Well, this was a surprise. Decided to run a simple LAN ping test between two of my access points, and the results were not what I expected.

Contender 1: The "mighty" Ubiquiti UniFi AC Lite
Contender 2: The tiny MikroTik mAP Lite

The winner? By a long shot, the MikroTik! It showed much better stability and lower latency.

The Stats:

- MikroTik: Avg 8.2ms / Jitter 10ms

- Ubiquiti: Avg 15.4ms / Jitter 32.1ms

Goes to show that size isn't everything in the world of networking.

@stefano

I don't own a device from MikroTik yet, but followed reports by tech people who swear by the price / performance / quality ratio of this devices.

My next Wi-Fi router will most definitely be MikroTik. Same with my next managed switch that will have 2.5 Gbit

Can’t connect to public WiFi via Linux

I am using Fedora 42, and I am unable to access the captive portal of inOui TGV. I can connect to the WiFi with no problems, but I can’t get access to the Internet.

I have tried everything:

  1. Connecting to 192.168.1.1, to http://neverssl.com, to http://wifi.sncf via browser
  2. Running sudo dhclient -r and rebooting the device
  3. Running systemctl restart NetworkManager
  4. Also other stuff I tried in the past with other public WiFis. I am sure there is something wrong with my specific device configuration, it’s not this network.

Nothing works 😩

Can somebody who understands this stuff help me?

I keep seeing this annoying issue, ERR_NETWORK_CHANGED every time I open a new page. Rebooting and resetting the browser haven't helped, and searching online hasn't given me any answers.

What's going on with @Vivaldi? Like I said, today's been full of endless problems for me...

Any #network engineers out there looking for a job? I'm looking for one or two good engineers to help me build a global network to make our company #selfhosted. Currently have PoPs in 7 countries with plans to expand.

Need to know #bgp, #mpls, #ospf and #vxlan. #linux and #automation skills are useful too.

The position is #fullyremote with occasional travel for hardware installs and maintenance.

My wifey approved #homelab had to move...

The reason is easy - you can probably already guess that there might be some thermal problems raising on the left picture. It resulted into permanently spinning & annoying fans. Also the temperatures went a way too high. So, easy solution - everything moved into a metal shoe rack under my working desk. From ~80°C CPU temperature it dropped to ~65°C without spinning fans.

Load Balancing in #Proxmox Clusters? #ProxLB just got released in version 1.1.2. Let's make the switch to #opensource together!

Now, focusing on power management for nodes (like DPM) & auto node security patching :)

From an idea to a working beta version in just a few hours. #IPv6 tunnel service with #Wireguard and #OpenVPN support. GRE & SIT follows, OpenVPN PKI backend will be switched to Hashicorp Vault.

Still several things to do… #network#IPv4#GRE#SIT#Tunnel #homelab #net #services @BoxyBSD
