@jaredbusch honestly, at home I tend to mimic what I have in the office. It's nowhere near it obviously. I'm pro Ubiquiti for the office along with HP when needed and DELL for my servers
My time sometimes goes far in between before I do brand new infrastructure setups. So for me, it's just practice and learning. I typically find that I'm more entertained how I can do more with linux (depends on my caffeine intake for the day) that might have a steep learning curve but in the end its worth it.
I don't care what anyone says lol fixing my Ubuntu box with my Unifi Controller was a labor of love but I got it working and I dare not touch it But for me I plan on deleting, remaking it and going back through the whole process to hopefully learn to do it faster and better and keep the commands properly documented.
I eventually plan on doing the same with the Ubiquiti NVR.
I kinda do wish Ubiquiti made their router work on x86 that would have actually made my day but its all good I realize PFsense is kinda where I need to put my attention back on. I have installed it and used it successfully in the past.
