U6-Mesh

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,

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

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

Good luck! They didn't do any extended warranties. A handful of people somehow got them replaced out of warranty, no rhyme or reason for it. I was not one of the lucky ones - 4 months out of warranty but only in service for a year.As you discovered, it's a known issue but Ubiquiti still has not owne

Get a U7 Outdoor or Pro version. No idea how they'll last outside since they're too new. But the U6 Mesh has a design flaw that allows water to get inside and Ubiquiti knows about but they don't care. It should've been recalled or at least the warranty extended.There are 3rd party covers for the top

No idea why but they don't offer the extended warranty on the U6-Mesh. Maybe Ubiquiti knew they wouldn't last long after the 1 or 2 year warranty.

Then you're very lucky. And this is the exact reason I will hate on Ubiquiti support as much as I can. No consistency from one rep to another.I was nice and explained what happened. Denied. I then pointed out that there were numerous postings about the same issue. Denied AND they said they were not

Thanks for the good info. I believe I'm isolated from all the utility stuff. My garage is as bare-bones as it gets - other than typical house clutter. I do have a refrigerator in the garage but if that's what is causing this AP to behave this way - oh my! I may try 2.4 but a frustrating compromise.

So, what’s the deal with the U6 Mesh? If you look around online, there are plenty of reports of these units failing from water damage. So what’s actually going on? Here’s my take: The U6 Mesh runs extremely hot... hot enough that it’s brutally uncomfortable to hold. It’s unclear why it was designed
