   Within the next few hours/days, I'm almost certain one of my routers is going to brick. It's done this before. I can/will physically open it up to fix it, but it will take NAS offline for a few hours. This is as much notice as I'm able to provide. Prepare yourselves for the impending grass-touching.

     Gday

     This is why its good to have seperate devices

     Modem > Router/Firewall > Switch > AP

     China was artifcally proped up as the manfactoring gaint via

     Stolen designs/info/knowledge/tech from USA and EU via Jews passed onto Russia , passed onto CHINA

     and JEWS working with the ((( UN))) to state demand 45% Of manufacturing from WHITE nations be transferred to China

     Early USA after the New world reset,
     USA used to be too productive and export more then it imported , thus this was another part to destroy white nations along with China having $2-5 min wage

     @IceCubeSoup @charliebrownau I've used both of those actually and they are interesting little routers. Way too much China up in the stock OS for me but they both have a very easy to flash version of OpenWRT available for them. Once you do that it's pretty shocking the features they support.

     @GVRon @CattleBaron @charliebrownau The router that is about to die is a Ubiquiti UDM Pro. They don't label their hardware iterations because Ubiquiti are shitters, but the one I have is the older one that has a internal USB. It happened like 6mo ago that the management interface died, then SSH, then routing failures started. Known defect, the USB drive they use inside (yes, lol, USB) dies to wrote fatigue or bus errors and requires wipe, flash, restore. Gotta open it and replace.

     @eriner @GVRon @CattleBaron

     So many Ubiquiti fanboys in the Linux/FOSS community

     I would replace it with

     Modem > Router > AP > Switch

     OpenWRT portable routers
     or
     pfsense/opensense 2-4 port chinese soc metal box's
     or
     an DIY pfsense box

     Heck grab a 2-4 port nic + optiplex sff and connect it straight to a ADSL/Fibre/Coax modem

     I found all these 'devices' that are AIO are always underpowered, overheat and never have the strength to last
     and too much weak plastic

     Good luck sorting it out

     Would you be interested in the idea of replacing the Ubiquiti with something (hopefully) less problematic? Whatever happened to the idea of setting up some sort of fundraiser for NAS?@CattleBaron @charliebrownau

     Sorry, I think we had a little miscommunication. NAS in my post meant NoAgendaSocial. Obviously the funds should come from NAS users.

     @charliebrownau @GVRon @CattleBaron I used to run of pfsense, ddwrt before that. But now I run a mix of Ubiquiti's Unifi and Edge line. Their ERX got me hooked, value was immense and it beat learning the Cisco IOS. Nowadays I stick with Ubiquiti because PoE, Cameras, and wifi gear.
