Review: Hands down the best WiFi access point I've owned - I have a large 4 bed house with my office and all my servers and network gear in the downstairs corner. No WiFi access point I've tried so far has been able to penetrate enough walls to get WiFi to the opposite side of the house upstairs. I've tried several different solutions to this: 1. Apple Airport Extremes upstairs and downstairs WiFi linked. This kinda worked but the handoff was pretty terrible. Also the upstairs Extreme would often suddenly stop transmitting. 2. Apple Airport Extremes upstairs and downstairs powerline LAN linked. I used a TP-Link AV1200 kit for this. The transfer rates were great and this seemed to work well. But some of the machines upstairs were gaming machines and there were the occasional dropped packets. I'm guessing something with the wiring in this house. 3. Linksys WRT1900ACS. This was much more powerful than the Apple devices and covered almost the whole house from one box in my office. Unfortunately the WiFi would completely crash about once every 24 hours and the unit would need rebooting. So, upon several recommendations I finally went and tried an Ubiquiti unit. Due to the Power-Over-Ethernet I could actually wire this from the office to the centre of the house using one cable. Which kept my wife happy, she wasn't a fan of cables all over the hallway. This one unit covers my whole house and a large proportion of outside the house too. I wired it up and then fled for a work trip for a week. I come back to find the family are happy, it has transferred nearly 200GB to all their devices in my absence and is still completely rock solid. Most of this would have been Netflix, YouTube and gaming. There are two ways of setting this unit up. You can either use an app on your phone which is very easy to do but only gives you access to basic functionality, or you can install a controller. On my first setup I used the app but very soon reset it and installed the controller software on one of my servers. I don't recommend going the controller route unless you know something about configuring networks. I now have 2.4GHz, a 5GHz and a guest WiFi network configured in the unit. You can have the unit block traffic to the rest of your network automatically for the guest network or for additional security you can use a VLAN to separate out the guest network. There are many more features for the guest WiFi which I don't need and haven't played with, they are probably more suited to hotels. You can see from the photo I've wall mounted it in the downstairs hallway (we moved in a few months ago and haven't painted the hallway yet, so I apologise for it not being neat). It comes with mounting kits for either ceiling tiles or drilling holes in ceilings/walls. For now I have opted for 2 medium sized 3M Command picture hanging strips because I wasn't 100% sure at the time of fitting whether this would be the right unit for us. I may at a later date drill holes and permanently mount it. I thoroughly recommend this unit, but with the caveat that it is definitely not the easiest to set up if you want all the features.
Review: Great high-performance AP at a reasonable price - This AP, installed in the home, is a replacement for a Netgear WAP120 which I bought not long ago and turned out to be the biggest pile of poo I've ever encountered for reasons you will find in my review of that product elsewhere on desertcart. In contrast this AP is a breath of fresh air. You have to download a Java-based app (the "controller") to configure the AP but then it's very straightforward. When you start the app it immediately asks you for location/timezone, login/password, and finally the name (SSID) and password that you want to associate with the AP (or group of APs). For a first installation it then sets up the AP and then you're up and running! There are lots of twiddly bits you can set up in a corporate context within the controller and you can monitor throughput on a per-device and per-AP basis, but for the latter you need to have the controller running continuously. The user interface is really well organised such that you can easily do things like give devices connected to the AP aliases that are more meaningful if you want to track who/what is connecting to the AP. Finally performance of the AP is excellent - very fast with good range all around the house. I love it to pieces! OK, so here is a summary of the good and bad points: Good points: You get a genuinely professional grade access point for the price of a consumer product. However, if you do want a cheaper but equally functional though slightly slower AP then there is also a "Lite" version which is, frankly, unbeatable at the price. Fantastically easy to do the initial set-up, but you must have the AP and the PC/Mac you use to initialise the AP connected to the same network subnet. Most home users don't need to worry about this detail because they'll only have one subnet. The controller offers great ongoing management ability if you are prepared to keep it running. But it isn't necessary to keep it running once the AP is set-up: the AP will happily keep on running without the controller. You can get more capabilities if you add products such a Security Gateway which acts as an internet firewall or a Cloud Key which runs a copy of the controller software and allows you to manage APs across multiple sites via the (free) Ubiquiti cloud. Some users use desertcart AWS services as an alternative. The AP uses Power over Ethernet (PoE) which means you only need to connect to it using a single network cable. The power supply (injector) or PoE-enabled switch in a corporate context, can be located out of the way. Great for wall-mounting the AP and minimising the amount of visible cabling. The not-so-good points: The key issue/problem is that each AP associates itself with the controller you first use to set it up. You can't thereafter just run a controller up from any old machine. The AP expects to talk to a controller on the same IP address as was used to set-up the AP. Yes, you can move an AP from one controller to another but you have to go through a process of "unadopting" the AP from the old controller and then "readopting" it on the new controller and it does take some technical understanding to do it. In fact I have done it at home because I wanted to gather the statistics on an ongoing basis so I have used a Raspberry Pi to implement a very low power dedicated controller which works extremely well. A second issue is that a DHCP server is set up by default which, on many networks (including the home), will already be managed elsewhere. So make a beeline for Settings/Network from the user interface, edit the LAN details and disable the DHCP server. Finally Ubiquiti made a curious choice of putting network connections on the bottom of the AP. So if you position it the right way up on a wall, in most instances where the cabling comes down from the ceiling, you will have to run a cable past the AP and then up into the base of the AP. Very strange.

## Questions & Answers

**Q: There are different versions. assume pro version is best? if i start with one pro do i expand with more pro units?**
A: The Pro is not "the best". It's one of a range of access points that do different things. If you want cheap and a few connections, buy the Lite, but be aware it needs non-standard 24V Passive PoE. If you want long range - especially with iOS and Android mobile devices - buy the LR unit which isn't as fast as the Pro on theoretical numbers, but it has better antennae so it will more likely get you a connection than the Pro. Make sure you get the newer model LR if you decide to buy that one as it supports standard 48V PoE. The Pro was theoretically the fastest AC until the HD came out but what really makes the Pro special is it supports a really large number of simultaneous users. If you're using it at home, buy the LR instead. The new "best" is the HD which is AC2, has bigger antenna and supports more users simultaneously. But it's double the price of the Pro. My recommendation for most home users is the LR because it's the best with phones and tablets if the signal gets a bit marginal.

**Q: Can i inject power to the ethernet cable if i am connecting to an unpowered ethernet port?**
A: the product comes with a POE adapter so you can use the device with an unpowered ethernet port.

**Q: could 2nd lan be connected to desktop directly?**
A: If your talking about a PC then yes you can, there are several options available depending on your setup and what you want to achieve.

**Q: If the main port is connected to poe can i connect the second port to a gigabit switch**
A: Hi,
Yes the ports are bridged you can connect the secondary port to a switch.
Many thanks
