Area above entry way needs to be re-done

This area is our entrance way that juts out into the garage. There was vapor paper and insulation in between the rafters, there was a lot of moisture and rodent damage over the years in this whole area. The roof has been fixed and now I have to redo the sheetrock. The mice and or squirrels were getting in from the eaves. I cannot physically reach that area and looking for the best thing to keep this from happening again.

My plan is:

  1. Remove the existing sheet rock
  2. I can then reach those eaves and fill with something, a physical barrier or a spray in product of some kind
  3. put in new sheetrock
  4. on top lay down insulation and just cover the top with a 1/4 ply

Thanks

Inherited setup now have dedicated IP

I have an inherited setup in our house.

Fiber comes in on a Nokia Router

Then 24 PoE 250W Ubiquiti Switch
Ubiquiti Cloud Key UCk G2 Plus
5 AC Lites
Hard wired ethernet throughout the house

Everything runs great, I got the cloud key only so that I could manage issues away from home as I did not have a dedicated IP.

Now I have a dedicated IP and wondered if I should change anything in my console setup. They just turned on the IP yesterday and all is well here on the LAN, but I remembered vaguely that there there are things I was unable to do with my console setup w/o a dedicated IP. so really I am just checking in on this.

Thanks very much

Thoughts on new tub prep?

Our old tub was removed and now need to prepare for the new one. The new one is smaller and the power will have to be on a dedicated switch. But in general, what are your thoughts on using this existing pad area?

Need to upgrade

I have owned two single bay Synology drives. My current is the DS120J. It is so painfully slow I am going to upgrade. It was my bad not getting a unit with some proc speed.

My needs are minimal, I use it to watch my library locally on Infuse or Plex. I dont have issue watching, transcoding, it is just interacting with the DSM that I can deal with anymore.

So, I dont need more space, just a realistic interaction with the DSM. I am thinking the DS225+ is the way to go, but asking here first for suggestions.

TIA

I have been using InFuse at home for access to my NAS, but wanted to explore remote access. My provider uses CGNAT and any remote access is a bit of a pain.

I have Plex Server set up on my Synology DS120j. I have access to it via a Tailscale account. Plex from my Mac laptop connects, but boy is it slow, like pretty much useless. What can I do to try and trouble shoot this situation and see if it is possible to remotely use Plex?

Thanks.
