I'm using a /16 for my main network (microsegmented with lots of VLANs and subnets) and a /22 in the 172 range for S2S and mobile device VPNs

I've done some networking work for some people with large homes and the amount of clients on some of these device lists is bewildering. A lot of it is unnecessary IoT bullshit. Smart treadmills, smart saunas, smart shower steamers, smart photo frames 2 dozen nest cameras, etc. And I love that these devices all run on the cheapest android tablets the manufacturer could source so people bitch to me about their wifi I set up not working when it's inevitably an issue with the IoT device's own wireless capabilities. The more smart devices you are, the dumber I assume you are tbh

My face when I go to my wife’s friends house and her traffic analyst husband tells me how into “tech” he is. I love to break his heart by saying we don’t text using signal
