DinJo Posted January 14, 2021 Report Share Posted January 14, 2021 When I had slip disc in 2018 I had to ask my office to get me a chair for neck support f**k that chair is around 98k if you look at that chair it's very slim and doesn't look comfortable but that chair is ultra comfortable for 6+ feet people.

Absolute heaven. Only annoyance is android doesn't auto switch to the AP when I move. Have to turn WiFi on and Off. Living room primary router is AX whereas the AP is not.

I thought they had something paid as a sub for a app that let's you manage or a key ot smth. What model you recommend? Yeah, there's no subscription. They have their unifi software which is used to manage their whole system. You can either run it on your own device (your PC, or a raspberry pi, or in the cloud etc) or buy a dedicated device from them which is called the cloud key (I use the cloud key, because several years ago I decided that all my devices will be for specific purposes and not do multiple things. So network stuff only on network dedicated devices, storage/backup on devices dedicated for those, similarly several other devices that run different things for me within the house) There are lots of different combinations that you can make according to what/if you want to use something from your existing network and what are your needs, size/shape of house etc. But essentially you need a gateway device that connects to the internet (you can use an existing router or use one from their "USG" lineup), then you need to choose an AP (all are good, you can look at their specs and choose per aforementioned parameters, I use AP AC Pros), you can buy their switches if you need to (I don't use theirs, I use TP Link dumb ones). They also have couple of all in one devices now (the "dream machine" line up) but I don't recommend them in their current state as they are still evolving, although they are still better than non-ubnt solutions. Once you set this up, you will be in a for a seamless solution that will not fail you and will also seamlessly extend/modify itself when you connect/remove/upgrade a device, it will automatically configure everything.

rushab oswal Posted January 14, 2021 Report Share Posted January 14, 2021 Hello So i just happened to register noobgaming.in domain, where im planning to write maybe game reviews upload some boss fights, maybe unboxing and funny clips montage. First things first this is a side hobby so earning money is the last thing to do, also i only needed domain as i already have really good hosting for my ecom website so expense is also nil. So what i need in the website is following. 1) A section for reviews 2) A gallery (Directly accessible from home page) with Screenshot albums of different game 3) Video gallery too I have some experience with blogger back in the day but now out of touch? What do you think will be the best for above things? Wordpress or anything else? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If cost is not an issue, then the only questions you are left out with are: - Features - Setup time - Maintenance For feature set, wordpress is your best bet here. It will serve all your needs above either natively or through plugins. Since your needs are quite simple, you can also look at a static site generator, e.g. hugo (My blog https://shantanugoel.com is generated via hugo and hosted on github). A static site is much faster, much lighter on resources, zero security considerations and maintenance needs. This basically helps you focus only on the content and not worry about anything else. But since you have an ecom website already, I guess wordpress may not be that much of a burden on you anyways, so you should start with that and then look for other things in case you feel something off/missing.

Thanks. So hugo looks like has huge base of templates too. Now how is it is to install on a linux server with no root access. Can it be installed via browser (Like prestasop or opencart) . Sorry im kinda noob at this stuff. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Using Orbi (RBK50). Very happy with the performance. Unless you can hardwire your APs (as Shantz mentioned), mesh is the next best solution.

Sorry im kinda noob at this stuff. yeah, so hugo doesn't need any installation on the server per se. It will generate the html files offline and you just need any webserver to serve those html files. In my case, I write my blogs in markdown, then a script in github actions generates the html files and then github serves those html files. You can either just keep hugo on your PC, generate the html files and upload them to the server, or you can run it on the server directly (no root required, it's a single binary that runs as normal user) and serve the files from there.
