  • I can’t really move out of the attic, that’s where all the connections go, below the attic is 1st floor, and there’s nowhere i can pass that many cables, unfortunately.

    Yea, i recently thought about battery backup honestly, but outages are quite rare here, and i would need like 3 battery backup solutions, because i got the ONT on a room in the 1st floor, and to pass the fiber to the attic would be quite a job, so, i’d need 1 battery backup 12v for ont, 1 battery backup for attic, and 1 for my office downstairs, and that is getting quite expensive since i got 4 monitors :D



  • I really don’t understand how you guys have such variables in CCA cabling, i never heard of it before ordering 305m… but i have gbit fiber and my connections and links are totally fine for years on such cabling.

    Even what i see in stores mostly the “affordable” stuff is CCA, so, it cannot be that bad.

    I do have sometimes DNS issues with my pi-hole, i have to disconnect and reconnect my pc, i’m not sure on the interaction but the pi-hole is directly into the router by a 0.5m copper factory cable.

    The longest run i have is probably 20m, but i have 10~ of them.

    Still, i’m not trying to discredit standards nor vouch for any CCA cable, i’m saying what it works for me and most companies i see here in Portugal use.
