In this video (part 2 of my home/office network upgrade), I walk through what it actually takes to move from a basic “it works” setup into advanced prosumer gear that’s designed for performance, segmentation, and future growth. I start with the planned changes and why I’m doing them—this isn’t just buying shiny hardware. I’m justifying the upgrade based on real network performance needs, and then I lay out how I’m thinking about the physical build, including a proposed 15U rack with 10-gig and PoE as the backbone. From there, I get into the theory side—especially VLANs—because if you’re going prosumer, you need to understand how to separate traffic (home devices, work gear, IoT, guest Wi‑Fi, etc.) so your network is both cleaner and more secure. I also unbox and describe two key components that fit into the plan, and I wrap it all up with where this upgrade is headed. Nothing in this video is sponsored; I’m building this like I build everything on this channel: practical, test-driven, and meant to help you learn fast and build with confidence.
