Update completly crashed my network
Used Ubiquity for 4 years, always had auto update on everything. UDM, then UDM:SE and now UCG:Fibre… and UNAS Pro.. all on Official release channel. Never had an issue. No issue with 4.4.9 either.

What router is everyone using?
I’m using a UniFi Dream Machine Pro, it’s about 5 years old but it’s a total beast, but it wasn’t cheap. I wanted something that was part of ecosystem with separate Wi-Fi access points.

Meraki Firewall Alternatives for Small Locations?
+1 for Ubiquiti. There is plenty there gear can't do, but 99% of it is plug-and-play, performant, and reliable. The orgs I work for have plenty of cash to throw around, and we're still opting to roll Unifi gear where we were previously deploying Meraki.I have Ubiquiti (UDM Pro) at home and colo, and

How Much Maintenance for Home Deployment?
My home network has grown over the years, and to be honest, I wouldn't choose anything else but Ubiquiti. I have a 1.1Gbps symmetric fibre broadband. This feeds into a Unifi UDM Pro with a 6TB drive installed (for the Network Video Recorder). The UDM Pro is great because it has SFP (for future upgra

UDM Pro Max vs. Cloud Gateway Fiber
I’ll chime in as someone who is actively transitioning fully to ubiquiti. Just got ATT fiber to my home, so I went with the Cloud Gateway Fiber. I originally planned to “ball out” and go enterprise grade everything, but went with a smaller form factor to minimize its footprint. And I knew I wouldn’t

UDM Beast - UWC London
When they announced it at the conference, they said one of their mentalities is reducing decision fatigue. That they want their choices to be the "UDM core" (I forget its actual name, but a very powerful one, more powerful than the beast), or the UDM beast. If you need the "UDM core" you know why, a

Gateway suggestions?
You believe the UDM SE is overkill but the UCG Fiber is not? If you are simply looking for new hardware I would say get the UCG Fiber. It’s a very capable device that may be on par with the UDM devices. Maybe better because of the updated internals.. Don’t let the small footprint fool you. As far as

Zen vs. Plusnet vs. Sky for Openreach Full Fibre 900 — Which is the best balance of cost, service, and stability?
I keep my work backups at home so I have Zen both in the office and at home and they have been amazing. When issues crept up tech support spoke to me in a way that they knew that I knew what was going on rather than from a script… We had a series of high ping issues which affected both routers and l
