Ubiquiti's Unifi line seems riddled with issues. Why would I want an account or the internet involved in any part of my network control?
However, I am quite happy with the Edgerouter series. I just wish it got more updates. The last update to EdgeOS is 6 months old. I don't like my security gateway not being patched with weekly security updates.
- andrewxdiamond 5y agoI don’t think an account is actually required for UniFi, although it’s the default route. It enables remote management, which is an nice feature for techies helping parents with wifi problems.
- rootusrootus 5y agoI don't have any cloud account to run my home network, I just have a VM running the Unifi software locally. I'm quite happy with the setup. USG to route packets, PoE switch with three AC-Pro access points hanging off it.
- sgtnoodle 5y agoIt was a pain to figure out, but I was able to set up my own instance of the management software without going through their servers. At one point I had to SSH into the AP and wipe its nonvolatile memory... Of course, I don't remember how to do it at this point, so hopefully I don't ever need to change the settings on my AP. It's been working completely issue free for a couple years now.
