Because it costs money to educate the doctors, then they want money.

Local hosting

Yeah, a 2nd AP wired into the first router would eliminate any performance hit of having the router do both. Hard to say what the impact would be without testing though.

Hi, network engineer with a specialization in mikrotik, you’re on the right track.

You would configure the router to use one radio as your WAN connection, then NAT your internal connection using a masquerade rule. Pretty simple setup.

Some notable drawbacks for this dependent on model is that you will lose wireless speed as you will be using your wireless for upstream and downstream devices. This can be solved by using an AP on a different channel.

Note that mikrotik gives you a lot of ways to cut off your hands, so use safe mode for everything.

The specific topology you’re wanting to set up is something they teach you on day one at any mikrotik certification course.

We’re currently the 2nd most active instance measured by MAU, only lead by Lemmy.world

Yeah I was surprised too, but if you go by MAU hexbear and Lemmy.Ml combined are just under 3k last I checked.

Lemm.ee alone has about that many, and Lemmy.world has many times that

Nah I’d say this is right on par with the philosophy of the instance. Lemm.ee is moreso infrastructure for interacting with the fediverse than a specific community

They have less than 500 MAU. It’s just a bunch of losers yelling at each other.

Correction, updated data is actually closer to 2k MAU. They are the 4th most active instance, topped by lemm.ee, sh.itjust.works, and Lemmy.world.
