There are always one or two rooms at home with poor WiFi signal, so don't rush to spend money on Mesh. I drew a floor plan and walked around the five houses with my phone, recording the dBm numbers for each room. It was obvious whether the signal was blocked by load-bearing walls or refrigerators. Try the three zero-cost tricks first, then spend money if it really doesn't work. Don't reverse the order....

When installing a NAS and buying a hard drive, which should you choose: Cool Wolf, Galaxy, or Red Drive? My first map was cheap and bought a tiled tray. On the simulated swap day, the progress bar was stuck at 78%. This article explains the differences between CMR and SMR, how to calculate the unit price per TB, and the three prerequisites for second-hand enterprise listings....

Gigabit broadband scores 940Mbps as full speed, 300Mbps downloads capped at 37.5MB/s. Calculate your unit clearly before blaming the carrier. I compared five speed testing tools together: the app is more accurate than the web, the wrong node can be about 10% worse, and before testing, you turn off the background apps that steal data before the speed test and then pull the network cable. If you set these points wrong, all the numbers you get are useless....

Synology Active Backup is free and has no device restrictions. I set up whole-system backups for all three family computers, and when the system crashed, I used a recovery USB drive to restore the whole device in half an hour. The differences between document level and full machine level, deduplication measured numbers, and three pitfalls are clearly explained in one go....

How much electricity cost is a year's worth if the optical modem, router, and switch are running 24/7? I tested each power outlet one by one for three days. The whole set costs about 140 yuan per year. The real power consumption is the set-top box, which thinks it's fine once the remote is turned off. The standby 15W is about the same as turning it on, and it costs 72 yuan a year....

Phone photos automatically back up, but dozens of gigabytes of documents and photos on your computer are still exposed? I pointed both the MacBook's Time Machine and Windows file history to my home NAS: Synology started Bonjour in three steps, and the quota had to be set, otherwise Time Machine would fill up the entire drive. This Windows feature was hidden in the old control panel. The setup and mishaps for the three computers in FamilyMart are all here....

The weak current box was a mess when opened, the network cables couldn't tell which room was connected, and the power adapters were squeezed together and couldn't be plugged in. I spent an afternoon attaching labels, rearranging equipment, and securing cables. After tidying up, I hadn't moved it for two years. Identifying lines, positioning, and organizing lines—three steps—explained in one article....

Is installing Synology a storage pool stuck between SHR and RAID1? I calculated the accounts using two 4T+8T drives: the same capacity drives are exactly the same, but the mixed capacity SHR can provide 4TB more usability, but the extra portion has no redundancy. Expansion rules, no redundant pits, and numbered seating tables—read them before clicking next....

How to wire a network cable socket panel? For renovation, I left the cable section in the 86 box, just install a network module according to the color code and cable card, no need to carry T568B wiring sequences. A wire cutter costs over ten yuan per piece, and the first time I hit it, I broke the wire cap. This article explains the tools, steps, three pitfalls, and verification methods all in one place....

If you forgot the NAS administrator password, don't rush to reinstall it. Use the reset port on Synology to set the password and network settings to the second round, keeping all hard drive data; Feiniu wants to switch from GRUB to passwd, while Synology has to use the guide disk. Three types of machines, three paths—I've stepped through them all to copy for you....
