+ <b>helios</b> is the nervous system and the central point
+ of my home network. It's a very modest
+ <b>Ubiquity Networks EdgeRouter-X</b> and boy does that
+ thing delivers.
+ </p>
+ <p>
+ This is essentially a simple router/firewall/NAT. It's
+ clearly not a FortiGate or an OPNsense-loaded appliance but
+ it's fairly capable for the price, while consuming less
+ electric power. With hardware offloading, I'm able to reach
+ Gigabit Ethernet no problem. Also, this is powered by a MIPS
+ processor, which is cool.
+ </p>
+ <p>
+ The plan was originally to get this temporarily, because
+ it's cheap, and then when I'm richer getting myself a
+ larger, more capable, 2.5GbE OPNsense-type firewall to fit
+ with my 2.5GbE fiber installation, and to communicate with
+ a future NAS equiped in 2.5GbE as well, also considering
+ changing all my switches to 2.5GbE ones (much pricier).
+ But in reality, I don't need such a deluxe setup, and I'll
+ probably never get a NAS, storing things in extrnal HDDs is
+ fine.
+ </p>
+ <p>
+ I use this to separate my devices into subnets and route
+ some of my traffic through WireGuard when I need peace of
+ mind. This thing is great, get yourself one.
+ </p>
+ <p>
+ Bellow you can find a map of my home network.

+ The <b>bbox</b>, my ISP box, is essentially a bridge to
+ the internet at this point. I'll get a generic ONT and
+ try to replace it. This fucker keeps pinging all of the
+ devices it can find and sending data home. At least my
+ subnet devices are safe now because its now blocked by
+ <b>helios</b>. But removing <b>bbox</b> entirely would
+ be great.
