This is an update to a previous story. I moved, and seriously upgraded my home network to a full on 10G dual fiber Data Center. The full story is on my wiki, but I took a spare 17'x11' room in the basement, UniFi'ed the crap out of it, added a bunch of power and AC, and below is the result.
It's a biggish house, and I wanted to go all out, no compromises with this build since this is our "forever" home. I'm also going big into home automation, so I wanted a very reliable network with as many things on Ethernet as I could to free up WiFi spectrum. I'm very pleased with the outcome, my WiFi is providing 400Mbps download speeds.
