Yeah, if you look at the timestamp and realize that's it's 0100 on a Friday night/Saturday morning it makes it a lot sadder.

Yuck. When stuff like that happens, I see red. No worries at all

Btw, I saw this post before, but decided not to comment really. Easily you have solid skills and so does cdkline06. Seemed kinda like a pissing match for a while.
I still don't understand your reasoning behind the setup, but best of luck for sure.

Yeah. It was a pissing match, which I most certainly started. Not sure where it came from, as I don't usually play the internet tough guy routine. I was put in my place pretty quickly with my forgetfullness and lack of reading comprehension, though. So its all good.

No worries, loopback and I are about to start a thread on using a router on a stick to get everyone's vlans communicating. Should be a hit. j/k.

1) Current backend is underpowered and cannot do the job.
2) Need/would like NAS (4 bay preferable)
3) Anticipated move leaves me without WiFi. I do own a pretty reliable/decently spec'd N900 access point.
3 birds, one stone. And I like to think I'm doing it as cheap as possible on this end. I've gotten lots of "whys?" but no one has been able to offer a cheaper solution that meets these three needs.
The CableCard boxes are lagniappe, but they're in effort to opt in to HD cable while opting out of monthly fees. Net break even time is a year on one. And I'm currently leaning toward the HDHomerun only without the Samsung STB.

Nice. That should be a riot. Lots of participation. ![](https://images.tigerdroppings.com/Images/Icons/Iconbow.gif)
