6000 HF Initial Remote Setup - LAN / Internet part

There are many ways to setup an HF remote station and how to handle the LAN / Internet connections.
After decades of me playing around, this is the model I use. You may choose a different layout, but you may also find that works just fine for you. This layout is for someone who is away from their radio for weeks at a time.
In this design, I use a PC local to the Radio (called the Radio PC)
My goals for this layout are:
Reliability
No VPN
Limited internet traffic on the upload stream
Ease of PC setup (you only have to setup 1 PC)
Ease to use it from many locations
Ability to do network maintenance
Ability to upgrade your SmartSDR (and roll back if required)
This is the general layout that has worked for me very well since 2004. You may wish to consider it for your solution.
More is explained in the youtube video.
