Tech-savvy people say great things about Ubiquiti wifi, but my experience was that it's way more annoying to deal with than the AirPorts I was replacing. So I have doubts about relying on their security solution to "just work," but maybe I'll give it a try. And sure I'm tech-savvy, but I also don't want to deal with things. The real test is at my parents' house, where I don't live but I manage some of their stuff remotely / occasionally in person. I can't babysit whatever gets installed, and they don't understand computers. Like, whenever their internet was having problems, they'd only know how to reboot the router; eventually they automated this task with a lamp timer. But they were fine managing the Ring once I set it up.

  I did a basic UniFi setup at my house back in the fall and it’s been pretty simple and fully reliable. It’s pretty much the apple of home networking and security.

    The Apple of home networking was Apple until they discontinued AirPort. It was much easier.

  It's my understanding that now ubiquiti used to be a good company/solution, but they ruined that recently by introducing a lot of "phoning home"-like "features" for their routers. Given that the tech group is almost always more privacy/security oriented than typical, and that's Ubiquiti's target audience, it was a very poor choice on their part and probably removed a significant portion of their customers. Perhaps the solution that the tech-oriented crowd will move to now is just making things from scratch, I haven't seen the clear consensus on it yet.

    You can opt out of remote/Ubiquiti managed login. This is just FUD. Ubiquiti is still excellent.

      But it's an aggressive default. Tbh I didn't even figure out how to opt out of it, I just grumbled and made the account. It's wifi for crying out loud, should be plug n play. My parents replaced the Ubiqitis themselves when they started having issues I wasn't there to fix, with some no-name Amazon wifi APs. MAC address manufacturer lookup just said "Shenzhen." Plugged in, and they worked.
