Did you change the native VLAN to IoT or just added the tag and left the native VLAN on the switch port set to default? You should be able to change the native VLAN and leave tagged VLANs as "allow all".

My only other thought is how did you isolate the IoT network and are you able to access other devices from default to IoT?

I've had it running for a few months, I don't use it that often but it's been super handy when I need it.

there would be no place to put a TV screen that’s visible from the whole seating

That was kind of the point, it was called a "conversation pit"

It sounds like a nightmare, but I'm sure the coke helped.

NUC was an Intel thing, it's used commonly for any USFF PC but NUC was specifically a line from Intel and, I believe, they sold the name off to Asus. They stopped making them, but other people are still continuing to make USFF PCs with Intel chips.

His son/accountability partner would never allow that.

Do you all have any tips on activities to do yourself, instead of consuming content all the time?

I'm pretty sick of my content addiction, like watching youtube or netflix all the time. I would rather be spending my time otherwise so figured fun things are the best to start. Do you have tips for fun things to do? Or how I could search for them?...

I started just with a 2 bay nas that I had a few VMs on... then it spiraled. Back with PIs were cheap it was fun to spin up new stuff all the time. Now an N100 mini-pc is way more cost effective long term, plus you get to start dipping into VMs, LXC, docker, etc.

Not to mention Home Assistant is an entire hobby in itself. 4 more aqara devices just came for me today.

I do feel like I should second the comment that it isn't cheap, but you can do things in bits and pieces that don't make it feel like you're spending your life savings.

The zigbee bulbs I've had the best luck with are Innr, although they are kind of pricy. Ikea bulbs are good for the price, but every one I have, has very loud coil whine when off. I had some on bedside stands and had to move them to other rooms. Sengled are nice when they work, I've had issues with them dropping off my network.

Both Ikea and Innr are also repeaters, Sengled does not do repeaters in their bulbs. Neither Ikea or Innr are exactly cheap, but they've been the most solid for me.
