You have to run a unifi server or get a cloud key. That enables advanced guest access, deep packet inspection, and other stuff. There's nothing as simple as what you describe per se. It's basically enterprise class networking. I originally got it because I thought I would use the mesh networking.. but the standard AP has been way more sufficient in coverage that I don't need to mesh. I like the form factor too, I have ethernet in my house and I was able to use one of the small PoE in wall APs.
The best mesh network though would be through a smoke alarm setup. Then you could do backhaul over the power line and then you'd have WiFi everywhere. It would work really well for newer construction where hard wired smoke alarms are mandatory.
- vvanders 8y ago> backhaul over the power line Argh, please don't proliferate ethernet over power lines. They cause horrible RFI by turning every unshielded power line into a broadband antenna[1].

- Jailbird 8y agoOK, I was hoping others had perhaps found something I'd not, even though I'd tried to read whatever documentation I could. Thanks, though.
