What... the fuck...

I expected a curious story about how elves enchanted your modem and now you feared to gaze upon it lest the spell be broken, not this fucking necronomicon vs the infinity stones shit.

I'm just lost, you broke the matrix, I can't begin to figure this out.

Going to at least ask about gigabit pro, live in silicon valley, used to work at google, can't get fucking fiber to save my life, it's like a greek tragedy, but you have given me the courage to try again.

Haha I'm glad you found it inspiring - I only ever intended for it to be a temporary exercise in overkill networks but I love squeezing ISPs for what they're worth and I just kept getting lucky.

Beware that getting multi gig wan is a very good excuse to overkill your network with 10gig firewalls, switches, and the latest bleeding edge draft-standard-based wifi gear, on the plus side you will always have a retort when someone online says you could never need mgig home gear because surely your wan can't be more than a gig anyway.

I'm at 10g internal for what matters, with a unifi dream machine, so 10g firewall could work, my limiting factor has always been that fucking uplink :(

Visiting a rural island off the coast of sweden in a few weeks. Better fiber for cheaper. Than down the street from fucking google.

Oh fuck you so much comcast. Bless you sir, blessings upon you and your house.
