Yeah same, roughly 5 months in now. Just works out the box. If you want to dig deep, the options are there, but the defaults all seem to be fine. Little fine tuning to Channels/Bandwidth etc but other than that, not really touched anything else!

The amount of times I've ignored something purely because 'it just can't be that!' but turns out to be that! And yep, 99% of the time it's the cable.

Good shout. Was using one before the switch to Ubiquiti. Worked well. Little off topic, when I first set the Ubiquiti stuff up, I had left the RP-AX58 connected to the network and the Unifi OS was seeing it as a totally different model.

I mean, mine are pretty much in the same place I had my Asus router and my Asus AP and the signal seems to be pretty much the same, and In some cases, a little better. That's with them both sat, dome up. Roughly 3 or 4 feet off the floor.

Yep

Thanks for pointing that out. I don't think I have professional installer ticked, so that's, probably why. Something to play with at some point!

Ooo, no I didn't know actually! That's good to know. I'll leave it for the time being with low and high. I can't put myself through anymore 'tinkering'... Yet! Haha

Pretty much how I'm setup. One AP at each side of the house. 2.4/low/20. 5/high/80. Different channels on each AP.

The weather here in the last week or so has been warm, warmer than usual. Low 30c's, humid etc, so it could well be that . I have the Pro sat on a stand that roughly 4 foot high, no metal mounting backplate. Not sure which way the it should face, as in, which part of the U6 Pro is stronger...

Nope. Nothings really changed, except the weather!

The U6 Pro is probably 6/7 feet closer to the camera/shed than the Asus was

What I will say is that the 2.4ghz on the U6 Pro doesn't seem as good as it did on the Asus AX86S. We've got a small camera in the shed and with the U6 Pro set to 20mhz and low. It struggles to maintain a connection even though it's usually in the 70-75dbm-ish range. Tried changing to medium...

Erm. I think so yeah. I like Being able to easily add/remove access points as and when needed is handy The amount of information available - but at the same time I can see it being overwhelming and feeling the need to chase 'perfection' The general flexibility of it all in terms of features...

Well what I will say is that with all the logging and detail that the Unifi system shows, I think I've managed to find a phone that has some sort of WIFI defect. Every other device seems to roam fine between the two points, this one likes to hang on to -86dBm. WIFI Speeds on it are all over the...

It'd be overkill I think. The RP-AX58 was a 2x2 on both bands, it worked fine for what it needed to do. The U6-Pro is £65 more expensive too - and a lot bigger!
