    Your speeds are most likely being throttled by the managed service provider running the network in the apartment building...I would complain and show them other rates/speed in your area.

    What is wrong with internet prices in the US? In Bulgaria, you can get 1 Gbps upload and download for 15 euros.

    Love this. &nbsp;People don&apos;t think about their internet enough, but you finding ways to take control is awesome!

    Good job on the video! Just a heads up to save you grief hopefully. On the Dream Machine, make sure you use a really good line-active UPS for it. I have an SE, and it ran until just outta warranty and just stopped. No reset, etc. In trying to troubleshoot it, I found out that it was a very common thing. The power supply just quits with the slightest power interruption, and Ubiquiti offers no repair and no parts. I moved to Alpha Labs for the entire replacement, and I&apos;m very happy with it. Not saying you made a mistake at all, just letting you know what happened with mine and evidently a ton of others.

    Hi, im network engineer here. Also my home network is settled up like an enterprise campus network. About your internet speed, did you double NAT the upstream link? Cause if you double NAT your internet, your upstream network performance maybe get degraded because of the NAT.
