I have a 2nd-gen chromecast, it's factory reset. If i plug it in all it tells me is to install the app to start configuring.
I don't have a google account not do i want to install/use google-related stuff on my phone.
My home router doesn't register any new device, which makes sense since the cast doesn't know the SSID/pass of the WiFi.
Does it try to ping some service/port? Multicast perhaps? Where would it get an IP from without authenticating?
My (wired) PC runs gentoo.
How can i get it to work in these conditions?
Hi,
I would like to make some simple network simulations
I've tried to make run few (under Linux or Windows)
The only one that I managed to install, run and use (set some nodes) was sadly the Cisco Packet Tracer ...
They other have their install process way to much complex or with such layer of dependency or more simply they way the works is too complex (running side VM for each nodes etc..) make it challenging to installing.
Do youn know a FLOSS Network Simulator , this is easy to install ?
Thanks.
I'm moving into a new apt and the ISP is trying to rent a router at $20/mo, so I'd like to get my own router.
I'm considering setting up opnsense for the router & TP link Omega for the AP & Switch.
But this feels a bit overkill for an apt. Should I just get a all in one router instead? What are the pros and cons?

How can I use my VPNs port forwarding feature while also disabling global routing by adding “route-nopull” in the OpenVPN config? Using hide.me vpn
I found a relevant post, but the links to the anwsers don't work anymore: https://forum.netgate.com/topic/127557/openvpn-client-port-forwarding-route-nopull-issue
Didn't know where else to post this but figured I would just leave it here. Hopefully I can get some kind of job with this.

Fires started in railway cabling have impacted up to 800,000 people across the French railway network on the eve of the Paris Olympics.
In Belgium, we are forced by law to use Cca data cables because of "lower fire risk" while I hear literally everywhere that CCA data cables have a much higher fire risk.
Everything here has to comply with the euroclass chart level cca or higher which is confusing because they seem to be combustibility(ca) ABCDEF rating. Making the minimum required in Belgium (and the most prevalent) Cca.
I think for example that getting this for PoE (sorry, in Dutch) would be fine because it does say that it is pure copper, but it also says that it is CCA which is confusing.
Not really a question or anything, just very confusing considering Cca and Eca are the 2 cable types used for residential homes which happen to correspond also to Copper clad aluminum and Enhanced Circuit Integrity. Adds extra probably completely unnecessary stress.
If you have an outdoor Ethernet port—in my case with a WiFi AP connected—how can you go about protecting your network from somebody jacking in?
Is there a way to bind that port to only an approved device? I figured a firewall rule to only allow traffic to and from the WiFi AP IP address, but would that also prevent traffic from reaching any wireless clients connected to the AP?
Edit: For more context, my router is a Ubiquiti UDM and the AP is also Unifi AP
I haven't really done home networking since Windows XP / gnome only Ubuntu days, so rusty is an understatement.
Currently due to the layout of my apartment, I have my main PC in a bedroom connected to a gli.net Velica router, such then connects to the wall, which then connects to a TP-Link Switch (1), which is connected to the internet.
In the living room, where I want to stream to a Raspberry Pi that has Android TV (lineage os), I have the Pi and 2 Nintendo Switches connected to another TP-Link switch (2), which is then connected to another gli.net router, which connects to the wall and then to TP-Link switch (1) which is connected to internet.
How do I set up a local LAN network so that my computer can then stream to the Pi via Steam Link, Moonlight, Sunshine, or any other recommended option?

Hi, i have this weird issue where both my IVPN and my AirVPN connection works only if i do the following:
Disabile WiFi Connect to LTE and open either IVPN or AirVPN Connect to wireguard protocol Enable WiFi and Connect to it Disabile LTE
Now it works
If i try to connect to wireguard protocol from WiFi directly (corporate WiFi) it doesnt work
Any idea why?
If i Connect from my home WiFi it works normally
Thanks
