Linux Wireless Print Server

I was using a homebrew Linux server for my Plex system. That machine died due to a power fluctution (looking at you First Energy). This was chosen as a replacement. Very much easier to manage, although not quite as versatile as a general prupose Linux system (then again NOTHING is as versatile).

I used this to build a linux firewall server. The old server that I had was destroyed by a lightning strike. So far, the new system is doing the job.

I had to do very little to get this working. Installed in a Linux server, booted into the card BIOS, configured the RAID and done. It presented the drive to the OS as configured, and throughput was better than I expected (first time using a StarTech controller, so I WAS apprehensive) given the list price. The small size makes for it not getting in the way inside the case or obstructing airflow. I received this product in exchange for an unbiased review.

Great throughput in my Linux server. Come with a cooling fan that lights up the room with rainbow colors.

Much easier to configure on a Linux server than the standard Network UPS tools. Convenient web UI.

Setup on a Windows print server. Works great.

This is the BEST All-In-One WIRELESS I have ever bought! I can instantly print from any of my wireless devices!

Seems to print fine, color or black. Past printers wouldn't work with Linux, I simply plugged in the RJ45, turned on the printer and set the static IP address and two Linux computers found it automagically and printed to it just fine.

I bought this router to accommodate a web/minecraft/media server, constant online gaming, excessive video streaming, and three wireless access points (my house has metal lathe, which acts like a faraday cage). Was previously using some Netgear garbage home user Wi-Fi router that couldn't keep up with the demand and was awful to manage. This router is a breeze to manage if you have at least basic networking knowledge. The 10 ports allow me to wire my server, computer, access points, and other peripheral gear to keep the wireless networks from getting congested. The quality of my home network improved dramatically and allowed me to actually utilize every drop of the gigabit ethernet we pay for. I also appreciate Ubiquiti's detailed firmware upgrade logs. I would absolutely recommend this router to anyone looking to have fast, easily configurable internet at home, and I'm sure it would hold up well for a small business too.

Setup was simple although for the most part. I am having some difficulty setting up the email server but that is probably me. Fantastic print quality, great UI, competitive price!
