Welcome to Maicke’s site.
This WordPress installation exists mainly because we wanted access to the home behind the Shaw cable modem… Since ‘Shaw’ may change the IP address this is done using “dynamic DNS” service and running the $35 RaspberryPI SBC (version 2B for the technically inclined).
UPDATE: 2026-05
This site has remained accessible after we left shaw.ca (now rogers) and switched to Lightspeed (previously via shaw, now via rogers?). HOWEVER, when we upgraded the connection to 1Gbps/200Mbps it appears that the backend operator (Rogers?) blocked port 80 & 443
While we tried (successfully) to reverse proxy to/from a VPS the rendering of the site was not working as expected… THUS, the site now runs on one of our regular VPS.
This is the default post for a new WordPress site…
