How large is your home network getting?

I have been wondering if my network is getting too big or am I just the local nerd.

Currently my ISP is Google Fiber and I have the TV setup too.

Here is my list of network devices.
Wired
- 1 Cisco Managed Switch
- 3 Regular Switches
- 1 VoIP Adapter
- 1 Server 2012 (essentials role with media)
- 2 Linux minecraft Servers (one vanilla and the other a feed the beast)
- 1 HTPC (with dvr but not used anymore)
- 4 desktop computers (3 windows 7, and one testing windows 10)
- 1 PS3
- 1 Xbox 360
- 1 Blue-ray Player
- 1 Google Network Storage box (this holds the DVR and TV tuner + coaxial networking)
- 2 Google TV boxes (currently on the Coaxial networking but support Ethernet)
Wireless
- 1 Wii
- 3 Smartphones
- 2 Tablets
- 1 Laptop
- 1 Netbook
- 1 Printer

So in total I have
10 computers
3 game systems
7 network appliances
3 media devices
5 android devices

25 things pulling a network address and 3 that don't
I have plans for adding 4 more computers to the network and who knows what else. (Those are for after I finally can get a Server Rack)

Dose anyone else have a network getting as crazy as mine?
 
I'll weigh in, there is never any that is 'too big' (at least all of this crap isn't on at the same time though) :p
What model of Cisco switch is that?

Network Equipment
Ubiquiti EdgeRouter Pro w/ 8 GB RAM
Cisco 2811 (768D/256F Callmanager Express + AIM-CUE Unity Module)
Cisco 7965G + 6941 IP Phones, ATA 186 & ObiHai SIP Adapter
Cisco 2960G-8TC, 3560E-48TS
Cisco WLC 2504, 3502i, 1142, 2x 1131, 2x 1242
Cisco ASA 5505 Security+ (1024D/2048F) w/ AIP-SSC-5 IPS Module
Nortel 5530,5520, 2x 5510 + RPS Unit
2x Trendnet 8 Port Unmanaged Gig Switch
2x Opengear PDU
Google Fiber Storage + Network + 2x TV boxes

PCs
4x PCs, Fileserver w/ 10GbE, ESXi Server(CUCM7, Win2k12R2 Domain Controller, Cisco vWLC)

Wireless Devices
3x Tablets, 3x Phones, 1x Foscam IP Camera, 1x Printer, 3x Laptops

Gaming
Xbox One, PS4, PS3, PS TV, Wii U, Wii, 2x Xbox 360, PS VITA, Nintendo DSi XL


I'd pull the DHCP table but need to reconfigure the Google Fiber gear in my network, their router box has the least amount of features I've seen in a while, and the video stream of the TV does not function without having IPv6 be propagated through the WAN facing device. :(

I reall want to build my old Dell desktop into a vanilla minecraft server for 10 people or so, but I'm not sure if my bandwidth would allow, or if Comcast would approve hehehe.. Google Fiber seems like the dream ISP.. :D

Not sure who this is directed at but I know you wouldn't want to trade electric bills with me. 3 years ago our electric bill averaged out to $400 a month :eek:. We don't have anything like central air, pool, hot tub, etc... that are typical heavy electric users. Had solar installed, now our electric bill averages $100/month.
