I second this.

I’ve learned about it at work and used it privately.

I use Dokploy and I think it fills exatly the same role.

Why would you need a travel router?

The rpi already can be set up to hotspot it’s own wifi network.

For connecting to hotel wifi, a simple usb dongle is good enough, as discussed here: https://forums.raspberrypi.com/viewtopic.php?t=287485

In regards to VPN-ing into the media server at home - depending on where you travel, you might not have any internet or you might use up your mobile data volume.

They support AMD as well.

Seems like you can run llama.cpp directly on intel ARC through Vulkan, but there are still some hurdles for ollama.

Definitive roadmap (for the lazy people edition):

1. Get some computing device
2. Install dokploy
3. Run whatever containers in it with a couple of clicks

I had some similar symptoms on a Fritzbox router, because by default the devices connected over wifi were unable to communicate with those connected by cable. Some routers also had this setting for the different wifi bands, 2.4G & 5G.

But I don’t think you’d be able to ping it if this were the case.

Check yoyr router settings anyway, maybe you’ll find something there.

With a Blazor (serverside mode) project you could have that with a nice user experience. Blazor has a tiny js which initializes something, otherwiss it renders the site on the server and sends the component updates to the browser, so the whole site does not need to reload, only the relevant components (which is kind of interesting).

Maybe there is some blazor serverside e-commerce project out there, I wouldn’t personally recommend it though.

Well, I don’t think thats what OP had in mind but there is WebAssembly as well.

For the site itself the most minimal thing you can do is an html file.

Then some software to act as the “server” that serves that file to a visitor. (nginx, caddy, apache - there are many options).

And your domain needs a domain record which points to your server.

As you want to use a home pc, you need to figure out whether your ISP gives you a dynamic or static IP.

If static, you can just use that.

If dynamic, you’d need some service like dynDNS to keep pointing your domain to your changing IP.

You can start by checking out the e-commerce list on awesome selfhosted. At a glance there are multiple which seem to be easy to set up, and require no code, so you should take a deeper look and decide based on your needs.

If you find something there that suits your needs make sure to let us know why you chose it :)

Not sure about debian, but the archlinux iso has ssh on per default, so if you have no other bootable drives in your server other than the usb with the iso, just fire it up and try to connect to it via ssh.

Sorry I didn’t read your post in depth. But if you need switches, especially with lots of ports or PoE, older Alcatel-Lucent switches are rock-solid and relatively cheap off ebay, cause lots of companies that used them are upgrading. Just make sure to find one that fits your requirements per port.

Maybe linux-hardware.org but I don’t know tbh.

Packaging a service for StartOS is a challenging, exciting, creative, and rewarding experience.

Yeah no thanks I’ll just run it on Ubuntu or Arch Linux then, where a package is already available.

Ah makes sense. Still there should be no issue with doing stuff the normal way.

apt update doesn’t update your OS to a whole new version.

The command for an OS update is something like “do-release-upgrade” (but I forgot the exact name since I havent used debian for years)

I don’t know why your software or OS can not be updated.

According to the official instructions (https://github.com/mcguirepr89/BirdNET-Pi/wiki/Installation-Guide) is should just be a normal raspbian. Nothing on there says it needs a legacy version, but I may be overlooking something.

If you installed it some other way or did it long ago then maybe do the setup over again from scratch with the newest raspbian version? (Don’t forget to backup any data you’d want to keep)

Sir, this is not a sales pitch

Are you changing the same files at the same time?

Rarely. But there is some offline laptop use compounded with slow sync times. (I was running it on a raspi with external usb hdd enclosure)

Either way, I’d like something less fragile. I’ll test seafile again sometime, thanks.

I actually moved from seafile to nextcloud, because when I have two PCs running simultaneously it would constantly have sync errors and required manually resolving them all the time. Sadly nextcloud wasn’t really better. But I am now looking for solutions that can avoid file conflicts with two simultaneous clients.
