i haven try it yet.. but edge router yes... since its fully customize.... and able to do vlan tagging, so it works well... pppoe with vlan tagging... so, im not sure how unifi gateway will do...

Yup unifi does support pppoe over vlan

thanks

thanks!

I plan to do the similar setup like another forumer.

Considering between three setup

Unifi Modem > ERPoe-5 > 4 or 5 UBNT UAP AC Pro

Unifi Modem > UBNT Security Gateway > TS-8-PRO > 4 or 5 UBNT UAP AC Pro

Unifi Modem > Unifi Stock Router (reason : using hyppty box through wifi vlan tag) > TS-8-PRO> 4 or 5 UBNT UAP AC Pro

I saw that UBNT AP can set vlan tag through wifi.
So i guess i could set up a secondary WIFI SSID and vlan tag it for hypptbox?

My setup = want every hardware do its own task rather than AIO to distribute the load in order to cater big family members of mine?

5 MBP, 2 MacMini, 2 Apple TV, 5 iPhone, 3 iPad, Printer and Etc.

My current setup is following:
Unifi Modem > Unifi Stock Router (reason : using hyppty box through wifi vlan tag) > 2 Apple Airport Extreme Router running in bridge mode as AP

Hope you could give me some hints, sifu

By the way, my friend is giving me previous generations of UAP AC PRO (square design) I wonder is there much different between the latest and previous generation?

does all UAP AC PRO need to get the unifi cloud key to manage ?

or can just browse to its IP link would do just like all others lower end UAP AC ?

No u dont need the cloud key to manage, unless u wanna do users load balancing, offsite management, or hotspot. I dont think uap any web gui. All managed by the controller.

i am using it as a wireless bridge. Connection is flawless, almost getting 90% from the original transmitter speed.

Sorry for the late reply, i need to cover a particular area. Not sure i should use NanoStation or NanoBeam ?

nanostation can use as AP and PTP devices.. as in your case, make it become AP. let it broadcast the wifi.. but you might need to plan it properly. Nanobeam if only if, you have unifi then you able to fully utilized its speed. Nanobeam is a directional antenna and you could probably connect it with a phone or a laptop @ ~300ft at best.

Thanks for advice !

I wonder edge router poe-5 possible to use as switch and poe at the same time ?

Eg :

Etho = wan
Eth1 = lan
Eth2-4 = poe

If can that means we can save a lot on the ubiquiti switch + Poe

yes.. can

Tbh the new us8 60w is cheaper and have more ports. Maybe u can look into that. Its on sale now, but not sure if local dist have it in stock yet. If i were u i would look for a good deal online. Eg: senetic.co.uk. (their shipping is cheaper than most places)

Hi,

I'm plan to do bridge for a distance 2km and here is my configuration.

Location A = Fiber time router (300MBP) > NBE-5AC-16
Location B = NBE-5AC-16 > Router.

Is that I'm correct to setup like that ?.

Thank you all sifu first.

Symon Lim

yes

Damn this is rly interesting project. Location b is landed or high rise too?

its a common project.. the challenge is that, Line of Sight, and weather factor. especially heavy rain

High rise sure with time fibre and another station is landed.
