Back In The Stone Age

Woke up to a dead router this morning (RIP ASUS Black Knight, you served well) but at least I was able to find an old one in the old pile o’ parts to sub in for now. Even though it only has 100Mb ports and too-insecure-to-actually-use-802.11b…

I’m not sure what to do now though, since I’ve been thinking of upgrading my internet service and I think either of the potential options are going to force their own all-in-one DOCSIS/Fibre router on me anyway. I’ve always been kind of wary of those since I’ve always used custom firmware for advanced features like static DHCP, dynamic DNS updates, QoS, bandwidth monitoring, etc., and having to use their router might mean giving some of that up. Time to do some research.
