Have this behind a Unify USG, plugged into LAN2 using included PoE injector. Will be 802.3at/af PoE when I get a Unify switch

It's already been said that this is a great AP and very powerful when combined with other Unify products. And I 2nd that, getting great 2G/5G connection speeds.

The most pleasing thing for me was that I expected to need two but installed the first on 2nd floor ceiling of 2-storey 240sqM house and get a good connection in every corner of the house and even when I'm next door!

I've used the guest network feature so I don't have to give other our WPA key to visitors and this works okay, it's an advanced feature...view more Have this behind a Unify USG, plugged into LAN2 using included PoE injector. Will be 802.3at/af PoE when I get a Unify switch

I've used the guest network feature so I don't have to give other our WPA key to visitors and this works okay, it's an advanced feature so takes some set up and I don't use it enough to buy an SSL certificate for the guest portal for example to make it work flawlessly but it's great to have.

Have had to reboot it once due to clients preferring 2G for some reason but it had been running continuously for 6 weeks, reboot fixed this and will monitor.

This is the single best tech gadget I've ever owned. Has sorted out any WiFi range issues from crappy ISP routers and serves a 280 square house without needing more than one AP. Simple setup though there are plenty of good management options under the hood if you're that way inclined This is the single best tech gadget I've ever owned.

Really great product. I have purchased 3 of these APs to replace a mess of cheaper routers and APs that shared the same SSID in principle, but never that smoothly. This was money well spent! No more wifi drop outs, much more stable user experience. The setup is ridiculously easy, about 30 seconds to setup each device once plugged in. I configured everything through the iOS app, which is great for monitoring my network, knowing which devices are connected to what clients, etc. And yes the LED ring can be turned off. Very highly recommended! Really great product. I have purchased 3 of these APs to replace a mess of cheaper routers and APs that shared the same SSID in principle, but never that smoothly.

I have PoE running to this in a hallway near my front door, and it easily covers my whole 220sqm house. I can't quite believe how good it is. A TV running netflix which is about 15 metres away through a wall, and a laptop in a bedroom through 3 walls (1 brick), gets great speeds with low latency. It's worth the effort to get this mounted centrally and run PoE to it. I recommend Ubiquiti to everyone and will probably put it in my parents' and in-laws house too.

Ubiquiti deservedly have a fantastic reputation, and this product is no exception. I have two of them covering a very large 2 storey home, never miss a beat.

I originally bought this device to install inside our ceiling to solve an issue we were having with devices at the other end of the house being cut off whenever someone streamed video near to the existing AP. Installed it on the hottest day of summer... it must have been a good 50'C up there... according to the data sheet the operating temperature range is up to 70'C and so far it has been completely stable. The controller software is very handy - lets you see what devices are connected to which UniFi APs, current utilisation, and a heap of other stuff. Was so impressed that I then bought another of these to replace our original AP to solve...view more I originally bought this device to install inside our ceiling to solve an issue we were having with devices at the other end of the house being cut off whenever someone streamed video near to the existing AP.

Was so impressed that I then bought another of these to replace our original AP to solve an issue with devices not roaming sensibly. Now devices largely connect to the nearest AP, roam seamlessly as we move around the property, and we have no issues with connection stability. All in all, very impressed and would recommend.

I bought this access point for home use, and it's great, if you have the time and patience to set it up!

Make sure you have a switch that can output fast enough if you buy this standalone.

It comes with a Power over Ethernet adapter so don't worry about powering it, if you don't have a PoE switch.

But note that PoE is the output on that box, I assumed otherwise which confused me for a bit. I bought this access point for home use, and it's great, if you have the time and patience to set it up!

The Unifi AC Pro is a lovely bit of kit (speaking as a homeuser, not a corporate network installer, mind).

*Very* easy to set up with the freely downloadable & cross platform software. It's great to see companies supporting *nix (yes, it even sort of runs on BSD).

It was simplicity itself to install the controller software under Arch Linux, and it's immediately obvious how and where settings are supposed to be set. Good UI.

Sure, there are myriad options in case you really want to get your fingers dirty, but in 10 minutes I had the device installed, firmware updated, provisioned and serving our private LAN and guest VLAN over the air...view more The Unifi AC Pro is a lovely bit of kit (speaking as a homeuser, not a corporate network installer, mind).

All in all very impressive & I'm highly likely to purchase another Unifi AP for downstairs to allow proper integrated wifi coverage i.e. no dead spots, seamless hand-off and 5Ghz band steering (currently using 5Ghz on an ASUS rt-68 with the same SSID's as 2.4GHz, but in the absence of band steering, it's a bit hit and miss as to which band clients will connect on).

Combined with pfSense as our router, *this* is how home networking should be!

Really difficult to set-up; works for 24 hours but then always needs re-starting; not recommended. Really difficult to set-up; works for 24 hours but then always needs re-starting; not recommended.

The coverage is not so good unfortunately even when I configured it to maximum power. I have a UAP-LR, the coverage is so good that I can receive anywhere in a three levels house. I bought the UAP AC PRO hoping that it will give me more speed and bandwidth. The best I could receive is 400 Mbps and difficult to connect in some areas on one level up from where it is installed. It does not reconnect as good as the UAP-LR as well. It is a more expensive model but not worth it. The coverage is not so good unfortunately even when I configured it to maximum power.

Fantastic Product performance-wise has never let me down. Perfect if you are in the Unifi eco-system already.

I currently own 3 of these throughout my home which covers a 3 story structure, and a large dwelling outside. It also covers quite a considerable distance outside (something I didn't factor in when purchasing). My entire property is nearly 20 acres of land and I get a strong signal pretty much everywhere.

My one stickler is my 2nd AP suffered a hardware fault exactly 13 months after I purchased it which was beyond its warranty. I am unsure if this was due to a firmware upgrade or not but the AP stopped receiving traffic. it was...view more Fantastic Product performance-wise has never let me down.

My one stickler is my 2nd AP suffered a hardware fault exactly 13 months after I purchased it which was beyond its warranty. I am unsure if this was due to a firmware upgrade or not but the AP stopped receiving traffic. it was broadcasting but was not allowing clients onto the network. According to the official forums, this is a common hardware fault.

This did not stop me from purchasing another one and continuing to use the product - the value proposition completely outweighs the potential risk of buying another AP with the hardware fault.

Used for on a multi story house for about a month now,
placed the AP on the top floor and works perfectly on all floors,
no drop outs or dead spots
Easy and straight forward to install, does needs some puzzling to work well overall

Only recommend that the products should include a tool to release the plastic mounting bracket. Used for on a multi story house for about a month now,
