I recently upgraded and moved all of my networking and server equipment into a half-rack:
I am simultaneously jealous/in awe of this setup and relieved that I don’t have it. It looks really cool and well organized. But I always found myself spending a lot of time keeping things like a ddWRT config and dyndns working. It was never quite robust (so maybe I should’ve invested yet more time).
IMO UVerse’s stock router/AP is better than many previous generations stock-ISP gear. Both in terms of performance and reliability.
USRobotics Total Control NETServer 8-modem chassis for my BBS
This part takes the cake, a USR modem bank for a BBS‽ Man, who knew this was still kicking? Is there modern BBS software, or are we still using stuff like PCB/WWIV?

I’ve been using ddWRT for years on routers and have never had to do anything beyond the initial setup and the occasional update, do you mind if I ask what sort of things happened that required maintenance?
