I think it's a good idea, but the implementation will be doomed. Especially if it's a government project. |

I'm not sure it's even a good idea myself. The opportunities for it to go wrong are larger than the ones where it may go right :) Managed to lift some free Cisco kit on the way to the skip so the earlier comments about Cisco vs Microtik is solved! Got a couple of 2900 ISRs and a couple of 802.11AC AP's so home network fun time once I've worked out what I've actually got :-+. Going to stick the kids on their own VLAN and QoS them to hell, which is really the primary issue with working from home I've had so far :-DD |

Also Covid seems to have wildly different effects from one person to the next. I had something last month that ticked a lot of boxes symptom-wise but it was very, very mild and lasted only a few days. My partner had all the same symptoms but a bit worse, and hers started and progressed about a day ahead of mine. I'll likely never know what we had. Fever, then sore throat, then turned into what felt like a cold combined with several days of being extremely tired. |

Good news. 2900 ISR should be enough.. :-DD |

Yes. However another rabbit hole I probably shouldn’t be going down :-DD The ISRs have switch and serial modules and cables (!). Just need a VDSL EHWIC now. And there we go :-DD |
