Reviews around price (4.70 of 5)

  • Nice new price point for AC wifi dual radio access point by Ubiquiti Networks (ubnt).We deploy lots of their AP-LR and AC models - jumped on this AC Lite model (from a different supplier) -- only issue we had was having to upgrade the controller to the latest version so it could adopt this unit flawlessly

Reviews around coverage (4.39 of 5)

  • Was previously using the WiFi on an Apple AirPort Extreme, which wasn't bad, but I always had spots in my home with poor coverage
  • You get great coverage and even better connection speeds.
  • The AC-Lite system is just the thing for a real geek that is frustrated by slow speeds or spotty coverage.
  • Coverage was terrible, roaming barely worked, and everyone in the house complained
  • No more dead zones with the previous multiple brands and devices, 2.4G everywhere and 5G coverage almost everywhere through multiple walls.

Reviews around ap (4.31 of 5)

  • This AP also lacks a web interface so you cannot make changes to the AP without either the controller software or iOS/Android App
  • Still, only docking one star for that because I love the AP so much otherwise.
  • Had the same issue with the UniFi AP after some time and thought this hardware upgrade would help.
  • Hands down one of the best wireless AP currently available on the market.
  • Great AP as long as you have the hardware to run the manager software.

Reviews around access (4.27 of 5)

  • * my pants when I though I lost access though, because there is no external buttons on this AP, meaning the only way to restore defaults for openWRT would be to hook up a serial console or inject a magic packet to get it to boot in TFTP mode
  • Excellent access point, had it for ~6 months, just works
  • Perfect less problematic and cheap access points in the market!
  • Also: when you power the unit on and off, your going to get Rogue Access Point "YOUR
  • Best access point I have ever owned as far as performance

Reviews around performance (4.24 of 5)

  • So while they do give you more technical insight they actually do not improve Wifi performance at all
  • The range on this device is excellent as well as the performance
  • I've used this before, terrific value and excellent performance.
  • It looks good, easy to setup, and has great performance thus far.

Reviews around range (4.20 of 5)

  • Range is great, better than my old Linksys WRT160N, and speeds are much better
  • While the hotspot is great and all, for the money I just expected much more as far as range and speed were concerned (though mostly speed, as the range is adequate).
  • but honestly, the range is just so poor that I don't even
  • It was easy to install and set up, the range is good, and it is super stable
  • Great range and easy to setup with the unifi android app!

Reviews around address (1.95 of 5)

  • It will broadcast 1 SSID for 2.4 and 5ghz so your users arent confused as to what they should be connecting to and have many other features you normally have to pay a lot for (IE load balancing, the ability to charge for access and very detailed information on
  • So the only way I could get it to work was through a static IP address.
  • It was simple enough to get the up and running even assigning Static IP addresses.
  • As a final step I set the AC-LITE's ip to a static address on my wired router then verified I could log in via ssh and list attached mac addresses using the mca-dump command
  • You are still going to need a router to act as a DHCP server to issue IP addresses to all your wired & wireless devices

Reviews around 24v (1.00 of 5)

  • I am using 802.3af/A from my UniFi switch, although it will also support Ubiquiti's proprietary 24V passive PoE.
  • FYI, the 2 Lite that I received on 10/18/2017 were tested Nov 2016 and do support 802.3af POE, not just the 24V passive
  • I was shipped the older 24V passive PoE version, not the currently shipping dual voltage units that will plug directly into a current Unifi PoE switch
  • It was sold by Amazon.com LLC and shipped from Newark, CA.YMMV, but I saw a bunch of reviewers complaining with the 24V passive POE
