Folks - I need help.
I bought the UDR7 router during the Black Friday sale just to see what the hype was about and since then I’ve already placed multiple orders for hundreds of dollars of equipment. As we speak I have a cart full of over a thousand dollars more equipment that I’m on the cusp of submitting and and there is no end in sight.
If there is anyone out there who can talk me out of this rabbit hole I fear this may be the last chance for salvation
My name is ccunning and I’m a Unifi-holic…
Dew it.
Edit:
This post is like an addict asking a group of other addicts if they should stop while the whole group takes another hit.B&h photo and video as well as adorama let you buy ubiquiti equipment and return it.
Ubiquiti has a reputation for not accepting returns on properly functional gear
I too went down this road. Everything bar the Modem is Unifi in my home network now. The central management is very convenient, but if you want to hear about grievances, I got two for you to choose from. First, IPv6 support is needlessly limited. You can have Prefix Delegation or advertise a ULA network, but not both at the same time. No idea why. This seems very easy to implement. Second, the local dynamic DNS (i.e. advertising the IPs of your local clients) works sometimes, but not all the time. You can mitigate this one by using .local as your domain ‘though, in which case you fall back on MDNS in case the Unifi DNS fails.
Go for Mikrotik.
This will happen automatically if you buy enough and start experiencing their true hardware failure rate lol.
I don’t have advice to give you beyond looking at !ubiquiti@lemmy.world and !ubiquiti@lemmy.ml
Do their radios still not do 801.11af? You still need to have their stupid POE injectors hanging on the wall?
