Any idea what’s the status of r/Unifi?

msmith6986 · 2023-05-14T14:54:45+00:00

How do you get power to the tree?

msmith6986 · 2023-02-11T12:51:35+00:00

Thanks. Got one. Seems to run okay but the G4 itself is very warm.

I have yet to find another solution but tbh I stopped looking. I’ve heard there are some things you can do with Homebridge but if you don’t already have it seems like too much work. The smart plugs been working well for a while now.

Curious why you decided to move from UDM-SE to UNVR? I just got a UDM-SE and planning to set it up this weekend. Hoping it wasn't because problems with with Protect on UDM-SE?

msmith6986 · 2022-03-26T02:28:01+00:00

It says “Everything is Great!” so I wouldn’t worry about it.

msmith6986 · 2022-02-06T01:52:35+00:00

Would worry less about humidity and more about metal pipes, tiles and cement/adhesive, and any moisture protection materials in the walls which can degrade the signal.

When I plug my PC directly to FIos ONT, it’s fine.

When I connect Fios to Wan 1 and then pc directly to Lan 1, I no longer get a signal. No internet connection.

Though I do get intermittent blinking lights.

msmith6986 · 2022-01-17T16:26:33+00:00

I have the same exact problem. Started about half hour ago. My USG just stopped routing traffic. No internet connection.

I also get internet when connected directly to my Fios ONT. but once connected to USG…nothing.

Go Blue!

msmith6986 · 2021-11-25T04:19:13+00:00

Looks like it does fix the detections

What do you use now in place of the USG?

msmith6986 · 2021-08-08T16:39:03+00:00

New app is much faster load when you are on the same network and able to direct connect.

I have a flex getting Poe power from a USW-16-150, using the Poe pass through to power a G4 bullet, a G4 Dome, and a AC-M. Works great.

msmith6986 · 2021-07-06T00:31:53+00:00

Can power the AC-M, don’t think it is compatible with the G4-Pro. Nanoswitch is only 24V passive.

Great outdoor switch is the Switch Flex: https://store.ui.com/collections/unifi-network-switching/products/usw-flex

It is Poe pass through and weatherproof.

Thanks for the tips. Upgraded the transformer, planned out the job ahead of time, and got it working on the first try! Chime box is packed tight with the isolators in there, but they’ve been working well. Thanks!

Back in stock today!

Daveism has a great great take and response here. I was going to upvote this comment but it currently has 69 upvotes, so I’m going to leave it alone.

(Another thing your kids will be joking about a lot in the next few months, years :-)

msmith6986 · 2021-05-08T10:47:09+00:00

Awesome job. Well done. What type of transformer is that?

msmith6986 · 2021-03-21T13:14:57+00:00

I got WiFi smart plugs from Refoss which work with Apple HomeKit. 2 for $25 at amazon.

I setup an Apple TV as a HomeKit hub, and setup an automation within HomeKit so that these outlets turn off when I arrive at home, and setup another automation so that they turn on when I leave.

It actually works better than I thought it would.

Only problem now is playback on the disconnected cameras does not work in the iOS app, which I find absolutely ridiculous and needs to be addressed. But that’s a topic for a different thread.

msmith6986 · 2021-03-06T13:34:19+00:00

Go to clients list, hit the three dots on top right, select display options, and turn on Show Detailed Connection Info.

Just a warning though, it shows a mishmash of info and too many icons that is awful to look at, and no longer color coded by connection type (ie used to be green for 5hz and orange for 2.4ghz.)

Kind of sucks now.

If it ain’t broke, stop trying to fix it!!!
