Recently started my little homelab. The hardware consists of:

Comcast modem in bridge mode (I use this because it means unlimited data is $10 instead of $30)

TP-Link TL-SG116E - cheap 16 port managed switch I bought off ebay

Dell Wyse 5070 extended with an Intel T350 4-port NIC running on opnsense

Belkin RT3200 running openwrt running as an access point

Have already messed around with setting up opnsense (Adguard Home, Zerotier), and going to keep playing with it. I’ve thought about installing proxmox on the mini PC, connecting an external USB hard drive, and running it as a server and router, but that seems a little jank. Planning on getting some more parts to throw together a small server. You can’t really see it in the picture but the cables are still a little messy.
