    Is Unifi worth the upgrade?

    Never mind, I saw your next post about the UX7's. So (2) of those and then (1) U6-Mesh for outside and then just (3) of the Flex Minis. That definitely makes the cost of everything less.

    Is Unifi worth the upgrade?

    Gotcha. So I could basically do the Fiber Gateway and (2) PoE injectors to handle the (3) wifi AP's and then (3)of the Flex Mini 2.5G switches to handle the ethernet lines I currently have in place? Stupid question here, the gateways do not have any type of Wi-Fi capability, correct?

    Is Unifi worth the upgrade?

    Really appreciate all the wisdom here. Been looking at the various gateways and it does appear that the UCG-Fiber may be the way to go, especially since we have a 2Gig connection through AT&T, and if I am understanding everything correctly will allow me to run the (3) Wi-Fi access points via...

    Is Unifi worth the upgrade?

    I've updated my Asus routers every 2 to 3 years due to random 5GHz issues so I just feel like I'm constantly throwing money away. I'm also just growing tired of always needing to reboot everything once or twice a week to keep things running smoothly.

    Is Unifi worth the upgrade?

    Thank you for your response, and it sounds like this would be the best for long term. Learning new things is not a fear though I am limited in my networking skills, but I’ve made it this far with our smart home setup. Having a Hubitat Hub has been way more in depth than I had ever imagined. 😂...

    Is Unifi worth the upgrade?

    So I've been reading quite a few of the posts regarding Asus vs Unifi and now I'm really starting to wonder if it's worth the investment, especially since my network has been struggling over the last few weeks. I currently have AT&T 2GB fiber connection with the BGW620-700 running in IP...

    DHCP Failures on Asus GT-AX6000

    So I'm still experiencing high packet losses and what might NAT issues since updating to the latest version of 3006.102.5. While turning off Asusnat Tunnel resolved the Mastif errors, I'm now having issues with high (65-90%) packet losses on some devices and very inconsistent connections on...

    DHCP Failures on Asus GT-AX6000

    That seems to have resolved the issues I was seeing, at least the logs do not show the mastiff service trying to re-reload every 30 seconds. I will try to upgrade to the most recent version now that I know what seems to be the resolution. Thank you very much for your help!

    DDNS watchdog restarting every 30 seconds

    My apologies, I thought this was the same issue as the watchdog restarting every 30 seconds. I created a separate thread to see what's going on. I did try to look to disable the Asusnat tunnel, but I do not have that option available on myGT-AX6000. Thanks for your help though.

    DHCP Failures on Asus GT-AX6000

    My ASUS GT-AX6000 router has been experiencing persistent DHCP failures since a recent firmware update on Saturday to version 3006.102.5, preventing devices from obtaining IP addresses consistently. I started noticing on Sunday that my network has was losing internet connection a couple of times...

    DDNS watchdog restarting every 30 seconds

    I'm having an issue with my Asus GT-AX6000 where it appears my router is stuck in a Mastiff/Watchdog loop every 30 seconds according to my logs. I'm receiving DHCP errors on my network and this all started after upgrading to the most recent Merlin firmware 3006.102.5 over the weekend. I just...

    Random Wi-Fi speed issues

    I am having some unusual Wi-Fi issues with my setup that I’m hoping someone can help with. I have the AT&T 2 gb service with the BGW320-500 gateway running in passthrough mode to an Asus GT-AX6000 as the main router with an RT-AX88U downstairs in AiMesh mode. With the AX6000 I can achieve 2 gb...

    Easy way to migrate from Asus RT-AX88U to Asus GT-AX6000?

    Thank you - figure this might be the case but wanted to check with the folks much smarter than me first. Thanks again.
