  • They are making fantastic products for crazy low prices now.
  • Its more than fantastic because the price is so reasonable
  • Nice new price point for AC wifi dual radio access point by Ubiquiti Networks
  • 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
  • They provide great coverage at a surprisingly good price

Reviews around ap (4.29 of 5)

  • Loved this ap soo much worked for my house well until September it crashed and ruined every one in my houses mood the software is up to
  • Hands down one of the best wireless AP currently available on the market.
  • This AP also lacks a web interface so you cannot make changes to the AP without either the controller software or iOS/Android App
  • Loved this ap soo much worked for my house well until September it crashed and ruined every one in my houses mood the software is up to
  • Great AP as long as you have the hardware to run the manager software.

Reviews around device (4.28 of 5)

  • Forums show this is a fairly common issue with these devices -- dead after the PoE is stopped and then started again
  • Awesome device for fixing Wi-Fi issues with range, stability and management
  • If this had a button, it would have been a perfect device, as is it's not a great for custom firmware, especially if you aren't very technical
  • These access points provide the capability to exercise a little more control over your network than regular consumer-grade WAP: I have three different SSIDs - one for parents and critical devices such as our AppleTV and big-screen TV, one for the kids, and one for infrastructure devices such as security cameras and smoke detectors.
  • The UniFi puts out a strong signal in both the 2.4G and 5G bands, and my devices are working at full speed in the bedroom when they would previously lose connection

Reviews around access (4.27 of 5)

  • Further we bought a few cheap wireless access points and since they did a better job we still had hard times as the number of guest increased
  • Great access point, unifi setup tool could be challenging for those that are non technical
  • * 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
  • Best Wireless Access Point for a house or small office.

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
  • I've used this before, terrific value and excellent performance.
  • 5G performance is no better than it was on my router unless I turn the power up to high, which I don't want to do, and then it is marginally better.
  • The range on this device is excellent as well as the performance
  • The configuration was easy and the performance is fantastic

  • 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!
  • The device was easy to install and the I liked the management capabilities; however the range is horrible
  • but honestly, the range is just so poor that I don't even
  • It's very easy to setup, has a lot of features and the range and speeds are great.

  • we now have better control and a stronger signal for Wifi
  • As far as my wifi weak signal problem, this AP solved it

Reviews around speed (3.99 of 5)

  • Range is great, better than my old Linksys WRT160N, and speeds are much better
  • My speeds throughout my 1600 sq ft house average about 90 mbps down, as opposed to the 15 down before
  • 3 meters from the AC the top speed I could get was about 500 up / 500 down using 802.11ac
  • This AP has much better wireless speed due to the new 802.11 protocols but in the 3 weeks it has been
  • I installed two of these pretty, enterprise-grade APs on opposite walls of the two floors of my house, and my wireless speeds are insane.

Reviews around address (1.95 of 5)

  • You are still going to need a router to act as a DHCP server to issue IP addresses to all your wired & wireless devices
  • So the only way I could get it to work was through a static IP address.
  • 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
  • Works exactly as I expected
  • It was simple enough to get the up and running even assigning Static IP addresses.

Reviews around ip (1.00 of 5)

  • It was simple enough to get the up and running even assigning Static IP addresses.

  • So the only way I could get it to work was through a static IP address.
  • - Set a CNAME Record to point "unifi" to AWS External Static IP

Reviews around 24v (1.00 of 5)

  • 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 am using 802.3af/A from my UniFi switch, although it will also support Ubiquiti's proprietary 24V passive PoE.
  • 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
  • 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
