Same here! I check Amazon last after exhausting other options first. Also I find that most items on Amazon can be bought on Chinese apps/sites (ali express, temu, shein etc), they’re literally the exact same, just cost 10 times more lol. Oh, and fuck the CCP.

Many good suggestions on here. I have Rockstor running on mine. When I built my NAS, it was the only OS that used BTRFS for the FS (and I really like BTRFS) so I went with it.

Edit: also I have it running in Proxmox as a VM.

I’ve had intermittent issues with T-Mobile on hotspot too. I’m not sure how helpful this will be but here’s my 2 cents. The only params I played with that seemed to help were the :

1- MTU (if I remember correctly, I had to dial it down to 1300)

2- and using IPv6 instead of v4.

This will depend on the APN you’re using for T-Mobile. I believe they have a legacy one that only uses IPv4 whereas their new one supports IPv6 only (I wasn’t able to find clear info about this but this is my guess). In any case, I have my wireguard server setup to support and use both IP versions and when v4 doesn’t work for me, switching to v6 fixes the issue for a while. At some point I even suspected they were heavily throttling wireguard traffic, which may be the case but who knows.

I hope this helps, good luck!

Good job and thanks for sharing.

1. this sounds like a disguised ad…
2. the monthly pricing doesn’t make sense, it’s too low for them to be sustainable as business, especially considering the offered features.
3. any cloud storage company that offers lifetime plans should not be taken seriously.
4. the only positive here is that their FE apps are open source.
