Lol, and you know he will run into a big problem when he digs into the wall... Just kidding

Finish line is near. Hope you guys are enjoying it.

Actually, I know it's good. Because it used to be open around the pipe coming down the wall behind the old stove. I patched the gyp board and taped and floated it less than a month ago. Gotta love rework (I fuckin hate rework!!)

Got the dishwasher cleaning all the dishes that have been boxed up or sitting out. The cabinets are still a little dusty from the construction, so they're getting cleaned before each load.

How does it interface with existing wired-only network gear? Can I plug it into an existing wired network router or firewall rather than straight into the modem?

I don't know why you couldn't. You would only be limited by what came before it in the chain.

However, each pod has a wired thru-put. Unless it's for security reasons, I'd plug right up to the modem and send the original wire out the other side.

I see it now in the tech specs. The primary uses in/out for WAN/LAN, but additional pods use both as LAN ports. And yeah, definitely for security.

I did a full factory reset on this old router and it seems to have fixed my issues. I'm still interested in the mesh, but at least for the time being my speed is back.

I've also got gear that I have already wired (such as the TV). And to keep the wireless traffic to a minimum, I would prefer to continue to use them wired.

When in doubt, reboot. When that fails, hard reset. Works 95% of the time.

I am going to actually end up with Cisco Meraki APs for the homelab.
