Network:Kyau

This serves as a diagram of my physical network at my place of residence. The names used here-in are the names said devices assume on my network for communicational purposes and therefore have translated into the names used when referring to said devices. Current plans/upgrades are however not listed on this page, I have created a separate page for this here.

Please note that this page changes often as it is updated the moment anything on my network changes.

This is CHLOE, reborn as a brand new machine! This is now my primary workstation.

2016/03/15 : Purchased a Razer Naga Chroma to replace current failing Naga.
2016/03/28 : Purchased an EVGA GTX 960 4GB FTW to replace current video card with failing fan (overheating).
2017/07/02 : Purchased a Seagate Backup+ Hub 4TB USB3.0 (Mac/White) drive to replace current on-the-way out Backup+ 4TB.

Galaxy

Template:AndroidSpecs While I do like the Samsung phones quite a bit, the one problem I have had with this phone from the beginning is no root access. This will likely be the last time I purchase a phone without beforehand knowing if it is rootable or not. Sadly my S5 came with the updates already on them that patched all the available root exploits.

2015/08/22 : Purchased this to replace what I thought at the time was a lost Atrix 4G, turns out it was in my glove-box...

Chloe is currently my primary computer, this is the one that I use daily for all of my main computing needs (gaming, programming, media). This computer was purchased/built on 06/2008.

Arch Linux x64_86

Machine Specs
ASUS A8N-SLI Deluxe
AMD Athlon 64 Processor 3700+ (2.2 GHz)
Samsung 2GB (4 x 512MB) DDR 200MHz (PC 3200)
NVIDIA GeForce 6800 GS

This is the combination of the old machines Akuno & Hub merged into one machine in order to consolidate. This is still my server which runs the website you are looking at currently. I have since switched from using FreeBSD over to Arch Linux as my server operating system. I am finding myself using Windows more and more these days on my main machine. It is really nice to have a server that doubles as a workstation as apposed to dual booting into Linux on my main machine.

2013/12/10 : This machine has been decommissioned due to the purchase of a dedicated server at OVH.ca.

Prime

Template:AndroidSpecs Prime is my brand new ASUS Transformer Prime TF201, purchased on 2012/02/15. This device has the sole purpose of replacing the need for a laptop/netbook. Everything I was using my phone for before will now be transferred over to the tablet for added readability. I am still in debate about rooting this device as the bootloader has not been unlocked yet (however was promised by ASUS) so I have no way of officially making a full backup of my device, as such I am skeptical to do anything that can brick it.

2012/10/03 : ASUS releases Jelly Bean update.
2012/02/22 : ASUS has officially announced the bootloader unlock tool, it however sync's with ASUS server's and instantly void's your warranty.
2017/07/04 : This machine has been decommissioned due to the purchase of a Lenovo Thinkpad X220.

Atrix

Template:AndroidSpecs Atrix is my new smartphone I got as a replacement for my old iPhone 3G. Switched over to Android with the Motorola Atrix 4G and never once looked back, I dare say I love this phone (especially now with an ICS ROM on it). I unlocked and rooted this phone roughly 3 hours after I purchased it, thanks to the folks over at xda-developers.

2012/12/10 : Installed CyanogenMod v10 - Hello Jelly Bean.
2015/08/22 : This machine has been decommissioned due to the purchase of a Samsung Galaxy S5.

Akuno is the secondary workstation computer and consequentially also the only computer in the house that runs Windows. This machine hosts the printer and flatbed scanner, as well as taking on the role as the Skype video calling machine. Primary uses of this machine are your typical everyday tasks (email, photos, spreadsheets, web browsing, word processing, etc.) and as such this machine is typically a hand-me-down machine. This computer will most likely be decommissioned soon.

2012/12/02 : This machine has been re-birthed as Dark with some help (via parts) from Hub, which was decommissioned due to noise.
2013/01/01 : This machine has been decommissioned.

Hub

FreeBSD 8-2-RELEASE-p4 (i386)

Machine Specs
GIGABYTE GA-8LD533 Socket 478 Intel
Intel Pentium 4 Northwood (2.8 GHz)
Unknown 1GB (2 x 512MB) DDR 266MHz (PC 2100)
Intel 82845GL GMCH Integrated Video
Western Digital Caviar 160GB 7200RPM ATA-100 Hitachi Deskstar 180GB 7200RPM ATA-100
Sparkle Power FSP200-50PL 200W ATX12V

Hub is the SuperMicro 1U server that I obtained via the Rent-to-Own program at PacificRack.com back in 2006-07 and was finally shipped to my residence after ending my contract with them in 2008. This machine runs my web server, database server, and media streaming server. Initially this also ran a DNS server also, but it has since been removed due to it being hosted off my broadband and no longer being in a colocation facility. Aside from virtual machines that run Windows XP, this machine has never run anything but FreeBSD. ;)

2012/12/02 : This machine has been decommissioned due to noise. In an attempt to quiet down my computer room I will be merging this with Akuno and creating Dark my server.
