Selfhosted
A place to share alternatives to popular online services that can be self-hosted without giving up privacy or locking you into a service you don't control.
Rules:
-
Be civil: we're here to support and learn from one another. Insults won't be tolerated. Flame wars are frowned upon.
-
No spam posting.
-
Posts have to be centered around self-hosting. There are other communities for discussing hardware or home computing. If it's not obvious why your post topic revolves around selfhosting, please include details to make it clear.
-
Don't duplicate the full text of your blog or github here. Just post the link for folks to click.
-
Submission headline should match the article title (don’t cherry-pick information from the title to fit your agenda).
-
No trolling.

Get yourself a decent router capable of running OpenWRT, which will allow you to set up vlan's for your lab, and (I would also recommend) another separate vlan for your IoT and other "smart" devices.
The TP-Link Archer C7 is old but reliable and has a lot of open source support.
If you're feeling more adventurous You could also build your own router with any computer that's got two or more Ethernet ports using PFSense, Firewall-NG, or IPFire
Instead of pfSense, I would really recommend OPNsense, originally a fork but now standing on its own. I like the fact that OPNsense tracks closer to the current FreeBSD release than pfSense.
Agreed!
