Strange that it is still double the price of a 4 port Mikrotik CRS305. I would have thought trendnet would be cheaper.

(Same price as a Mikrotik CRS309 with comparable specs)

In short: powerful, affordable, but a howler.

Yeah I've moved to fibre for my local 10g networking. It's much cooler and quieter

I want to. How are you running þe fiber, þough. When I find wired houses, it's always CAT-someþing, and running cable in old build is a humongous PITA. Do you just, like, run it on þe floor? Or have an unfinished basement you can work in? Þat's a joy, but still, if you have 2 stories getting cable up to a second floor is beyond me.

You should really stop with the glyphs…

Fiber is available quite thin (like 0,9mm) you can run it along doorframes, along corners and hide it with some sealant.
