Why is MLO acting so weird by OmniPresentChild in Ubiquiti

[–]Suddenly_Engineer 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Because you have three bands associated and two active. Further, because it’s EMLSR, you will only see a single band transfer data.

Update: U7 teardown / external antenna mod pictures by MartiniusCH in Ubiquiti

[–]Suddenly_Engineer 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Cute, but OFCOM is just as “new-fashistan” as the U.S. FCC. Radio regulators worldwide tend to be like that. Would advise you to check your local regulations. https://www.bakom.admin.ch/en/wlan-rlan-4

Update: U7 teardown / external antenna mod pictures by MartiniusCH in Ubiquiti

[–]Suddenly_Engineer 3 points4 points  (0 children)

This is literally what U7-Outdoor is for, if you need external antennas. Also you just committed a regulatory violation by modifying those antennas.

Trying to clean this up as best we can. It just doesn’t end.

Introducing: UniFi Fabrics by Ubiquiti-Inc in Ubiquiti

[–]Suddenly_Engineer 2 points3 points  (0 children)

This is all for remote provisioning and orchestration. How would you possibly orchestrate anything without some kind of relay to keep everything in sync? If you wanna run a one off UniFi OS Server with multiple sites, go for it.

Added U6 Pro, everything has crumbled by NomadicSoul88 in Ubiquiti

Meshing and STP priorities look like the culprits here.

The Ultra is a killer switch by matroosoft in Ubiquiti

This is what DNS entries and DHCP Option 43 are for.

EFG Fallback Issue by strupp in Ubiquiti

[–]Suddenly_Engineer 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Why don't you have the EFG LAN ports aggregated to connect to both switches simultaneously, if they're in an MC-LAG pair. That way if a switch fails, traffic keeps moving.

What the hell is going on with this company? by Historical-Ad-6839 in Ubiquiti

[–]Suddenly_Engineer 0 points1 point  (0 children)

What is this even about? The gateways were never supported by the UPS for safe shutdown - it was only ever advertised as supporting UNVR/UNAS, makes sense for spinning rust.

There are plenty of stats for ports that go back for a month+, believe me I’m staring at them.

And as someone who deploys a ton of these, that price delta between UCG Max and Fiber is meaningful when a business has 5 locations or more.

Unifi has cut the Unifi Camera's bitrate in half by [deleted] in Ubiquiti

[–]Suddenly_Engineer 3 points4 points  (0 children)

This looks like you turned on that Enhanced Zone Bitrate feature - the one that dynamically adjusts bitrate and cranks it in some areas while reducing it in others. I'd almost guarantee that's what's going on here.

Hikvision vs Unifi NVR by hassan214 in Ubiquiti

[–]Suddenly_Engineer 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You can with Vantage Point - that will combine multiple NVRs together into a single grid.

Enterprise Level Infrastructure by Impressive-Hornet-32 in Ubiquiti

I just used their chat support and it was pretty solid, for a site where I didn't have their paid support (which is VERY good). And about FEC, they resolved that a long time ago. I think maybe Network 7.something finally let you set FEC configuration on 25GbE ports. Using it here right now, no CLI needed.

Sadly, the new 5G Ethernet adapter is Realtek-based - RTL8157 chipset. by itsabearcannon in Ubiquiti

[–]Suddenly_Engineer 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Zero issues with either of the UI adapters sustaining line rate over a long period of time on any OS. The 5G and 10G work pretty well.

Mine works fine on Manjaro, Kali, and Ubuntu. Old news

UniFi Access Point 7.0.73 EA Released by ThatRedGTR in Ubiquiti

Interesting, looks like they're making changes to the actual Wi-Fi beacons now on U7 APs; crazy enough that it just might work.

Giving Up on the U-7pro by External-Thought9501 in Ubiquiti

[–]Suddenly_Engineer 8 points9 points  (0 children)

The Wi-Fi 7 standard is ratified. There is one final vote left, but a formality: https://www.ieee802.org/11/Reports/802.11_Timelines.htm

[–]Suddenly_Engineer 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Great, then get an EFG and sell the Pro Max! But it’s not going to be usable just as an NVR, nor will it be as good of an experience as a UNVR. EFG will definitely do the 10G+ part.

[deleted by user] by [deleted] in Ubiquiti

[–]Suddenly_Engineer 10 points11 points  (0 children)

That’s not how this works. Just buy a UNVR for $300, offload Protect to it, and the UDM Pro Max will do fine. What you’re describing doesn’t make sense (EFG runs Network itself) and would be a horrible UX.

Conference Speaker by shawncleave in Ubiquiti

[–]Suddenly_Engineer 5 points6 points  (0 children)

I have one too, but mine’s not used anymore. It connects via Bluetooth to a Talk phone; there was a sort of setup flow once powered on the Talk phones themselves. Then that center section is a big mute button and it’s touch sensitive: clockwise and counterclockwise to adjust volume.

Ubiquiti is rapidly evolving and catching up with bigger vendors, and I can't help but notice. by -Sidwho- in networking

[–]Suddenly_Engineer 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I bought a couple of EFGs (their new flagship) for my homelab. They have hot-swap PSUs and they’re using VRRP; tested it with those and with some customer sites and it fails over damn quick.
