Like the title says.

I'm in a townhouse with a few wired ports and the in-wall points make the most sense right now. I'd love to update to some new 2.5Gbe and Wifi7 hardware.

Hello all, I have Quantum Fiber and recently got a Dream Machine SE. I’ve attempted to access the GUI for the C5500XK to put it in transparent mode but I have been running into issues.

First, I’m only able to access the GUI on 192.168.1.1. Which obviously isn’t a problem but all documentation and even the ONT shows that the GUI should be on 192.168.0.1.

Second, once I do access the GUI, when I try to login using the supplied username and password, it is showing as invalid.

I attempted to contact support but they told me they don’t recommend transparent mode. Once I urged them to help me, they told me to go through the instructions and gave me a canned response. They also said that the username and password is hardcoded and can’t be changed. Does anyone have any idea what the issue might be?

Thanks for everyone’s feedback.

I’m just wondering if installing an 8tb ssd for 8x 1080p would help with scrubbing through videos? I know I can achieve faster speeds than a single spinning disk with raid on the unvr but I’m wondering if just installing a huge SSD instead of a hard disk would give a big enough performance boost to not need to upgrade with 8 cameras?

I see some Etsy injection molded mounts, and I guess that's an option, but are there any other rackmount options others have used? Have my UXG Lite in transit, so looking at options.

I've been searching for a few days (off and on) for instructions on the best way to replace a USG with a UXG-Lite. I've found posts and other web pages with instructions. Some say to power up the UXG and configure it then replace the USG with it. Others say to create a new site, adopt the new UXG-Lite there, then move it to my current site after removing the USG (removing from the controller and physically from the network). I'm not sure the best way for my setup.

I have a local cloud key controller. I'm not using default subnets. I have quite a few firewall rules and multiple VLANs. I'm assuming there is an easy way to adopt the new UXG-Lite and have it pick up all of the configuration currently being used with the USG.

If there are instructions posted somewhere, I apologize for asking, but I found the two ways described and didn't know which is best to use for my setup.

Thanks for any advice.

I do love Omada EAPs, they offer more than their price but there are two things I didn't like:

• Their Omada Software cannot offer things what UniFi network offers ( Unifi is more clear and insightful and easy)
• I always had lots of connect/disconnect problem with my devices at home, from 2.4gh IOT devices to my Apple Devices and etc

Since I switched, the devices are working fine.

Unfortunately I don't have enough space for UDM-Pro, I hope they release something powerful but small for people like me. UDR is cool, but limited to 700Mb, my internet is fiber optic symetric gigabit. If they do release something for my needs, I also ditch my supreme Mikrotik RB5009RB.

There is nothing wrong with Mikrotik, I just want newer toys + simplicity and single place of manage/monitoring all network.

At the end thanks to the users who gave me their expeirence that I asked here:

P.S:

I did my best to understand what's wrong with my network configuration in Omada EAPs but no luck.

My UDM pro took an electrical hit during a thunderstorm - won't even boot into recovery mode so I'm RMA'ing it. In the mean time I have a bunch of APs and cameras/UNVR-pro, switches, etc that are working fine and I need to restore internet to the campus.

Question: To get the access points back up and running while waiting for an RMA ,can I host my own unifi controller on a local server I have an just plug the 24 port switch into my local ISPs router?

I am looking for an alternative solution to quickly get internet access restored via the Access points that are in place. Thanks for any feedback,

I need a few sm 1gb transceivers for an unifi agg switch and a couple us8 150w switches, do i just order custom configured transceivers from fs.com? Enter ubiquiti as make and thats it?

Thanks everyone!

Recently realized all the U6's have BT, but the new U7-PRO doesn't have Bluetooth? Wouldn't this mean that anyone that wants to get into the accessories that require BT would no longer work if they upgrade from the U6 series to the U7?

On another thread (and no need to get into this here) quite a few of us talked about the Unifi Dream Machine Pro/SE vs. Pfsense. Great discussion, lots of opinions, but for me personally I think I landed on the Dream Machine SE.

I have a rather nice set of those TP-Link Deco WiFi 6 routers at the moment, 3 of them in a mesh. I intended to flip those to access point mode and use them for now with the UDM setup.

But, one of the reasons for going with a whole new router/firewall setup is in part for security but also some additional features. One being that I want to run VLANs at least to separate IOT devices from my main network. But then I was thinking of having 1) a main network, 2) an IOT network, 3) an IOT secured network, and 4) a guest network. Things like door locks, etc. would be on the IOT secured network. Light bulbs and the like on the IOT network. My computers and phones and everything on the main network. Guests on the guest network.

Something that is totally foreign to me coming from the world of just buying a router/firewall/ap device and plugging it in is this idea you can have multiple SSIDs. I never even knew you could do that outside of a main and guest network. Furthermore, I am learning that with multiple SSIDs on one AP, you can in the UDM make it so for example IOT devices login to one SSID which channels into that VLAN. While my main network devices login to another SSID which channels into a different VLAN. I think I understand this right?

So that leaves me with a couple of questions here... 1) could someone help me understand which AP by Unifi can have multiple SSIDs and are those all a 2.4ghz and 5ghz network or what? (my main I want both if a device can't use 5ghz, but perhaps IOT it doesn't matter and 2.4ghz is fine) 2) am I correct on that I can not create more SSIDs in the UDM for the TP-Link mesh setup?

