Edit: I just realized I didn’t specify which Switches were Nintendo ones. I’m sorry.

Currently I live in an apartment with multiple access ports (2 of them in use), and I have them all running through a network switch.

Line 2 is connected to a wifi router which is connected to a second network switch which has a steam deck and 2 old Nintendo Switches™ connected.

Line 3 is connected to a small modem which is connected to a desktop PC.

I want to make a home server soon that also runs Home Assistant, so surely there must be a better setup to have everything actually be in the same network right? If I need any additional hardware let me know.

I can replace the wifi router with one that will actually have more than 2 LAN ports as well if needed.

    I wasn’t sure, since when trying to find devices, the desktop seems to be isolated from everything else.

    Also means I can’t use KDE Connect on it unfortunately, and the Bluetooth mode they have didn’t work either.

    I’m hoping I’ll at least maybe be able to use it on a server in the future if everything is connected right
