Linux @vikram_helpdesk 1 week ago

Want my home server to keep the same address. Older guides talk about an interfaces file that doesn't exist on my install, and the netplan yaml I wrote throws an error. Ubuntu 22.04.

Routers & Wi-Fi @zeel 1 week ago

I set static IPs on my NAS and printer, but after a power cut some of them came back on different addresses and the printer vanished from every laptop. Should I set the IP on the device or reserve it on the router instead? Bit confused about the difference.

ISP, Speed & Connectivity @tara_helpdesk 2 weeks ago

My ISP won't give residential customers a static IP. I need one to host a small server from home. Can I get a static IP from a different company and route through it, and how does that work?
