Normally for in-house use would the 2 lite ap’s be more than enough. Personally, I always use an LR on the ground floor (so it extends also a bit into the garden) and a lite on the first floor. With an apartment, two lite’s would be enough. It would be nice if Ubiquiti made the Controller software install a little more user friendly. For example, configuring all the needed ports for the Windows Firewall. And having a button to install/uninstall it starting as a service. This is the secure version of the Unifi HD. The main difference between the two is that the SHD is designed for secure areas, like hospitals and banks. The SHD is designed with a dedicated dual-band radio to constantly monitor and protect the wireless network traffic.
If you are really looking for an UniFi outdoor ap then the UniFi Mesh and Mesh Pro are really the best options. Also, the FlexHD can be installed safely outdoors. Each of the switch's ports can provide either PoE+ or configurable, 24V passive PoE to UniFi access points or other PoE devices."What killed it for me was when I did more research it came out that the Google WiFi systems are actually a router and while it is capable of being put into what they call "bridged" mode, where it essentially behaves just as a regular Access Point only WiFi device with no routing functionality... You end up loosing most of the cool functionality they show in the videos. That made it pointless, as being a Systems Engineer by profession, I demand more control of my systems. There was also the uncool tendency of Google just abandoning a project they feel isn't worth it anymore for them (either it's not making them any money or who knows, maybe they just lost interest). While I've had a great experience with my two (1 first gen, 2nd newer) Chromecast, I've had other Google products that become fundamentally defunct due to Google choosing to no longer support them way before I feel I am done with the device. And something like my WiFi I typically buy and it gets used for 5 years or so, I wasn't comfortable with the very real possibility of Google abandoning it just because THEY felt it was too old, before I felt the same way. The Pro has WiFI 6 on both bands (2.4 and 5Ghz) where the lite and LR only have WiFi 6 on 5Ghz. So that might explain the speed improvement on the 2.4Ghz band. Power Method:- Passive Power over Ethernet (48V)- 802.3af/802.3at Supported (Supported Voltage Range: 44 to 57VDC) When you say, "the UAP-AC Lite will get absolutely NO more than 95mb/s", is the 95 the reported link speed, or a throughput measurement of some sort (like speedtest.net etc.)?
how the 5 GHz perf can be so good (4.8 Gbps !) using the same specs than U6 LR (same Max. TX Power = 26 dBm, same MIMO 4×4, same Antenna Gain 6 dBi) ? At the moment of writing the first UniFi access point that supports the new WiFi standard 6E. This means that it has a 6 GHz channel besides the 2.4 and 5ghz channels. The access point only has a single 2.5 Gbps ethernet port. This means that you will need to connect it to a 10Gbit switch to fully benefit the throughput of WiFi 6E mainly is focused on simultaneous clients. The antenna design of the HD is different compared to the other UniFi access points. It’s designed to cover a lot of clients in a small area. So the wireless network won’t spread as far as the other access points. Keep that in mind when you are placing the UniFi HD.If you are looking for a Wifi 6 outdoor access point from UniFi then you will have to wait a bit longer. There is a new mesh access point coming out, the Unifi 6 Mesh, which is currently available in the early access store. If you can’t access the UniFi access point from the controller and can’t easily access it physically, then SSH is the last option that you have to reset the AP. First, we need to connect to the device. Connecting with SSH
Great Deal
