I still don't get why you would use mesh over standard APs. If you need to run a network cable up to it for power anyway, why not just continue that wire to the network closet and run APs? Serious question.
ОтветитьI appreciate all the videos I've seen on how to open a box and how to mount the devices. But there is no information on how to set up the network what switches you need how to set it up on a computer etc. After asking a lot of assistance from friends including someone in the security alarm industry no one can figure all the different devices needed and computer set up. We'll that is not entirely true. I'm making some headway but the common denominator is 90 % can open a box mount the hardware and plug in a device to the wall. So how about a video for the non tech savvy from start to finish on setup with explanations on all the PoE. SSID and so forth.
ОтветитьHave an rv park using uap ac m pro aps
We have 900mbs service. 7 wireless aps go to one wired on clubhouse roof pointing downhill to the 7 aps. Would a uap ac HD be a better choice for the wired ap the other 7 transmit to? Is it outdoor.rated?
What program can you use to check signal strength at each ap?
Thx
Will the mesh pro work at a distance of 250 feet, in a metal garage? Or, do I even need the pro?
ОтветитьThanks Chris for the very detailed explanation 👏🏻. Just subscribed 😃
Ответитьwould mesh access points within range, provide infinite access? like say a 100 of them going for miles ;)
Ответитьdoes glass interfere with signal strength?
ОтветитьHi Chris , you forgot to talk about the latency. Meshing increase a lot the latency. Also meshing it’s not the best solution when you have high density like in stadium. Using it for the backyard is perfect :)
ОтветитьThank you sir, appreciate your help in explaining these things.
ОтветитьHam Radio Operaters Us these in the Mesh Routers, on the Aredn Network!
ОтветитьUbiquity.....LOL They should change their name to "Sold Out" It is already all over their web site.
ОтветитьNot sure good boy is getting enough love and attention.
ОтветитьOkay so 2.3 Minutes in and one question is answered. Mesh is wireless only. I DON"T wan't that. I have a Ubiquity Unifi Lite and a larger Pro "round" AP's. I want them 100% to BOTH to be hard wired into the network, both for POE, and for DATA, but I need them to talk togeather and create one single SSID for Wifi, then if I add another later, it will just be a AP with the same SSID again just to better cover. Private home, just very large, over 5,000 Square Feet. What do I do to make them all hard wired, and have only one SSID?
Ответитьcan I add mesh network capability to my existing LAN by simply getting a Cloud Key and at least 2 radios (eg. UAP-AC-M-US) ?
ОтветитьI am surprised Unifi was not sued yet for calling this a "mesh". It is not really a "mesh" network. Unifi APs can only have one uplink. They work more like AP-Client/Repeater functionality which is found on normal APs.
ОтветитьNice video as always. Just a question: you say that if you plug an Ethernet cable into a mesh unit it will work as a classic AP... So do classic APs have "mesh capabilities" when a wifi device moves among them?
ОтветитьPolarised antenna use one should be x axis and another should be y axis
ОтветитьI'm curious on the mesh pro... It says 183 meters or about 600ft of coverage. Would that be a point to point? Like 600ft radius and 1200 ft diameter because it is omnidirectional? If it is only 600ft of coverage total, 300ft in each direction, it would seem odd because it can handle...I'm not sure it was over 100 connected devices, that would be a lot of devices in a small area.
ОтветитьSo can this be used for cameras
ОтветитьHi I have 6 cabins and my Internet is in the main cabin. The furthest cabin is approx 300 feet away. What would you suggest I install on the roof of my main cabin to send the signal 300 feet away. Thanks
ОтветитьAwesome
Ответитьi just need to go from pint A to point B about 700 to 800 feet away I.E from my house to my Back Shed wirelessly and do it on the Cheep
ОтветитьSo what your saying is with my udm-pro connected hardwire to 30 AP-AC-HD I should not be doing mesh as they are all access points and work just fine for a school old building from 1880's.
ОтветитьWayyyy too many laptop wifi modules are horrid. I've upgraded many, though HP won't let me fix my own laptop, due to the BIOS "white listing" only a couple of poor performers. It's really pretty sad when $20 will buy a 2x2 MIMO AC module that will scream.
ОтветитьThat was a helpful video. Thanks
ОтветитьSo, my detached garage needs better coverage (gets ok coverage but I’ll move the access point in house closer to help) but I want to run one of my UniFi PoE cameras in there too. What is the best way to improve wireless reception and also provide Ethernet in garage for cameras?
ОтветитьWhy not connect the UAP-AC-M to the UAP-AC-PRO wirelessly ? What purpose does the UAP-AC-M-Pro give ? Seems like an extra wireless hop that would induce delay no? great video and love your channel ! I'm currently running an UDM Pro, UNVR, US-24, and a few AP's myself.
ОтветитьUniquiti isn’t that great of a wireless system, short distance, and not enough power.
