A year or two ago, I purchased an Asus RT-AC51U "Dual-Band AC750 WiFi 4-port Gigabit Router with USB device sharing"

The WAN port is 100mbps
The LAN ports are 100mbps
The Wifi is AC750 (WiFi 5 capable of max of about 433mbps)

I purchased this because their page stated it was a gigabit router, and I planned to upgrade my service to gigabit eventually. Which I recently did. I'm enjoying my 100mbps connection still.

Quick poll for the audience (please boost for reach)

You see a WiFi Router marketed as: "Dual-Band AC750 Wifi 4-port Gigabit Router with USB device sharing"

Your impression is the device:

For my review of the case, here's what I put in at Newegg. It was $45 shipped, not too bad.

The Mainboard was in my scrap pile. I can't find my i7 4770, so just tossed in the i5 for now. Using the stock fan for a top intake, with the 1080's rad for exhaust. Cable managed as best possible.

Have a full ATX PSU coming.

Total cost for the build for me was about $100 (just for the case and PSU, as I had everything else laying around)

Just kinda want to show off my latest build, a cursed home for the 1080TI FTW3 Hybrid that was given to me for Christmas from a friend. Will do VR duty for my Rift S (which I haven't used since I went back to linux on my main rig last year), and maybe steam streaming for non-proton-friendly games.

Mainboard: Dell XPS 8700
CPU: i5 4590
RAM: 20GB DDR3
SSD: Hynix 512GB 2.5" SATA SSD
HDD: HGST 1TB SATA
GPU: eVGA 1080TI FTW3 Hybrid
PSU: Lian Li SFX 750W (temporary)
Case: Matrexx 40

My new keyboard is GLORIOUS! #GMMK barebones, loaded with Outemu blues, and a custom keycap set built from 3 other sets. Types like a dream, sounds amazing. I'm in love!

I got to recap my refrigerator tonight! That was unexpected. GE GSH25SGRB SS. Was just clicking.
No compressor, wasn't cooling.
Main board had two caps going bulgy wulgy. Nichicon 470uf @ 25V.

I didn't have the right caps in stock, so just used what I had on hand (cheapo bulk Chinese caps) - they'll probably last a few weeks until the right ones come in.

It's working again for now, at least :)

I have migrated my #Mastodon instance over to #AWS #S3 Bucket.

The guide missed some things, had some things out of date, and was a bit frustrating, but I got through it.

Too bad I didn't take notes, would have been nice to keep anyone else from the same hiccups.

But now I don't have to worry about my 60GB SSD filling up lol.

Browsing Buyee for fun, I stumbled across this listing for "IBM WebBoy for DOS". A program that up until now I never though saw a final release, no less a boxed one.

I'm not gonna buy it, but maybe one of you are interested in buying/archiving this rare piece of oddware.
