Networking at home

I have a lot of computers running at home, all connected to the same plug trough a distributor and I wanted to measure the amount of electricity they consume. I could use a $250 manageable PDU for this purpose, but I found it better to buy a $10  Tuya compatible 16A Smart Plug  and flash it with the  Tasmota  Firmware. In this article I describe, how to do it.

Multigigabit is a technology for wired LAN connections where the speed exceeds 1 Gbps. In the recent times a lot of new equipment was announced, supporting this technology, this article tries to summarize what is available today and on what price.

In this post we will measure the performance on the PPPoE multilink over 2 gigabit connection.

In this post we will measure the performance of balance-rr bonding over 2 gigabit ethernet connections.

I had a dream, to connect two computers on my Home network with two gigabit ethernet connections and have a 2 gigabit connection to use. However even after a lot of experimenting I could not get real benefits in the everyday use. The closest I could get was the PPPoE multilink setup. In this series of post I will share same of the test results for a normal one gigabit network, a bonded 2 gigabit network and a PPPoE multilink 2 gigabit network.
