge! How much is too much?

Well, you could get 50 TB on Amazon Cloud for $60/yr. That would be very interesting, I wonder if they would ban you?

Maybe start a Youtube/Twitch channel of sorts? Extra income is always nice, especially if you enjoy what you do. 

When i have enough time, i can do this. But at the moment i have not enough.

If you've no ideas then do nothing I guess. I'm also on unlimited gigabit Internet (albeit a home residential line) and don't do much with it. Landline internet just happens to be really cheap in my country. 

Wisj I had Gigabit internet... I would be all over that, saturate 5 clients at once :)

 

OK, wouldn't be able to do it all day, but not worrying about the bandwidth would be great, instead I have lousy 70Mbit/19Mbit.... Ok it's not lousy, but it feels like it is when I and others in the house have stuff to do and have to share that 70Mbit :(

Please quote my post, or put @paddy-stone if you want me to respond to you.
