Are Ubiquiti APs Worth It?

I find the Ubiquiti APs that I have experience with (U6 Pro, U6 Mesh, and U7 In Wall) to be vastly superior to the Fios provided APs in terms of stability and consistency of high throughput. Vastly.

Introducing: U7 Mesh

People, it's not a downgrade to U6 Mesh. U6 Mesh had 4x4, but, weaker omnidirectional antennas.This one has a dedicated antenna for the wireless backhaul: 5GHz, directional, 10 dBi. The installation instructions show that you have to point the 2 U7 Mesh devices, with the Ubiquiti logo towards each o

Considering an Outdoor AP

U7 Outdoor would be best. U6 Mesh apparently has a design defect that lets water in over time and it corrodes and dies. https://www.reddit.com/r/Ubiquiti/comments/1s1or4w/avoid_u6_mesh_these_have_a_design_flaw_that/

IPx5 my rear end 🥲 Had it on my garage for 2 years and 6 months through all sorts of crazy weather, but a light drizzle last week killed it

Unfortunately this is a known issue with these. You gotta give them hats. https://www.reddit.com/r/Ubiquiti/comments/1hxauih/u6_mesh_waterproof_hats/

PSA Mesh is fine for a lot of people

It’s not that UniFi is a bad mesh system. It’s that if you’re already resorting to mesh instead of wired backhaul, IMO there are better solutions that are easier to use and cost less. Eero is widely known as basically a completely bulletproof mesh system. High throughput, excellent range, incredibly

PSA Mesh is fine for a lot of people

I've also set up UI for myself and multiple other users I think you're falling into the same trap a lot of us do here, and it's understandable. YOU set those up for other people, so the baseline for those is actually YOUR technical knowledge, not theirs. We have a lot of technical knowledge on here,

U6 Mesh melts

Normally, I would not expect them to. In the case of the U6 Mesh, there have been many, many documented cases of the same types of failures; water ingress from the top where the LED ring is and an electrical/component failure that results in the burn through hole like pictured. Some people got lucky

Invested in UniFi APs to solve my WiFi headaches, but they persist - need help!

If the U6 Mesh is wired in, then I have seen behavior where phones suddenly drop off wifi or the wifi says "no internet" on the phone when an Ethernet cable to the AP is bad and causing intermittent behavior. It could also be misconfigured settings for your wifi network. If a cable is flaky, the wir

Wifi man

If you can get Ethernet to other parts of your home I have had great luck with U6 long range and a U6 Mesh Pro for the outside coverage. If you have a floor plan you can ask on the Ubiquiti subreddit for planning help. They do have a mesh mode but the speeds are around 200mbps for me. I need to run

Outdoor application

i feel you on the yard coverage. since you already have full ubiquiti system, look at the U6 Mesh or U7 Outdoor - both are weather rated and have good 360 degree coverage. if you really want corner position with directional pattern, the UBB or Building Bridge units are overkill but work. honestly th
