Ubiquity, for all its faults, is kit I can buy and it works today. Until you enable hardware acceleration and it corrupts your traffic mysteriously. Or maybe you don't want your network gear to phone home. Maybe you don't want to overheat and kill its internal storage. Maybe you want the PoE to be configured in a way that you're going to fry things accidentally. I had to look up what the fuck Oceteon even is and it looks like an embedded platform. I can't see any ready-made solution for the things Uni-Fi does, so that means it's roll-your-own. No thanks. If you don't know what the fuck I'm talking about maybe instead of swearing and whining like a jackass you should look it up. Edit: If anyone else out there is interested in defending Ubiquiti without knowing anything about their products - Cavium's Oceton is a MIPS64 SoC for network appliances that Ubiquiti uses in their EdgeRouter Lite lineup (and potentially others). It's also found in a variety of hardware from vendors like D-Link and SonicWall. It's a bit power hungry (you can cook an egg on an ERL), but is supported by NetBSD and OpenBSD just fine. Ubiquiti is like the Mongo of networking appliances. They have a lot of checkboxes on their datasheets, but not all of the features are well developed.