Finally, and I am sure this is a huge debate. But I always thought mesh was this big new thing that made traveling around the house seamless. But what I am learning is that the access points are highly regarded and used in very sophisticated setups, and mesh isn't really all that better. I guess I am thinking I have a 3,200 square foot house and the way it's built I need at least 2 APs but those 2 APs will certainly overlap quite a bit. I just want to be able to walk around home without an issue.

I have a AP LR6 that has been going offline briefly at about the same time each day (8:10AM) over the past week or so. I get an entry in the network dashboard system logs suggesting to confirm sufficient power or replace/confirm cable is OK (it is) . Anything attached to the AP goes offline for the brief duration of about 20 seconds, then all back to normal; next day or so, the event repeats. I've done ssh into the AP and see nothing in the logs. Same with UDMP logs, at least the ones I've checked. I use the timestamp from the log entry on the system logs for the event. Is there a definitive log that should be showing the event; which device and which log(s)? Any suggestions appreciated.

UPDATE: Logging into the POE switch, the message log shows "logged event(EVT_SW_PoeShort) fault status code 2". It shows 4 times for the port of the specific AP I'm dealing with, BUT it also shows the same fault for a port for my only other AP that is on (but no event/error/log entry/outage is observable). I had a similar issue about 6 months ago where Unifi ended up replacing the POE switch as nothing else seemed to resolve. It was also the OTHER AP, so it doesn't seem to be the AP hardware at fault. Am I back to that being the POE switch again???????.

I'm pretty sure if I remember last time I was looking at the graphs in the old UI, one or both my iPads were causing most of the retransmit on 2.4. I made a few adjustments that seemed to help reduce that. Does anyone else have any tips/tricks to reduce retransmit that aren't obvious?

The proximity isn't an issue, the furthest device on the wireless side of the network is a camera that is about 30ft away from its AP. Is it that the 6th generation iPad's antennas are just trash? IDK, it just bugs me, and it seems like with so many other devices working just fine, these should too.

High retransmit on both radios for 2.4

Wi-Fi signal strength and experience look good

Way back the controller stopped supporting sending an email, when ever a AP, Switch etc. disconnected, which was quite usefull... Have anybody found another way to get this info?

I use PRTG to monitor alot of stuff, but setting up ping to 90 devices, is not the way to go. But is it possible to monitor the controller it self maybe?

Any suggestions?

Hello Everyone.

I'm having an issue that I'm hoping someone can help with.

I have 2 sites which Im having trouble connecting together via vpn gateway. This gateway is provided by the isp.

Site A: Has a basic cisco router, with all the static routes filled

Ip range: 10.22.30.0/24

Router Gateway: 10.22.30.31

Vpn gateway: 10.22.30.30

Site B: Has a UDM Pro with Unifi OS v3.2.7 and Network 8.0.26

Ip range: 10.22.11.0/24

Udmp Router Gateway: 10.22.11.31

Vpn gateway: 10.22.11.30, connected to port 7 on udmp

I have the static route on the UDMP on site B setup like this, is this correct?

I can ping everything on Site A from site B, but RDP, smb filebrowsing, webapps does not work.

From site A I can only ping 10.22.11.30 and .31

Other sites with normal routers to site A works normally.

See the routing example on site A’s router

Is there anything specific that needs to be done?

Your expertise is well appreciated.

Hello

I know there is a capacity calculator and that the UDR is specified to run 2 x 2K cameras only.

But i would like to know if anyone in the real world has has tried UDR with 3 x 2K cameras.

In my case I now have 1x5G bullet and 1x G4 Doorbel Pro PoE Kit and would like to know if i can ad another 5G Bullet. Please answer if you have tested 3 x 2K cameras only please.

Thanks

HI all. I'm just skimming through the docs for Unifi Identify, the free license version. I work with UDM SEs primarily.

I'm trying to understand what the real world use case is for One-Click WiFi. As I understand it, you create a user on the UDM, you input their email address, and to grant this One-Click WiFi access to that user, an email is sent. I presume they open the email up on their smartphone, and in some fashion it'll pre-authorize them by way of some kind of unique code in the email perhaps, plus they download the Unifi Identify app, and so eliminates the need for inputting a WiFi password.

And yet, overall, this seems like more work than just typing in the password, to which the smartphone remembers it and auto-connects when in range anyway. And this assumes the invite email isn't spam blocked, that the user isn't confused and needing helpdesk support, etc. Why not just give a password instead?

I suppose this is one way to ensure that the people accessing the network are only authorized users - the password is never visible so can't be shared and presumably whatever "token" is given by the invite email is a one-time item?

Thanks!

I was in the process of ordering a G4 Doorbell in Germany, when I noticed that the transformer to 16V AC was no longer listed in the product description. I opened a ticket which confirmed, that the doorbell no longer includes the needed transformer for it. Problem is, a 230V AC to 16V AC transformer for DIN rails is kind of non existing in Germany. To use a 24V AC transformer is also not recommended, because they output more than 24V with no or little power draw. Any ideas to get it working?
