I’ve had it…

Two weeks ago I was at microcenter and walked in the ubiquiti aisle. I left with a dream machine SE, cable Internet, and U7 Pro. I replaced my ZenWifi BQ16 network with this and within a few days after experiencing a perfect network I went back to the store to buy more ubiquiti: U7 Pro XGS and Pro X

A+ bufferbloat test

Yeah Ubiquiti does not recommend enabling Smart Queues if your internet speed is more than 300 Mbps. I got an A+ with my UDM SE. Smart Queues off and 940/500 Mbps internet but that Waveform site only measured about 500/500.

AT&T fiber issues

I have the BGW320.I only ever used it in passthrough mode to my Ubiquiti UDM-SE.Has been rock solid with the exception of a copuple of times where for whatever reason passthough fails and then the network in general sufferes as you describe.

Unifi dream machine special edition. Is it still a viable piece of hardware or is there something better?

Depends on what you're after. From what I've heard the UCG Fibre is a better router at a lower price, but weaker NVR since it uses SSD, fewer ports built in. Also has slightly more RAM but a more powerful CPU. If you don't care about NVR, then there's better choices. But if you want everything in a

Good router / power outlet rebooter that automatically reboots when the internet goes down?

I have a Unifi Dream Machine-SE paired with this Unifi power strip that reboots selected devices whenever the WAN goes down. I don't have it set up to send alerts, but the router alerts functions are very robust so I'm sure you can configure it for these events.

Updating Home Network for 10gigabit internet

First, $40 a 10gbit internet is a DEAL. And especially if it’s more reliable, I’d take that all day. Most folks pay more than that for 1 gig service. That being said, I wouldn’t rush into upgrading your internal network unless there is a true reason to do so. Many of us here in this subReddit are te

UDM SE Dead: Fixed!

Sadly you, and many others here, in the western world, are not cognizant about life in a rogue dictatorship where basic human rights are unheard of. I know people who used to live behind the Iron Curtain and their stories are nothing short of horror. Unfortunately, we in the West, in our unlimited d

Advice Please

I'd probably put another 24 port patch panel between the UDM-SE and the core switch. Yes, you want an SE for the flexibility, and there are lots of good uses for those ports. Low-bandwidth uses for UDM-xxx 8 port integral switch Also has good discussion of the technical shortcomings of the 8 port AI

Unifi home security system. Please let me know if i've missed anything.

The UDM SE is a nice platform. I have a few in service. Be aware that there isn’t a WiFi AP in the gateway so you will need one or more APs to be powered as well as your doorbell and cameras. Check the PoE budget to see if it has enough for everything. Also, the gigabit switch in that platform is re

Bell fibe and ubiquiti dream machine SE

I understand all the hype around this setup, but I will be quite negative here. As other mentionned, you'll get the Gigahub 2.0 which can handle by itself an 8 Gbit symetrical plan with PPPoE. Problem is that today, PPPoE passthrough has a huge FW bug which limits the throughput around 600 Mbit/s. I
