Yeah, a 2nd AP wired into the first router would eliminate any performance hit of having the router do both. Hard to say what the impact would be without testing though.

Hi, network engineer with a specialization in mikrotik, you’re on the right track.

You would configure the router to use one radio as your WAN connection, then NAT your internal connection using a masquerade rule. Pretty simple setup.

Some notable drawbacks for this dependent on model is that you will lose wireless speed as you will be using your wireless for upstream and downstream devices. This can be solved by using an AP on a different channel.

Note that mikrotik gives you a lot of ways to cut off your hands, so use safe mode for everything.

The specific topology you’re wanting to set up is something they teach you on day one at any mikrotik certification course.

Install bazzite. Done.

Yup

It’ll move in the direction of local rendering, with cloud “AI” powered elements

Bazzite was a 15 minute experience for me, from first boot to playing X4 foundations and sea of thieves.

Take the leap.

Honestly I migrated to bazzite about a month ago and my entire library has just… worked. It was shockingly easy. I haven’t changed anything from defaults at all.

Can you post the actual info and not a Facebook link?

There’s a way in most email environments to setup a mail flow rule that will convert any email with over x number of users CC’d to BCC.

The system must handle the idiots, not the other way around

Did they? I lose track of what trump is mocked for

Internet infrastructure in the US in particular isn’t a monolith like that. A “core router” is a high capacity router in an autonomous system that will usually communicate with other core routers in other systems, owned by different and often competing entities

Oh hush. Just keep scrolling, I’m glad it was posted here

Less about open source, more of just a practical stance. The thing about networking is that standards change all the time, and it’s better to have a single device serve a single role on the network than to cram all those functions into a combo box.

So an ideal network has a separate router, switch, and access point. Ideally two of each in redundant configurations but that’s not required for most people.

I’m saying that your router and access point should be separate devices anyway, especially if you don’t want to replace said router.

My router doesn’t have wireless at all. I have a dedicated WiFi 6 access point for that, if I want to go up to a newer standard I just replace the AP.

Oh come on, don’t knock the router for not being the best access point. That’s not what it’s for.

It isn’t
