Do you foresee issues running the business from Slovenia or do you plan on spending significant time in the US going forward? I’d expect that this requires at least a Slovenian subsidiary for day-to-day operations and could even lead to tax liabilities for the entire structure in Slovenia - were you able to rule this out?

God am I happy my cable company hates me for buying my own modem and using my own Wi-Fi 6 network. I wouldn’t bring a piece of Xfinity equipment Into my home willingly.
Companies that lock down hardware and software only encourage folks like you to learn way more about the systems than you would have if everything was in the open. When will they learn not to challenge the ingenuity of intrepid users? Once you place the information on the internet all of the dumb games the companies paid for goes up in smoke. Nicely executed work around!
Oh nice an "EU citizen" dutch sandwiching just for tax and privacy reasons to US. 🙄 Your whole plea of "why" is nothing short of flaws andd incorrect assumptions with sadly no thought for economy ethics and other consequences like IP, most probably and regretfully having turned a blind eye by your (local) lawyers who drool to work with an US investor?.... as if there are no EU incorporated successful startups. Having had a first look at the product from your videos, it is pretty niche in my experience, but anyway, best of luck.
I am trying to build a 3u server rack with truenas. My goal is to have 10 bays but would like to run some VM as well. Do you recommend amd vs intel chip? And what motherboard would to recommend as well? Thanks
Up until May you could open UK company for £13 ( now £50). I takes up to 24h to receive all docs. I didn't need lawyars. Articles of assosiation in the UK is always ready made, for free. And the UK in not in the EU😅.
When my cable company replaced our box with the new stuff, they stuck me with two separate units, the router, that takes in the coax signal, and splits it to Ethernet and a landline, and a separate Wireless router for wifi.. the wifi router didnt even come with a web interface.. And I couldn't even swap to my own wifi router because the cable company provided equipment was locked together..
Is this a joke?! I was expecting some $1 culmination for the company setup in USA. $7000 and three months is neither quick, not cheap. I guess it is easier when you are spending not your own money. In UK you can all the described to setup a limited company in less than a day for less than £100. All provided by easy to access government websites. And that everything, registration with company house, doing all the share holder and persons with significant control stuff, all the initial meeting minutes etc etc. all provided by simple templates free of charge by the companies house in UK. Then you register for VAT and get bank account, again with a few clicks. I think you went with a flow, because all the new business stuff is so all exciting all of a studden with all that investor money burning the pockets. Don't forget I vestors will want their money back with significant return at the end of a day...
So you booted a binary firmware found "somewhere on the internet" on your router ... how sure are you exactly that this wasn't containing malware or rootkits that go behind your back ...
and just to concur - i also swapped out the crappy router from my isp provider for something that i have full control of. i just don't run random firmwares that i find on the internet.
This is destruction of property and/or unauthorized access of a computer device, both of which are misdemeanors. You don't own the device, the device is leased to you for the duration of the contract. You can request by law the PPPoE login details and use your own device, but you are breaking the law by tampering with your ISP's device.
Odd that your ISP would tell you you can't just set it to modem only mode. I called my ISP and asked them if I could just disable all router features of the device they provided to me. Not only did they tell me it was possible, but they also provided me with the steps and credentials necessary to do it myself.
What royally Kix me off about the new router. As I can't just enter it directly from my computer by entering in the ip like I used to be able to. Now I have to go to their website log into my account to log in to my router to make any changes I need to and it's a pain i* t** a** considering I have difficulty logging into my account because they will not let me use the password I want to use and instead insist I use some 25 digit long random string of letters and numbers instead of entering in a phrase with a few numbers that I can remember. And even after doing so when I put the password in right after changing it that still won't let me into the account. It's a good thing I'm going to be moving in another year because I don't know how much longer I can put up with their astery this is Cox cable by the way........ And where I'm moving to I might actually have to get starlink. And considering what Cox is charging now it's about the same price for starLink.
As someone who works in the tech team of an ISP, I can assure you that TR069 is primarily used for support and setting up a router, and there is nothing nefarious about it. TR069, also known as CPE WAN Management Protocol (CWMP), allows ISPs to remotely manage and configure customer premises equipment (CPE) like routers, modems, and gateways. This protocol helps in automating the configuration of devices, firmware upgrades, and troubleshooting, leading to a better and more consistent user experience. It ensures that your router is always running the latest firmware, configured correctly, and can be quickly restored to working order if issues arise. The use of TR069 improves service reliability and reduces the need for on-site technician visits. Security and privacy are prioritized in its implementation, adhering to strict standards to protect user data.
My Xfinity router has had a bug for years ever since they forced us to use their app to manage port forwarding that locks you out of ever forwarding a port again if you port forward that port to a device that randomized it's mac address. I wish I could use a different firmware.
I know nothing of those things, im for now just a soft dev, but does this means that """basically""", to be connected to the internet by our isp we just need this piece ? and a way to make it send and receive the same infos it usually does with the rest of the router ?
The same when starting a company in the UK. Anyone living in the EU knows that having idea and getting investors for it in EU is as good as impossible not even taking about all the taxes So i fully understand ms why you did it
