    Looking for opinions re. Ubiquiti or something else

    Just a followup on this. I have been running the UCG Ultra now for two weeks. It has been night and day from the experience with the UX Express. The UCG Ultra is fast and responsive. I don't see the CPU or memory spikes that i was seeing while using the UX as a router. And i am also running...

    Great suggestions. I dont currently use vlans. But i will be setting up one of the UX as AP using LAN uplink. The other UX doesnt have a LAN line near it yet. So it stays in wireless uplink mode. Changing that requires climbing around in the attic. i have been putting that off. :eek:

    That is better uptime then i have with the Express. I usually have to restart monthly since it gets unresponsive to the management access. It still passes traffic, but i cant log in to manage it until i restart. I am looking hard at the Ultra right now. I dont need NVR.

    How long have you had your Ultra? Have you had any issues with it?

    Looking for opinions re. Ubiquiti or something else

    Well, when you get into the smart home stuff and you use Wifi instead of zigbee the number of devices goes up pretty quick. Granted, most of the smart home stuff is not high bandwidth. In fact most of that is internal only. No Inet access. But between two Rokus, two Meta Oculus, my work VPN...

    So this might be TLDR but some background is required. Jan 2024 i purchased a 2 pack of Asus Zenwifi XT8 AX6600 HW version 2 based on online reviews to replace my TP-Link Archer. Had the expected trouble with the Asus and tried solutions after i found this site. Nothing worked. Since gnuton is...

    So, after 2 1/2 weeks of stability i had my first outage yesterday. Internet access dropped out both for ethernet and wifi. I logged in to the admin console and saw nothing in the logs, Internet connection showed as up with traffic, then the admin console dropped out and was inaccessible...

    Problems with XT8 AX6600 (RT-AX95Q) HW ver 2 running stock firmware.

    So is it the wireless mesh causing the problem or the smart connect or something else? There were good reviews about this system when I first looked at it but that was before I found this site and before I found out there are 2 hardware versions. If there is a config that works I can get there...

    Problems with XT8 AX6600 (RT-AX95Q) HW ver 2 running stock firmware.

    i decided today to revert back to the january firmware 3004.388.24609 as this was what was on it when i bought it. It ran fine for over a month. It seemed like the issues started happening after the 3/19 update 3004.388.24621. So i reinstalled it and the node and reconfigured all my network...

    Problems with XT8 AX6600 (RT-AX95Q) HW ver 2 running stock firmware.

    Hello all. i purchased the Asus Zenwifi XT8 AX6600 bundle in feb 24. This bundle consisted of one router and one AI Mesh "node". Everything ran really well until last week when the router started having intermittent connection failures. Essentially connectivity would drop out. Either wifi or...
