Is Amplifi being phased out?

Amplifi Alien routers are not being replaced. Recently tried to RMA one and they accepted the sent in one but had nothing to send me back so I got upgraded to UniFi equipment.

2 Amplifi Alien 6 Router for sell - $250 both, shipped and PP Fees Covered

And that’s what they want. I don’t expect anything from AmpliFi to be announced. The best way for them would be new firmware to make Alien works with UniFi Network. Aliens are available new in EU for 120€. https://eu.store.ui.com/eu/en/category/all-amplifi-alien/collections/amplifi-alien/products/am

Walmart still has an Amplifi system for sale.

The Amplifi line from Ubiquiti is actually a good reliable WiFi and Mesh system for the average home user. I had two of the Amplifi Aliens and they were great devices very good WiFi coverage and easy to setup. I never had any issues out of them.

Nest increases subscription price, here comes Ubiquiti!

Full disclosure, I run a full Unifi setup and use Protect. But yes, you are correct, Ubiquiti has a checkered past where they made decisions to abruptly discontinue support for their products. I use to manage an old Unifi Video system when they abruptly sunsetted it for Protect that you could not ru

More LAN ports on AmpliFi Alien router? Need switch recommendation

If it’s a dead switch you’ll know instantly. All devices connected to it will stop working. We have these thrown in barns and all sorts, they’re reliable as anything. I’d say the amplifi alien is less reliable than the above switch. If you want to throw yourself into UniFi definitely go for it but d

The new T-Mobile/Ubiquiti 5G Router looks very familiar (Amplifi Alien)

edited after watching the release video I’ve been a vocal advocate for Ubiquiti’s AmpliFi Alien routers for years—constantly recommending them to friends and online communities for their seamless mesh performance, Wi-Fi 6 capabilities, and that sleek, minimalist design. They truly felt like a game-c

AmpliFi Alien EOL ...

Not sure what version of Amplifi Alien routers you might be looking at but I own and use two and the last firmware release notes on the Amplifi site show this for the latest release notes. My two Aliens have firmware versions of 4.0.5 which is two releases later than the 4.0.3 listed on the site. Bo

Dream Router 5G Max - disappointment

Almost positive you never had the AMPLIFI Alien or even seen one in person. It’s FAR from cheap build! I’m thrilled with the Dream Router 5G Max design as the mini Dream router 7 screen is a major disappointment. I have the Alien and the UI is brilliant with relevant information. I was upset when my

Finally joined the club with the UDR7

I’ve had the AMPLIFI Alien, only for its radio antennas to simply fail on me. Randomly the WiFi just stopped working - and I could only connect to network with the device that was physically touching the router. Replaced it with UDR7 and holy damn - it’s everything I’ve missed with AMPLIFI. Starting
