Executive Summary Observability in a multi-site network requires more than simple ping checks. To maintain high availability, detect performance degradation, and monitor system health across multiple locations (Sopor Site and Mircea Eliade Site), we built a centralized, automated monitoring hub powered by LibreNMS. This architecture unifies SNMP polling, Tailscale mesh network routing, UniFi Site Manager… Read More: Building an Automated Unified Monitoring Stack: Integrating LibreNMS, SNMP, Tailscale,… »

Multi-Site Homelab Mesh Networking: Building a Zero-Trust Network Overlay with Tailscale & Subnet Routing

In modern self-hosting and homelab architecture, remote management often forces a trade-off between convenience and security. Exposing web interfaces to the public internet or relying on proprietary cloud bots introduces security vectors and metadata leakage. By combining Signal (the gold standard of end-to-end encrypted messaging), Antigravity CLI (agy) (an autonomous local AI agentic assistant), and… Read More: My AI Assistant: Building a Private, E2EE Mobile Command Center… »

In the smart home ecosystem, vendor deprecation is a common challenge. When hardware manufacturers terminate cloud support or deprecate mobile setup paths, legacy devices (like Gen 1 and Gen 2 Belkin Wemo smart plugs and motion detectors) often end up as e-waste. However, because these devices run a completely local UPnP/SSDP control API, they can… Read More: Resurrecting Legacy Wemo Devices (Switches & Motion Sensors) with Home… »

In a modern developer’s smart home, the workspace extends far beyond local source code. It spans the physical environment (climate, blinds, air quality), network routing infrastructure (routers, switches, APs), smart appliances (refrigerators, HVAC, printers, smart kitchen devices), personal vehicles, self-hosted web analytics, and off-grid radio meshes. By linking these domains together and exposing them to… Read More: Home Assistant & Smart Infrastructure Setup (14) Unifying the Workspace,… »
