Thankyou all, I ended up with Unifi Express 7, and my old RT86U is now an AP. It takes a bit of getting used to the new interface but no shortage of diagnostics, data, and options. We also just changed over to fttp from fttc so finally getting some use out if the wifi capacity. regards

Thanks all, All back up and running now. regards

Ahhh I have just discovered where the enabling for RADIUS is on the App. Sigh!

Hello, I have a Unifi Express 7 as my router. I set it up using the iOS app. I am trying to set up my openvpn server on it for remote access to my LAN. I navigate to the VPN setup, and no matter what I do it demand I enable RADIUS server. Therd are RADIUS settings in the manual setup as...

Thankyou for that. I have a couple of QNAP unmanaged 10/2.5 Gb switches which will serve until probably at dome point I get a managed switch. That UniFi 2.5GbE switch is USW-Flex-2.5G-5, seems pretty good value. regards

Thankyou all, I have opted for a Ubiquiti UniFi Express 7 to start and will add on from there if/as required. regards

Hello gents, do any of you here happen to know if the UDR7 supports WAN failover through 4G outside of using the LTE units? They only have on RJ45 WAN port and no USB si it would need to be dome kind of wireless solution or similar? regards

Maybe even a Ubiquiti UniFi Express 7 connected to my existing 2.5 Gb switches…

Thanks for that. WiFi security specs list WPA-PSK, WPA-Enterprise (WPA/WPA2/WPA3/PPSK) so that seems okay. actually cheaper than the RT-Be86U here in Banania.

Maybe a Ubiquiti Dream Router 7, Wi-Fi 7 which looks close to the BE86U.

Thankyou all for your input. I run a few local NAS devices and several PCs/laptops as well as have some remote clients and NAS. I would prefer a full 10Gb Lan but I choked on the cost at the time given limited number SSD drives I then used. I have compromised on 2.5Gb for LAN. I could do...

An option is just to use it as an access Point and simply put a wired router in front of it?

Yes thankyou. Quite informative. But time is moving on and the last few subjects are 6/12 months old. I don’t want to be stuck with something going EoL in the next couple of years but YMMV here.

Hello, Nearly time to replace the above unit with something else that is not EOL and supports ASUSwrt-Merlin, and also has 2.5 Gb lan support. We are nearly into 2026. Any recommendations/ new recommendations? regards.

Hmmm total failure. The problem is certainly with the router Settings. Previously I had this setup on an Archer c59 Running as the open vpn server. It only worked if both remote client and local client NAS were connected to the vpn. It unfortunately had no ability to allow static vpn ip...
