Which head end in a nightmare project for my first client

Hi All,

Going wrap this thread up, many thanks for eveyone involved in pointing and nudging me in the right direction.

I sit here on Day 1 of go live arounf 1pm in the afternoon, having spent a large portion of the morning fire fighting rogue setups etc. God this place has more routers than a datacenter it would appear.

pfSense is running well although not load balanacing anything as yet, people really arent noticing since the main line is 500M+ down and 50M up. Those with statics on the lesser VDSL lines are now seeing improved performance now i can direct traffic away from them.

A few small internal routing issues to be ironed out like traffic inside one of the vlans cant resolve to their internal webserver, but im sure i’ll be able to figure it out. Access to the website hosted from outside works (but slow) access to the website internally from behind their router seems to be not working … weird.

Anyway again thanks to everyone on this huge learning curve opportunity. Anyone starting their own business i dont suggest implementing a system you have no idea about … but hey it forced the learning curve like never before lol.
