#Ubiquiti never ceases to amaze me with how simple yet powerful it can be. I needed to route specific traffic from a specific device on the local network over a VPN. In #Unifi Dream Machine Pro, the VPN and routing setup was done in 5 minutes and very intuitively. 👌
Just deployed two new #Ubiquiti#unifi#U7-Pro access points to my home network to replace a #UAP-AC-LR and a #UAP-FlexHD. So far they seem to be working well.
I'm doing wireless mesh between the AP connected to the router and the AP in the back of the house. The connection isn't amazing (only getting 70mbps down from the meshed AP) but that's better than before.
These new AP are quite a bit bigger and heavier than my old ones.
I'm thinking about switching from a #Ubiquiti#EdgeRouter to something with #OPNsense on it. My home Internet can do 1gbps/45mbps although this fall I'll probably end up with symmetric 1.2gbps. I'm upgrading my access points to WiFi 7 (the new Ubiquiti APs) so the WiFi will support the throughput even if our devices don't yet.
The frustrating thing with the EdgeRouter is that it's basically been abandoned the last few years by its manufacturer. They are still selling plenty of them but... 1/n
Any prosumer grade network equipment that is worth metioning? Still saving some mony to upgrade our current network at home where a mix of TP-Link and ISP hardware (from #Proximus) is used. It must support vlan-tagging.
I know that #Ubiquiti exist and I have it at my parent's place, but I'm curious if there are any good alternatives out there
It’s boiling down to #Ubiquiti vs #Mikrotik. #UniFi has more appeal, the app looks nice but I don’t need WiFi router (I already have 3 TP-Link Deco in a mesh) and the prices are hell. #Mikrotik looks about right, but man… WinBox looks like shit and the learning curve is probably steep… SEND HELP!🤡
I bought a #Ubiquiti Express the other day to extend my home wifi network, and for the life of me i do not understand how this company stays in business. The experience of trying to set up this device is infuriating. It refuses to see my wired network (which my previous AP saw just fine), and so I can't set it up at all. I've wasted a significant part of my evening fighting with what should be a 60 second process to "see that wifi? extend it via your LAN connection.”
#Surveillance#Cybersecurity#Privacy#Ubiquiti: "Users of Ubiquiti wifi products are reporting that they are suddenly getting security camera footage, photos, and access to other people’s devices when logging into their own accounts. A user also noted that when they tried to login to their own network, they were given access to 88 Ubiquiti devices from another user’s account.
“Security Issue: Cloud Site Manager presented me your consoles, not mine,” a post on the Ubiquiti forums posted under 24 hours ago reads. “Consoles” are internet-connected Ubiquiti products, which can be anything from WiFi routers to smart doorbells to office security card-reading systems to security cameras. That post notes that when the user logged in, “I was presented with 88 consoles from another account. I had full access to these consoles, just as I would my own. This was only stopped when I forced a browser refresh.”"
Becoming increasingly stressed out over a couple of project deliveries that need to get done before Xmas. Having to spend most of the day debugging our #Unifi setup did NOT help!
That thing feels like a house of cards. After running their products for close to five years both home and at work I’m rather disappointed with #Ubiquiti
Pondering snapping up one of these next gen lite #Unifi gateways when they go up for sale, since my old USG3 is no longer getting firmware updates, seemingly.
OTOH I'm still running the old creaky CloudKey v1 and at least one major rev behind of the Controller/Network app. /And/ I might get some of their cameras sometime. So maybe I should just suck it up and get a Dream Machine or other NVR-capable AIO unit.
