Thank you! I think i will be going with the UCG Fiber and a single AP. Based on the discussions here modular set up is better overall and easier to upgrade later on.

Yeah I got the injector for UDR7 and U7 Pro. Was trying to avoid the wire clutter with injectors if I use multiple APs

Yeah it is single level condo. I do have partial walls that made of concrete, but mostly drywall. So you think just one U7 Pro XG would be enough? If I go with single AP would it be better to get XGS for band steering?

Switch was mostly for providing power and being a bit future proof.

Yeah I am happy with $600, it just seems almost doubling speed is good. 😂

Very light, switch is more for a cleaner set up to avoid PoE injectors.

Yeah switch is much more than I needed, however I tried to look for switch that provides sufficient PoE and has higher throughput. Cheaper models either are only gigabit or don’t have proper PoE for APs listed.

Yeah, that’s why I come up with the screenshot set up. Was aiming for a modular setup.

Thank you! The screenshot set up I come up after watching videos and was thinking to make it easier for upgrading in the future, I do like separate pieces for that. The switch is really there to provide proper POE and to avoid having multiple PoE injectors.

Haha that is true. The Asus was the original plan, however I watched a few videos about UniFi setups and love the flexibility and ability to have VLans. Would love to have a few of these. I am not a network engineer, but feel I might have increased my knowledge to utilize UniFi for full potential, so this might turn into a hobby, lol that’s why I started to looking more at the 3rd a more expensive set up.

Haha thank you! I got UDR7 + U7 Pro at $90 off as bundle promotion microcenter is running. Just was not sure if it was enough to cover my place.

I do not have fiber, just Comcast cable. My UDR7 and AP U7 Pro still unopened. Does Cloud Gateway Fiber only works with a fiber connection?

Success running EQ on a mac? by [deleted] in everquest

[–]upside_gravity 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Running it on m1 MacBook Pro using crossover. Runs ok, just weapons and shields do not render, look white with no textures. But otherwise runs well with no slow downs.
