get this unit for my ownself... small... but sufficient enuf....

i'm trying to create a site-to-site vpn on USG with dynamic WAN address on both ends

challenge is the GUI does not support FQDN definition for the peer has anyone had success with such a scenario ? btw only one end is USG, where another end is on another solution.

if i not mistaken.... need to edit json file... was curious about this too...

tried many ways and its a hair pulling experience

Some of the guy told me do this. if you have USG at both end

sifu2 sekalian, one question, i'm in the midst of setting up a new network for my new home.

will tm unifi be able to work with this setup? or must use Edge Router? The reason i chose USG is because all the other products in the environment is from UniFi line.. and i read in the forums USG is more friendly in terms of the GUI. But i'm open to ideas, appreciate the input from experts here..

TM modem -> USG -> US-24-500W -> UAP-AC-LR / PRO

Yes sir u can setup pppoe through vlan on usg to work with tm unifi. Usg and edgerouter lite is basically the same hardware. Usg has gui interface running on a controller. Pretty and somewhat easy to figure out. Usg and erlite will perform exactly the same. Usg has prettier interface while having higher price. Erlite isnt as pretty hardware and software wise, but it too is easy to setup. A few clicks away through the built in wizard and u r up and running like a flash. Checkout my tutorial if u need some head start. Either one will be a great buy. Cheers

wonderful, thank you so much !!

This will never work,
u need at lease 1 side with static IP for the dynamic to initiate the connection.

Guys, I'm planning to buy EdgeRouter X to replace my existing TP-Link C1200. Something like this:



1. The C1200 currently has to be put inside store room bcoz fibre endpoint & my in-wall LAN points are there, reducing Wifi strength downstairs.
2. Will the above setup work?
3. I want to at least be able to view traffic utilisation & connected devices.
4. Initially interested towards Mikrotik HEX router + Dude server, but tuned off by its Windows-95-feel GUI.
5. I read that EdgeRouter can use Ubiquiti's UNMS, which look similar to Unifi Controller software that I'm very impressed with.
6. Can I use UNMS to monitor my network with just EdgeRouter X?

Thanks.

1) setting up a wired router is always the best scenario. Then followed by descent ap(s). which is totally fine in your case
2) yes it will work fine
3) Through edgerouter gui yes.
4) i have to agree with you about the gui. but if ur talking performance its a whole other story. i have to say hex is a more powerful device overall. but i love ubiquiti for being based off vyatta as i can install a ton of packages. so far i have both ubiquiti and mikrotik, and i find it hard to choose a favourite. anyways, i digress.
5) i will leave this for other guys to answer as i never use one (yet)
6) as stated above.

If I were you, I would use the Ubiquiti UAP AC Pro as AP, and make it a full Ubiquiti system in your house, which you can manage in a central manner rather than using three separate routers that is converted to an AP.

Thanks wanttotree for the feedback.

Ideally would like to do that, but USG is RM200 more expensive. I'd like to start at router level first. Hopefully the new UNMS will be more like Controller software.

Fair enough, you have to see if it fits into what you want.

Curious of your UMNS VM, how actually you do on it?

Hey guy,
I just want let ERLite-3 go due to not familiar with the configuration. Any interested ?

Thanks

hi guys, i'm planning to get a AC-LR for mounting on my new house ground floor ceiling. Then i planning to use the free wifi router from Unifi (if any) to setup the same SSID on my first floor. Is it possible? Any issues for using different brand of APs?

Also how is this compared to mesh APs? i have not research much on mesh but seeing hte price tag have put me away from them...

Thanks for the advise

LR provide much wide range coverage.. if i not mistaken (need to recheck) AC LR have 3x3 mimo on 2.4Gz compare 2x2 mimo on 2.4Gz in AP Mesh. its good to get AC LR if you plan indoor deployment.

regarding on setting same SSID, i think dats fine.. maybe it works.
