Hello selfhosted.
My router just burnt up and instead of buying a new one, I’m thinking of turning my own built NAS/home server into a router. Is this possible?
The server in question is a normal computer running debian, where I have a few disks in RAID and host some web services. The motherboard only has one RJ45 port, so my guess is that I have to at least get a network card that supports 2 ports. I’m no stranger to linux but physical networking is not my home field, though I’m very interested.
If someone could point me in the right direction, I would be more than happy.
Hey there! Sorry, I got busy with work today.
I was just noticing that you have plenty of replies. I think you seem to have enough to go on with.
If you still need anything, hit a reply to this one and I can give you my 2-cents worth of opinion.
