Weekly Update 483

Building out an IoT environment is a little like the old Maslow's Hierarchy of Needs. All the stuff on the top is only any good if all the stuff on the bottom is good, starting with power. This week, I couldn't even get that right, but thankfully, sparky to rescue and ensuite underfloor heating disconnected, and we now have reliable power again. On top of that is the layer that has increasingly been my nemesis - the network. Two days after recording, I've just spent the better part of the entire day making a much more concerted effort to adjust channel and power settings on APs, lock clients that don't move to the APs that make the most sense, and generally just screw around with it until stuff worked. And then I turned off a circuit, turned it back on again, and all hell broke loose 😭
