Like for example i have switches that get confused and started reporting things are connected to ports 57-62 (on a 24 port switch) and switching them wrong, etc

Like for example i have switches that get confused and started reporting things are connected to ports 57-62 (on a 24 port switch) and switching them wrong, etc.
UI they have been slowly screwing up more and more for years (How many years are they into the "new UI" migration for the controller?).
But the actual switching is pretty basic stuff (and a separate hardware chip they are driving that is not hard to drive), and simply shouldn't be going wrong in this way.
I've also got a UDM-SE and UDM-Pro that seem to have hardware issues on the SFP+ uplink when connected in certain ways (and won't break 500mbps upstream) no matter what SFP+ module is connected (fiber, dac, etc) if the LAN SFP+ port is connected at 10gbps. All the same modules work in every other router (mikrotik, etc) connected the exact same way.
(yes, before HN tries to debug this, IDS/etc is all turned off. There are no nft rules, no nothing, i have debugged this to death through the actual shell). Others have had the same issue.
They also have an $1800 ptz camera that can't follow objects even when it detects them (This is 100% basic functionality of a PTZ camera, especially at this pricepoint), despite promising it for years.
I have lots of these kinds of "why is basic functionality broken or missing" stories. Ubiquiti gets it out the door, says they'll fix it all in post, and moves on to the next thing.
They aren't a hardware manufacturer, they are a bad AAA game developer :)
- bradstewart 5y agoCan confirm, same issues with SFP+ on my UDM-Pro. The software updates for this thing have been so bad the last year, incredibly buggy, it's infuriating. My current favorite was the update to the AP Pro APs that broke everything if you were using a wireless uplink (I was using one to bridge a semi-decent signal to my garage). Clients connected to that AP had zero connectivity to anything else, despite the Controller saying "all good!"
- mrjin 5y agoGee... I'm glad I walked away from it. I was about to go for UDM-Pro when updating my home network devices. Then I read some HN saying they were putting ads to the console pages. But that wasn't really about product itself. What you mentioned were really really serious product issues in areas I suppose almost every other vendors are rock solid.
