I have several domain names, some have websites that I haven't touched in years, some have email that I equally haven't touched in years, and some are just ideas that I never followed through on.

I blog about network stuff, because computer networking is a passion of mine, and I get some okay views on it. Some of the posts are about pretty obscure stuff.

I've been meaning to create a website about good network design geared at home users, and how to make their home network suck less. Strategies on how to run ethernet, whether easy mode or hard mode and the benefits of each, even a subsection on options for renters to do it. Explanations on why your wifi probably sucks and how to improve the situation, etc. Wiki style.

It's a lot of writing and I know a lot about the subject matter, so each article would have a companion deep dive article so you can go deeper into why this or that affects your wifi or home network in the way that it does... Etc. But also have practical tips to avoid problems in the main article. It's an entire concept that I feel like the internet needs, but I have yet to find anyone publishing that kind of content.

Sure, you can get a bunch of technical detail on Wikipedia, but it doesn't really explain the real world consequences of things, just how they work. That's fine if you have an understanding of how things interact, but if you're new, it's just a confusing mess.

I just want to educate people into building better home networks, spending more (and less) money and why you would want to do that, where and when... How to use planning software, etc. Basically, I want to take the entirety of my wireless knowledge and put it out there for anyone to browse and learn from.
