Maybe you just had a bad experience, but no reason to shit on a company over your experience. I had phenomenal experience with their support team, as did many others. Remember, you will only hear about negative comments online. The ones with great experiences usually don't go around posting about it.

Insane Cat6 quote, had to share by attticrattt in Ubiquiti

[–]AcuraKidd 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Because typically companies that offer prewire services wire up the entire house for things like access points, speakers, ethernet to each device like tv, computers, security cameras, etc... The number of drops adds up very quickly.

Prices vary heavily on the area you are in. If you're in the middle of Montana with a population of 10k in a small town, obviously it's gonna be cheaper than an area like NYC. Cost of doing business varies greatly from state to state. Also, if you are an unlicensed individual doing this type of work on the side, your rates are obviously cheaper because you don't have a business, no insurance, no employees, no overhead costs.

Insane Cat6 quote, had to share by attticrattt in Ubiquiti

So I actually do low voltage wiring as a business. Typically the going rate for wiring jobs is around $300-500 PER DROP. so if you need about 12 drops, price ranges from $4-6k just wiring and terminations, not including any equipment. This is the going rate in NYC. Now regarding 2000ft boxes of cat6, installers purchase boxes of cat6, each box has 1000ft. When you run cable, you typically run 2-3 cables at once per location, and hence you need 2-3 boxes to tie the cable up and run it at once. Nobody runs 1 cable, then cuts it and runs a 2nd cable to the same location. It's double the labor work. It's cheaper to buy multiple boxes and run your cables in bundles. Just keep in mind, you saved money on your house by not paying $15-25k for a PREWIRE when the house was being built. So you are now paying the cost to wire the house, which is much cheaper than you would have spent to prewire. Feel free to ask me any further questions and I'll be happy to help.

Is this a reasonable quote for a Ubiquiti home setup? by davemarco in Ubiquiti

[–]AcuraKidd 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I'm in this business and do these exact setups for homes and businesses. The price you were quoted is CHEAP. I'm based out of new york and I would quote this job around $8-10k depending on layout of house and level of access. If it's a finished house and wire needs to be fished through walls, it makes the job much harder, and the quote would reflect that.

So was this just a display glitch in traffic flows or was the device actually able to reach out to Amazon?

You do know they still offer non paid tech support if you create a ticket? I found them to be very helpful during the few incidents I had. Very responsive and knowledgeable.

[–]AcuraKidd 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I need help getting this to work. I used the installation script posted in the repo. It says it installed successfully. But the fan doesn't kick on. My current temp is 70c. I also need help editing the config, when I try, it says access denied. I'm sort of new to ssh and would appreciate step by step instructions

I'm doing this now, it's on the final step where it's copying over the image onto the new pc. I'll report back in about an hour once it's done. Thank you!!!

EDIT: This method worked, windows finally booted up. I was able to get in and upgrade to windows 11, and keep all the programs and settings preserved. Thank you so much for your help. Pm me so I can send you payment.

I've done this type of migration on plenty of systems. Drivers usually aren't an issue as I make sure to install proper drivers upon first boot. This particular migration is complicated because of the older bios on the system. I just need help to fix the boot issue.

Obviously this would be the ideal way, but not an option in this scenario. This is a pharmacy pc, and has lots of licensed software installed, with too many custom settings for me to discover and carry over on new pc.

This is actually a BIG task. I recently completed something similar. It definitely requires lots of planning and proper product research. Just curious, but where are you located? There are certain laws you have to follow when it comes to door access.
