Seriously, they call it a homelab store and are easily charging 40% more than just going to other resellers. Like $90 for a Supermicro AOC-SLG3-2M2. You can buy them on Amazon for $55 all day long. It's a dumb card, you have to enable bifurcation on the slot you install it in.
I certainly didn't build myself a homelab to pay double for everything.
Sorry Marcus, I don't feel that overburdened by money.
I've had AT&T Fiber in two different cities 360 miles apart and neither location had CGNAT. The AT&T Gateway isn't the greatest, but it can hand off the WAN IP to your own router, but you're still confined to the AT&T Gateway's tiny NAT table. The extra upload speed is no joke. I also Work from home and I can upload files to the company Google Drive faster than I can when I visit an office. You can ask AT&T for static IPs still I believe, but at my last place the Dynamic IP didn't change in 4 years.
The service has been quite reliable. I have had one 2 hour outage after a windstorm in six months. I live in an older neighborhood where telecom and electric are all above ground in the alley.
Maybe 45 drives wouldn't need to jack up their prices if they'd stop donking all their cash giving it to tech influencers.
