Ubiquiti can get expensive for a home user, but yeah. It's rock solid gear, truthfully advertised and still a bargain at that price point.

- eltoozero 9y agoNot expensive, a single UAP-AC-PRO is maybe $125, add a mikrotik hEx RB750GL and you're golden. The 802.11N Unifi gear is <$200 for a three-pack and works of MikroTik passive PoE like the RB260, 5-port gigabit PoE with an SFP cage. MikroTik and Unifi is an unbeatable performance/price combo for individuals, large homes and business scaling up to medium sized and multi-site deployments. With those prices and features you can affordably dog-food the setup and support your friends and family.
- mediocrejoker 9y agoThis is more or less the exact setup I'm using (Ubiquiti AP and RB750). I've only had it for a few months but neither have required rebooting once they were set up and the performance is good enough to make my 150 Mbps connection the bottleneck. I also enjoy the level of control that comes with having separate devices for cable modem / router / wifi AP, for example being able to ssh into the router to configure things like port forwarding.
- exelius 9y agoI went with a full Ubiquiti setup (USG + CloudKey + UAP-AC-PROs) because yeah. Spent more than I should have, but the USG is actually a great dual-wan router. Already had a PoE switch for the APs though.
