Yup, you are right, Bruckner… :open_mouth:

I forgot this dropped on Friday. Solid bit of work:

I found a picture where I could read the part number of the thing that makes the ethernet work. Here you https://www.we-online.com/components/products/datasheet/749013011A.pdf

Notice the drawing on the right “Schematic”, notice the squiggly lines facing each other… that’s an air gap because ethernet is already galvanic isolated per spec.

I do love the chassis and the massive toroidal supply. I don’t have a toroidal supply in any of the switches I’ve ever used at home or professionally.

I’m sure it sounds great!

I just checked my R.O.C.K status after our chat and I guess it automatically updated itself to 2.1 at some stage along the way.
I’m not EA either.
Looks like I will give Tailscale a play later.
