Totally loving the traffic stats. Nothing on pfSense that I tried was anywhere near as easy to browse through.

Good point about the direct links, I've removed them.

Remember gents, take a backup copy of your DB from time to time.

It's a very easy system to restore or move from one machine to another, providing you have a backup file

ChrisD. · 12 Dec 2017 at 15:52

Does the autobackup take a DB copy? I'm presuming it does. I have a daily task for it, I'll probably set up a cron job to scp them to my NAS and then onto my OneDrive from there.

I keep an offsite copy of my autobackups. You can restore a controller from a bare metal install with an autobackup.

bledd · 12 Dec 2017 at 16:44

@ChrisD. yes it does, but only on the device.

I just take a manual copy of the settings before & after I make a change / upgrade

Reboot the controller, I've had this a few times lately when doing firmware updates on the AP's.

Sorry for my slow reply, been working away.

I've got the controller running on a Win 2012 server. I rebooted the whole server and they still show as disconnected.

That's what I thought. I'll create a cron job (unsure if possible as it's a cut down Debian OS IIRC) to SCP the backups to my NAS and then sync them with OneDrive.

Hmm. If you SSH into one of the devices so do 'info' what does it show for the status?

You haven't recently changed the IP address on your 2012 server have you?

ChrisD. · 14 Dec 2017 at 09:43

Is there a way to see what was using bandwidth at a specific time in the past?

Rensin · 14 Dec 2017 at 15:00

Not sure if this is against the rules (can't see any Ubiquiti items on OCUK)

Can anyone recommend a reseller? Amazon seem to be out of stock

cheers.

bledd · 14 Dec 2017 at 15:04

They list them on their own page under UK Distributors..

had seen them mate, which is prefered for best CS, delivery ect.

Simon42 · 14 Dec 2017 at 15:43

I've used the first three listed for UK Distributors and Master Resellers and they've all been good for service/delivery with accurate stocks levels.

I only buy from Amazon as a last resort as the official resellers can handle RMAs for older equipment and various other issues.

I can only sing praises about the reseller who shares a part of its name with a motherboard size.

Is says unreachable.

I’ve not changed the server IP. I noticed in the controller settings the hostname field was empty, I don’t remember looking at it before. I put the servers IP address in but it didn’t help.

Apologies if this has been asked a 100 times already,

Would a US-60w switch be enough for:
2x AC Pro both PoE
Cloudkey PoE

Approximately 20 devices (5 wired)

You are allowed to name competitors providing OcUK don't sell the product.

Does it show the correct IP address? Can you ping the controller from the AP?

You could also try 'set-inform http://ip.of.ubnt.controller:8080/inform' and see what that does.
