*** Official Ubiquiti Discussion Thread ***

Yeh from what im reading it falls into TFTP mode and some have suggested the following reset. Im just going on what the forums are saying no personal experience of it but if it saves you an rma then great.

Unplugging the switch and holding the reset button for 40+ seconds and then powered up with nothing connected and held the reset for 15+ seconds reset me to factory and I was able to adopt again. Thank you so much for the info!

Was that the reset you tried?
 
How can I remove a static route and networks from the controller config when I no longer have a USG?

Edited to say it was possible using the iOS app.
 
Hello,

What is the latest in terms of having to pay extra charges if purchasing from the EU store to UK? I am looking to purchase few wifi 6 pro access point and can see they already charge the VAT.

How good are the pros compared to LR APs.

Thanks
 
Ive had a few bits and bobs from the EU UI Store and not had any extra charges and it normally arrived next day once I had the shipping notication as well.

All charges are added on at checkout and there is nothing more to pay on delivery.

The biggest difference between the Pro and the LR is the LR is 4x4 on both 2.4GHz and 5GHz and the Pro is 2x2 on 2.4GHz and 4x4 on 5GHz. So if you have lots of IoT 1x1 or 2x2 devices that will use 2.4GHz then get the LR. If you mainly have or are intending to have WiFi6 and high performance WiFi5 devices then get the Pro.

I have tried both at home and there is very little real-world difference so unless you have LOTS of older 2.4GHz devices the Pro is probably the way to go.
 
Ordered 2 U6 Pro's late on Sunday evening.. were delivered this morning

Will be interested to see the performance difference between my AC-Pro & the U6
 
WiFi 6 MESH Point, looks like the current FlexHD, which I already have. Am I going to see much benefit in the home upgrading to these? I suspect not.

The real benefits of WiFi6 come with either lots and lots of IoT devices that would otherwise slow down a fast access point and, obviously, with WiFi6 clients. So if you don't have either of those then no, you'll probably not see a huge benefit. Alternatively, if you do have those type of devices then you could see a decent improvement in overall speeds.

Could be worth it then. IoT we have:
2 x Nest
2 x iRobot
NEFF Oven
NEFF Microwave
SONOS, etc
2 x Garmin watches, etc
 
That’s not a lot of IoT. I did a home retrofit at the end of last year with WiFi light switches, power socket switches, a dawn/dusk ceiling lighting system, robot vacuum cleaners on 3 floors and more than 40 Sonos speakers. I think we counted over 250 1x1 2.4GHz clients. And they were all constantly sending and receiving traffic.
 
Hi guys. Need a bit of help here. Guy has asked me to setup his Edgerouter x Sfp after he reset it. I haven’t worked with these before so on a learning curve here.

He has A BT home hub in his home and a large office and shed outside. A cable comes from the BT hub to the Edgerouter in the office. Connected to the Edgerouter is a desktop computer, a Ubiquiti AP and a server which retrieves information from specialised equipment.

Now the bt hub is on the ip range of 192.168.1.* etc but the equipment like the server is on another IP range 192.168.168.*

The desktop computer connects to the server via installed software to retrieve the real-time data from it but at the same time, can access the Internet via the home hub. Basically it can communicate between the two IP sets.

The Ubiquiti AP is used to access the server via a phone app.

Is there a simple way of doing this? Been going through the UI and some guides but I don’t know if I have to setup a vlan or I can have the ports running under a DHCP or whatever.

Bit confused how to get the desktop computer to be on the same address range as the server and surf the net also.

Cheers
 
It is located around 70m away and they have a number of devices already wired to it and using it’s wifi and they don’t want it changed. Hassle, it works and when BT send a new router out, they just plug and play. They don’t want it changed and that’s that. Unfortunately

The company that installed the server installed the Edgerouter as part of their system as it makes their installation easier without interfering with the owners current network and Internet setup.

What network set up handled that? Just out of interest
