Topology suggestions for a home network please

@eiger3970-0 cool.
FYI: 55 degrees is nothing for a CPU - that is WELL within the normal operating temperature, so there is no need to actively cool that. For pi’s you should not worry about temperatures before the mid/high 70’ies - because higher than that it will start throttling itself to avoid overheating (costing you some performance).Unless you do heavy 24/7 compute on the cpu there is no need for anything but a good passive radiator

@keyser yes I've heard over 100C is when you should worry.
However 50C+ the Desktop slows and can freeze, so the external fan bringing the temp down to 35-20C lets the Desktop run smoothly.
Maybe if I wasn't running KVM and VMs I would get more out of the Pi5 desktop. -
It depends on the CPU. And how/where you're measuring it!

@stephenw10
For the record, the network is today working 100% magically.
I might buy a 3 NIC PCIe card to resolve any potential IP conflicts. Just a guess as the tcpdump was a bit detailed.
