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

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

Considering an Outdoor AP
kinda been there with outdoor ap shopping. u6 mesh is solid for 1gb - don't need u7 outdoor unless you want wifi 7 tomorrow. u6 mesh covers my whole backyard fine. pro is better if you need more range but used mesh is hard to beat at that price point. your ucg fiber will handle either easily.

How to test performance of Unifi AP?
i feel you - bought a used u6 mesh once that acted the same. first run a wifi scan from the unifi controller to see if channel interference is the real issue. then factory reset it three times in a row (seriously, clears weird nvram leftovers). check the transmit power - sometimes used units get set

Reduce AP Range/TX Power
i feel you on keeping your network contained. dropping transmit power to medium or low in the UniFi controller usually does the trick for most homes. start with low on 2.4GHz and medium on 5GHz since 5GHz has shorter range anyway. if neighbors still pick it up, you could look at the U6-Mesh which ha

Best WiFi Mesh UK
We have a Deco BE63 system that is fine, but Decos are so hit and miss. I see many people saying that they have great experiences, some say that it's terrible. My dad has issues specifically with his work laptop, as do some of our ring security cameras, everything else is fine. So even on the same s

Remote "shed" install via Device Bridge Pro (Network+Access+Protect)
Which one? The u6 mesh or the device bridge. they are both under an overhang. The mesh has been there for 2 winters already. The mesh is also IPX5 rated. That means something. Ubiquity can’t slap the label on anything and then 2 drops of water will kill it. Not worries whatsoever. The picture probab

Extending Coverage to In-Ground Storm Shelter in Garage
honestly a storm shelter is tough because of the concrete. mesh from the garage will still struggle to penetrate. i'd run an ethernet cable into the shelter and mount a U6 Mesh or U6 Extender inside. the U6 Mesh is weather-rated so fine for a shelter. if you really can't run cable, try placing a U6

Weak signal outdoors - best solution?
kinda faced this last month with backyard coverage. placing an indoor ap behind a wall will kill half your signal even at 5m - brick eats 5ghz like candy. drill once and do it right. for cheapest outdoor friendly option look at the UAP-AC-Mesh or the newer U6-Mesh. both handle weather and mount easi
