This is the way to go. If anyone has suggestions on one, I would love to see them. Most only have 1 nic. A lot of the ones with 2 have a bunch of unnecessary extra IO and cost alot.

Close off the vent in the server room and open the door from the server room and your house. Free heating
You could use windows fine I am sure. It is just the majority of us have other things we like to run and there all developed for Linux or Docker. The other reason people go away from Windows is it uses more RAM and CPU, you are doing so little that it isn't really that big of an issue for you. If you decide to add anything else or run docker, you will probably see why the majority go with Linux, because you will run into issues.
Like others said, don't go with an electrician.
It's very hard to ballpark without going to the site. How do they know if the wall doesn't have a structural beam separating the floors? That's just one example of things they have to check for.
It could be really easy too but they don't know unless they are there. Maybe someone could do it over a video call but even that's tricky.
Like others said, buy a snake and do it yourself. We would be more than happy to go over the steps, parts, and tools you will need.
Walmart maybe? It's a shame best buy is going to stop.
As a side note, I have a question for you or anyone else in datahorder that uses the BluRay ripping method.
Do you consider the BluRay disc as a method of redundancy?
It seems like a reasonable idea to store all your rips in 1 or 2 hard drive that aren't raided. It saves so much space and the only real downfall is if it fails you have to rip the disc's again. I'm just curious of other pitfalls doing it this way. The only one I can really think of is that you might lose your media server indexing data, but that can be easily backed up somewhere else.
Just curious if anyone has gone this method and how it went.
I would like to jump over to it. I have been struggling with Nginx and Apache and I am afraid I have made a mess of things. I am installing on an old Mac Mini with Mac OS so I don't really have a way to isolate and remove Nginx and Apache and I have a feeling if I try Caddy I will get some interferences.
Doesn't look active anymore, you should peel that sticker off
Is that a fan and vent hood coming out of the top?
Tell that gnome to start keeping better track of those cables
I tried it and once I got to the point where I needed documentation, there wasn't any so I went away from it.
I am right there with you. I am a Mechanical Engineer and if we tried putting out a product with the limited documentation that these come out with, we would be taken off the project. ME projects have documentation meant to guide a 10 year old through the process and details. The documentation would fill a 3" 3ring binder.
Yet these network products are released with 1 page of upper level description of the product. Yeah I already know what the product already does, that's why I got it, how about the actual documentation?

I haven't done it before but I would have to imagine when you changed it to AP mode it changed the devices IP address to avoid conflict with the main router.
Try going and logging into your main router in the house and look at the attached devices. See what the new IP address is.
I'm talking out of my ass right now though
