Not sure whats going on but my networks been reaaaaally bad lately. For like 3 days I've had not more than about 100 mb/s (my usual average is around 600 on 1 Gbit line). And this is really annoying because additionally I've lost contact to my server and therefore all my services for 3 times now, including my networking vm, which you can see here.

I've tried resetting the wifi and diagnosed my router and my lan bridge but cannot find the cause. So thats why I am curious if its a problem on a larger scale. There seems to be a bandwidth and uptime error for many services right now.

I know this is not an optimal setup but I have no other option than over my repeater.

It's been a few months since my server is fully operational. Its running 24/7 and hosts a few services for me:

  • Truenas vm for cloud storage
  • Networking vm for cloudflare tunnel and traefik reverse proxy
  • vm for general hosting like my personal website etc
  • vm for github action runners

> Rest is windows and ubuntu that I use with passthrough for work and gaming so its not running all the time.

I've been tracking its performance for a few weeks now and I was surprised to see that my average load is only about 1,5%. To be fair I haven't done any gaming on it in the past weeks but still, I thought that I would use my hardware more than that.

  • I run an HP Z440 with:
  • Intel Xeon E5 2697 v4
  • 96GB ecc ddr4 ram
  • 3TB SSD
  • Nvidia Quadro P6000 (not used atm)

What is your load average and is my current solution overkill? The more I try to actually utilise it, the less I am confident in my current setup rather than using a mini cube.
