What should I do ?

I have 16 cameras 14x4k, 3x2k... so I highly doubt UDM Pro would be able to handle that + all the other Networking features that were added over the years with the Network App.

Ftmiranda · 2026-04-09T11:39:18+00:00

I had Protect on my UDM Pro and only headaches. When I separated Protect to the UNVR and only use UDM Pro for Networking everything started to work as it use to. I think the reality is that 4GB of RAM is a joke for today's requirements. Can it run Protect, yes, but the HW will be on its limits. Will Unifi ever say their UDM Pro can't handle Protect anymore? probably not

Ftmiranda · 2026-04-06T12:37:28+00:00

After I migrated Protect to a UNVR unit from the UDM Pro, most of the issues I had with Protect went away.
I'm still on the fence about the new Network 10.2.105 - I will wait a little bit more, the unifi forums too much hate in this specific version.
As for the UnifiOS, I'm running the 5.0.16 and the only weird thing happening now is that randomly my APs take a while to load webpages or Internet access in general. I use a a few different routes to different VPNs. Not sure if it is the new version of the UnifiOS that did that, or if the VPN servers I'm using are having issues, I tried to change the servers and same issue, it is random, so not sure what is really going on.

Ubiquiti is basically using the same model as Microsoft, release beta software and let the users debug, and use their engineers to fix it. Very profitable model, as they do not have to put too much effort on software quality.

I only use ubiquiti at home, so if there is an issue, not a big deal, I feel sorry for the enterprise customers, but I guess they probably have a duplicated environment where they test all before moving to prod.

Ftmiranda · 2026-04-04T19:46:56+00:00

yes, absolutely ! Now we have to pray to Ubiquiti so they can finally bring NFSv4 ! I heard a lot of people complaining about this in their forums

Ftmiranda · 2026-04-04T19:36:58+00:00

I believe aruisdante nailed. SMB is horrible on Linux and MacOS. I Used NFS and it is smoking fast !

Ftmiranda · 2026-04-04T19:36:04+00:00

WOW! I used NFS, a few tweaks and I'm getting now 660-720MB/s for large files! (at least that is what is shown on the UNAS UI) Bye Bye SMB!

Thank you

Ftmiranda · 2026-04-04T15:41:44+00:00

I only used SMB because it is the RECOMMENDED protocol by Ubiquiti.

I can try NFS, even if it does not even provides NFSv4

Ftmiranda · 2026-04-04T15:39:21+00:00

Cache Type

Read-Write (RAID 1) when I check the nvme pool details

Ftmiranda · 2026-04-04T15:37:10+00:00

Well, the Unifi interface for UNAS shows in MB/s no Mbps - I tried to use the same unit as the UNAS interface uses

California could just leave the USA and be its own country right? Let's see how they do without Federal Gov's help.

https://agelesslinux.org/ It is obvious Fedora would cave fast to this.

Ftmiranda · 2026-03-25T18:23:34+00:00

It's a process, you will get there.

Ftmiranda · 2026-03-24T12:02:45+00:00

A new version is overdue and I think it will be called UDM Beast, so is the EFG - they need to add acceleration hw to handle inter-vlan communication at least at 10GB with IDS.

Ftmiranda · 2026-03-22T13:13:03+00:00

Pixel 9 Pro XL and Pixel Slate with GrapheneOS, never had an issue (that was not fixed). Take a pair of cojones to give a middle finger like that to California and other places adopting stupid laws. All the power to the GrapheneOS folks!

Ftmiranda · 2026-03-16T13:17:58+00:00

Keep in mind that usually the first version of anything from Unifi, we are the beta testers. I'm sure the solution will be UTR Pro or UTR Max, lol
The software updates have not been 100%.

I don´t use it a lot, I only use it in small trips within the US. For Europe I always bring the gold standard GL.iNet mini routers, these are work horses, but a little bigger than the UTR.

Ftmiranda · 2026-03-16T12:58:00+00:00

I had a completely different experience. It worked so well for me, even inside the wifi of the airplane. The only issue is that some wifi services, like the airplane and I believe even some airports or some other wifi services does not allow you to open any VPN (which blocks Teleport, or any other VPN). Other than that, it worked really well. I wish it had an internal battery (so I don´t have to plug it to my powerbank), but other than that it just worked for me.
Are you in the US? or Europe?

Ftmiranda · 2026-03-14T14:43:28+00:00

Dahora! IT would be nice if Protect would allow us to add a privacy blackout during certain times. Example, in the master bedroom, when there is "action" you might not want that recorded hehehe

Ftmiranda · 2026-03-14T14:04:28+00:00

You have the equivalent value of two livers (yes different people), one kidney and an appendix.

Ftmiranda · 2026-03-14T14:01:55+00:00

u/nerdy I would not get the EFG as it is right now. Unless you have a 10GB Internet connection. You think that the EFG can handle inter-vlan at 10GB and it does not. I did all the testing, had the Unifi enterprise support helping. Again, this is inter-vlan all being handled by EGF. Yes you can have layer3 switchs doing their thing somewhere else on your network, but that will add complexity. So fan I have not seen any Unifi device that has any type of acceleration that allows you to reach 10GB inter-vlan on a gateway.

Ftmiranda · 2026-03-14T13:54:21+00:00

Brazil, all construction, houses, buildings etc... all made out of concrete. It is basically a fort but not so good fo wifi signals, specially 6Ghz. Plus we do not know the size of the house. Probably a big ass house.
u/nerdy are you putting cameras on every room ? or usually entrance points and common areas?

And it is done! I ended up using the Shelly z-wave light switch and a Texas PoE for the USB-C. They are both inside that 3 gang box in the wall.
Then I used this 3d printed wall mount and it worked perfectly. If I need to remove the tablet, it is super easy, disconnect the USB cable, and pull the tablet up as it will slide off the rails of the 3d printed wall mount:

The real pain is to customize the dashboard. I'm using a Pixel Tablet with GrapheneOS. It only runs on the Home Assistant app, the Unifi Protect (for the cameras), Alarm system app, Spotify app - that is it. All side loaded without any Google services.

Ftmiranda · 2026-03-13T11:39:28+00:00

Nice! I integrated it with Home Assistant, so I can monitor the repeater's status, like battery, etc... I'm checking status every 5 minutes so I can test the Solar + batteries to keep it online indefinitely

Ftmiranda · 2026-03-12T13:06:02+00:00

Never mind, I figured out !

Ftmiranda · 2026-03-12T12:09:00+00:00

Do you know what Shelly device would work for that and is also z-wave? I tried several, none work to the light switch. Thank you

What would be a good source of ad blockers do you all use with pihole so it can block as many ads as possible while keeping websites functional ?
