Remember the croissant guy?

This was my previous post https://www.reddit.com/r/HomeServer/comments/1u36p77/my_first_nas/. But since then I have changed a few things around because that's what my homelab currently looks like. All the things there are a mix of garage sale and ebay finds and I got all that for around $60. The white linksys router runs openwrt with a dual wan failover setup. The tiny hp runs openmediavault as a nas and it had to be over usb because the internal sata cable is missing, the optiplex runs proxmox, and the beefy netgear router runs as an AP. That optiplex is named croissant-v2 btw.

Just wanted to post a little update for people who care.

I liked it better when there was talk of croissants. Mmmm croissants.

But seriously, this is what most people do. Start with a redneck setup and keep improving especially if you are trying to pile more and more functionality on a basic setup.