ОтветитьThank you Chris for your explanation. It is very helpfull for me now. I want to expand my office network through wireless
ОтветитьI have 3 UAP AC M and 1 UAP AC LR, I want UAP aC LR uplink from UAP AC M4, but I can not see this function on Unifi controller, currently I using Mikrotik as the main router, and UAP AC M is the uplink to Mikrotik and wireless up link to AC M2 , AC M3 , and AC LR,
But AC LR is far from AC M1, so that I want to uplink from AC M3, but I can not do it.
Could you pls help ?
Thanks.
What would you recommend if I just, want to add one AP outdoors? I already have three AP AC Pro indoors but need more coverage in the garden. The new AP will be connected by wire.
Should I got for the small mesh device or should I just add another AP AC Pro?
Any chance of an update using 6.2.26 unifi controller.
I'm struggling to get mine to mesh
Setup - I have a standalone event trailer with a static Ip setup and Internet access via a 4g router. The 4g router has an SSID that ends SR - and supplies wifi access to a single PC in the trailer.
I then have AC-M with a sector antenna wired into that switch, and it has an SSID ending LR.
When I try and deploy a second AC-M it just fails adoption - and I've no idea why. These remote AC-M's will be accessed by laptops to send data back to the trailer network. On the PC in the trailer I have an FTP server running (Filezilla) I have managed to get a camera with a WiFi attachment to detect the LR SSID, and login and FTP images back from around 400m (well beyond the stated range) however try as I have to get the second AC-M to be part of the setup it fails.
If I try with a laptop, it see's the LR SSID, and can login, but there the fun stops. Any attempt to use a FTP Client on the laptop doesn't go anywhere and I don't think its a FTP issue as the log file doesn't show the laptop failing, it just sits there idle
Any help much appreciated
What would you do for a business which has buildings separated by about 100 yards each, with the main building being where the servers are located and everyone on the property needs access to it wirelessly, plus each of the remote buildings have switches in them which need access to the network as well?
ОтветитьI hope this is a simple question - If I initialize a couple of UAP-AC-M-Pro units using Unifi on the Laptop here at my house, before taking them to install at my sister & brother-in-law's farm, should I expect to have any issue with switching the APs over to Unifi running on their PC?
ОтветитьI want to use the wireless uplink function for 2 AP-AC Pro's, 1 lan, 1 without. But after disconnected the lan, i don't get the isolated status, i get the disconnected status. so i can't us the wireless uplink functions at all. what i do wrong? thanks for the help.
ОтветитьHow did you succeed to configure UAP-AC-M to work with uplink via wireless but in same time laptop connected via the rj45? I'm able to have it connected via wireless but Lan does not bridge anything to the network.
Appreciate your help.
hello, could please help me for wireless uplink. i use UCK GEN2 PLUS > UXG 16 > UAP AC M 2Quantity now. all F/W update lastest version But ican not see the wireless uplink in UAP AC M config. i dont know what is the problems... do you know what is the problems?
Ответитьhi Chris , I use Access Point Mesh, on the unifi controller, I use the guest portal, and use the voucher, when I try it it works fine, just why when I turn off the unfi controller, the guest portal does not ask for the voucher and internet access can be used
ОтветитьHi,
Unfortunately, I was not able to configure Wireless Uplink with the AC Mesh M and AC Mesh Pro even the Controller Version is latest and the device firmware is up to date. There is nothing showing in the device Wireless area option as you showed in the controller. It would be great help if you could re-make this video on latest controller and device firmware versions.
Thank you for the great help.
Regards.
Multiple WiFi repeaters that I've looked at only support WEP when repeating the signal. So the mesh models are definitely an improvement for security.
ОтветитьCan please someone help me how to remove UAP-AC-M from wall mounting bracket with level? Just not possible to detach this two pieces.
ОтветитьQuit throwing boxes and disturbing the doggo's attempts to nap! :)
Ответитьyou left some important info our when segwayed to the later recording. some settings are defaulted but so are not. if setting up for the first time, this video is not accurate.
ОтветитьDoes anyone have any tips (or links) on how to configure security to prevent someone unplugging the LAN cable from the AP and into a laptop giving them access to the network. I'm thinking some form of VLAN config with 802.1x for clients using WiFi but I cannot get my head around the settings for the physical connection.
ОтветитьJust wondering if I connected the outdoor m pro directly to the modem instead of using is at a repeater would my outdoor users get faster speeds? I have about 250 people outside.
ОтветитьDo these mesh APs work in reverse for the wire? I know some mesh solutions turn the wired connection into an uplink so you can get a device that doesn't have wifi (i.e. a desktop computer, etc) onto the network.
ОтветитьThank you Chris. I learned so much with this informative video. I really appreciate the amount of detail and additions you piled on as you made it.
ОтветитьWe need a Ubiqiti Alien holding a football antenna. I would pay money for that.
ОтветитьWill these mesh with the links us the one that every is using
