- XorNot 6mo agoA router which can be switched off sometimes, or break and delay replacement. I don't want all my IoT devices going down because they can't resolve hostnames - that's why I set fixed IP addresses for them. It means how they communicate with each other and my network is well-defined, and works provided they have Layer 2 (easy to keep up - it works provided any 1 AP is online, whereas my internet or the router providing it can vanish).
