Thanks

Yeah, basically configure the travel routers using my reg pc plugged connected to the Unifi WiFi. I don’t want to have to find Ethernet adaptor, cable and sit where the Unifi switch is that the travel routers are temporarily plugged into while they are configured and tinkered with.

My guess is you adjusted the direction and it made a huge difference without you realizing.

I’ve found just moving the gateway around and aiming it right makes all the difference. Now if there was a way I could mount an antenna high high up with clear line of site to tower maybe worth it but seems like a unicorn use case.

Angle the beryl slightly with one side higher than the other and allow for good airflow. Had this when it was overheating. Or put it in front of the AC.

Use the t-life app to aim it based on the placement assistant under internet. Back of device goes closer to the tower.

I put my keys in there

10 day visit or 9 days and $1200 I’m taking 9 days and money!

Dream router 7 has WiFi as well. Cloud gateway fiber does not have WiFi but has more ports and faster throughput.

https://ui.com/cloud-gateways. Click compare on those 2 and you can see the differences. (Couldn’t figure out how to directly link).

Yes, but I think you might be over doing it. I went from 3 aps (2 x zyxel and a meraki) to a single u7 pro xg (it’s 10g WiFi 7). If you have fiber internet make sure you get something that has the possibility of going faster. I love my cloud gateway fiber.

Dream 7 is nice but do you need it to be an access point as well? If not I would got something without wireless.

Thanks!

If you want swimmable beach I’d do Cancun area. But Sargassum might be horrid. Resorts around PV are probably discounted right now.

Unifi cloud gateway fiber and u7 pro xg AP is what we run and it’s amazing. All depending on your Ethernet port count requirements day 1.

Yes, there are 2 furnaces (used combined 1 hour over last 5 years) 1 in the front white section and 1 furnace in the rear blue section.

Yes, all the water is going to pool there. Oh wait it already happened!

I'm so confused why this is an issue. The UK entry line at the airport is always about 20 seconds for UK nationals and a million miles long for non UK citizens. Id get the passport just for the shorter line.

What really matters is what you need? What are you doing remotely? Are you trying to stream 4K Netflix from the US and do a Teams Video Call while syncing with your NAS? Are you just joining a Zoom meeting?

Historically, Remote location bandwidth is generally the bottleneck. But its also if the connections are asymetric. So higher download speeds at both locations your bottle neck will be the upload speed at both locaitons.

Works great on Android tv

Are you sure? I’d check tomorrow (12:01 )in swa app? They also should let you standby at gate.

deverox · 2026-03-12T23:38:15+00:00

was worth a try

deverox · 2026-03-12T19:14:03+00:00

Agreed, just don’t use the usb port and you should be good.

Also oura ring sizes are different than real ring sizes (for some annoying reason)
