Following up on my IPv6 issues, Ubiquiti has provided me with custom firmware for my UDW and on the first lot of testing this looks to be working now.

It's really good news and I have also provided the requested info as well. So interested to know what they have found/changed, waiting on feedback on that front.

More of a greed than need question!
I currently have 2 AC-LR and thinking about changing them for 2 U6+, would I gain any benefit or should I just stick to what I've got? There's only 2 of us in the house so not a huge amount of kit connecting.

Personally I wouldn't bother unless I needed to.
If I had an AP fail I'd buy a WiFi 6 AP to replace it or if my the throughout I was currently getting was too low after properly tuning the config and if the clients could support it then I'd look to upgrade.
But I wouldn't replace WiFi 5 kit that's working fine with WiFi 6.

Purchased the Ubiquiti U7-Pro over the weekend to replace my Netgear Wireless router. Its been giving me endless problems, randomly drops the connection for a few seconds. Messed round with a few settings, still have the same problem 
Might have to send it back and get the U6-Pro instead as it more mature with firmware.

Improvements
- Added ability to download Inspection Logs. Currently only available through the local web UI, support for downloading via Site Manager will come in a future release.
- Improved backup restore process.
- Removed PPPoE interfaces from the dropdown when configuring NAT routing, this will return in a future release.
- Updated translations.
Bugfixes
- Fixed the inability to remove sites on Multi-Site setups in rare cases.
- Fixed an issue where WireGuard users were not removed when deleting the VPN server.
- Fixed an issue where an invalid meshing configuration could be provisioned to Access Points.
- Fixed an issue where L2TP, DS-Lite, and U-LTE failover networks were shown under NAT from interfaces.

"The custom-built firmware includes improvements to automatically set the default route to the DHCPv6 server, enhancing resiliency in environments where RA(Router Advertisement) is absent from ISP side.
Our development team will be bringing these improvements in future UniFi OS releases. We appreciate your understanding and patience as we work to implement this improvement.
If you have any additional questions, please let us know here.
Best,
UI Support

So the reason IPv6 failed on the UDW / UDM was the ISP missing the RA part in IPv6, so this should be patched into future updates and then other people with ISPs who present IPv6 in a similar method should then work.
Just ordered a NVR with the G4 bullet promotion, already got a G4 bullet, but on my cloud key. Wanting a camera over the drive as crime is becoming a problem in the surrounding areas.
Fingers crossed re choice as did wonder if NVR due to be updated, I know G4 has been superseded by the G5.

Log in to receive UNVR Special Offer - G4 Bullet Camera.
I'm tempted to order one, I've put the SE back on the wall and the HDD is vibrating and the long haired general can hear it. I could rack the NVR in the garage with the rest of my lab gear.

G4 Bullet free with every NVR purchase, or G4 Pro free with every NVR Pro purchase (maximum of 2 per customer)
Thanks
It's an interesting offer as it makes the NVR stupidly cheap if you want one, but as an SE owner, I can buy 3 x G5 turrets for the same money, so probably not for me. If I didn't have an SE and wanted to get into the Protect side, or was upgrading from a CK, it makes sense though.Still sucks having a single drive in the SE though, unless you have some form of a backup. I know the RAID in an NVR is not a backup, but it does mitigate single disk failures.Thanks
I use Scrypted to back up detections to iCloud, however whilst that was initially rock solid, I've had a few issues over the past few weeks meaning I've had to re-add cameras to Apple Home which removes the recordings.
I use another firewall product for gateway duties, hence NVR thought. I ordered one earlier this afternoon, with G4 camera. So two G4 units now, I may look at a WiFi camera for the back of the garage to capture anything there. Camera internal pointing it the main door.
I TBH would look at other camera options too for sharp night coverage of driveway area.

Yes, but what would suck more is racking the thing on top of servers with 'a fair bit' of redundant local storage just to add RAID for my doorbell and replicate the NVR functions of my SE
Honestly, if they had brought the G5's to market with a comparable feature set to Hikvision's ColorVu, I would be all in, the NVR pitches at the right level functionally, i'm not sure if I want to risk playing the long game in the hope the G6's are better on the current gen NVR's.Budget? What ISP speed?
1gb up/down - £150? Not wanting to go mad just need something to handle the throughput, seen the UCG-Ultra?
