The home network project is almost complete. It took quite a bit of work, a full weekend and I had to take a day off work to make the final progress to the core infrastructure. I still have to do a few more cable drops and finalize the setup of one more access point then we\u2019re good to go.<\/p>\n

Either way, I\u2019m really happy with the setup so far even though it\u2019s not complete, it is fully functional for my needs. Although, I am running a 30 foot ethernet cable across my living room \/ bedroom for the iMac, everything else is good to go. I took some photos of the setup:<\/p>\n

\"New<\/a><\/p>\n

Core setup, 12 U Rack mount + Cisco ISR 2811 + Cisco Gigabit Switch + Synology\u00a0DS214 Play w\/ 12 terabytes of storage, Cat 6 and other miscellaneous hardware detailed in the last post.<\/p>\n

You can see the orb access point at the other side of the basement. It\u2019s powered over ethernet which is great and really easy to manage (Unify Access Point)<\/p>\n

\"New<\/a><\/p>\n

Just some of the cabling, 4 cables going into the wall of the bedroom<\/p>\n

Looking forward to more improvements over the coming weeks!
