    Fiber on the way, new Unifi system planned

    Thanks for the concern but my NAS is just that, a local storage device. It is backed up to a remote location (my brother's NAS, he backs his up to mine). In addition I also pay for cloud storage to back up all critical files. I am only buying TB5 for storage right now.

    Fiber on the way, new Unifi system planned

    All of my other devices support at least wifi 6, I don't see the benefit in handicapping them when I am installing a brand new network. My wife and I (and my kids) are all software consutlants and in the case of my wife and I we work 100% remote. The new speeds are not only about bandwidth, that...

    Fiber on the way, new Unifi system planned

    Thanks for the link to the UI forums, I was not aware of them. :-) I do think that more AP's and less power is the way to go. I just need to play around some more with the layout tool and see what I can come up with. I do have a few wifi 7 devices (iPhones) but expect to have many more...

    IN the same room as the initial AP (office) or in the adjacent room. There is a larger working space that is often occupied by 1 or 2 laptops and other various devices (remote work).

    Fiber on the way, new Unifi system planned

    Issues are intermittent disconnects,sometimes the wireless stuff drops for a couple of minutes. Also, can have terrible latency at times. All TV's are 4K and use streaming. Not sure what that takes but current broadband provider kept hitting me with a $50 data overage charge (over 2TB/month)...

    Fiber on the way, new Unifi system planned

    Typical usage would be 4-5 laptiops, two or more gaming consoles. I am most concerned about streaming, we have 4 TV's and all use Apple TV, or other streaming. I just want my connections be as stable as possible and to be able to get the most out of my 2G service. The lowest possible latency is...

    Fiber on the way, new Unifi system planned

    I currently have two Asus ZenWiFi AX6600 routers configured in a mesh system. I am getting 2G fiber installed and as part of that move am replacing my current setup with Unifi. I want to make sure that my plan for the new network hardware and installation makes sense. My house has two levels...
