Affordable 30Mbps unifi below RM100 for poorer folks, others get free upgrade says Telekom - Business News


Introducing the UniFi mobile application. Use the UniFi app to:

- Access the UniFi Controller to manage entire networks of devices while on the go.

- Provision a UniFi Access Point (AP) for basic functionality without configuring a UniFi Controller.

Requirement:

The UniFi AP must be physically connected via an Ethernet cable to a network that provides IP addresses using DHCP.

How To:

1. Ensure that the UniFi AP is in its factory default state, displaying a solidly white LED.

2. Log into your Ubiquiti community or SSO (Single Sign-On) account for backup/restore functionality. (If you wish, you can skip this login.)

3. The UniFi AP should appear on the device list if your device Wi-Fi is enabled and both your device and UniFi AP are on the same layer-2 network. (This is similar to the device discovery feature for other Ubiquiti products.)

4. If your device Wi-Fi is not enabled (or your device is on another subnet), then select scan QR code from the menu. Note: This is available only for models with the QR code sticker.

I can walk up and down the steps and into every room in the house and even out to the front or back porch and my ipad never has any glitches or slowdowns or pauses. That was absolutely not true with the WiFi router that came from my DSL provider. I exercise by walking around the house with my ipad. I include the staircase on our old house and other, lesser routers won't keep up with you the way the Ubiquiti does. I have usable signal on the front porch and back porch and nearly to the barn. I even have signal in the basement, two floors down from the device.

Setup is easy and tons of people on the internet have helpful web pages on how to do it.

It only seemed expensive when I debated buying it. Now that I have it in service and it does exactly what I bought it to do, it seems like money very well spent. Definitely worth the money. When I put WiFi in the barn, it will be Ubiquiti gear that goes in.

Some WiFi devices have weaker radios than others. They will be able to "hear" the Ubiquiti, but lack the guts to talk back loud enough for it to hear them. My ipad lets me roam freely. My iphone, with less battery and perhaps less radio output on WiFi, cannot go quite as far. I can go up and down the stairs with the iphone - a very noticeable improvement - but not out on the porches. The laptops love the Ubiquiti, gaming is now enabled in every room of the house.
