One thing I like about ubiquity aps is that you can configure them with whichever controller you like and then remove/disconnect the controller but the AP still runs on its own. For years.
However, I wonder if this is true in either repeated or multi-ap setups ? That is, if I configure an AP and then one of those wall-mounted directional ubiquity repeaters with another AP on the other end … shared SSID … can that configuration run with no controller?
I would think it could but .. I have not tried…
- thrashh 4y agoI have a multi-AP setup (but no repeater, all Ethernet backhaul) and I’ve never even set up a controller. I just used the iOS app once per AP
- nirav72 4y agoYes. I have two unifi AC pros and two inwall APa. For the longest time , I had the controller as just an app that I launched on my desktop whenever I needed to change something or apply an update the APs. Then I would shut it down. Now I run the controller in a docker container , so the APs autoupdate. But to your original question, always running the controller isn’t required.
- joshka 4y agoI just found out the other day that the original AC-LR is no longer supported in the most recent controller software and hasn't been for a year or so. It still works though. Probably time to upgrade :D
