Just rebooted 2 more times, no luck. It's a ER-X if that makes any difference.

You have to have offload enabled. A number of things disable the offloading of some packets. Including certain QoS.

Never run the controller for my home ap at home? Curious -

If you have a VM infrastructure at home, and will dedicate (it can generally be turned off) a VM to it, then at home is fine.

The units tie themselves to the unique ID each controller install generates, so you cannot just pop up a new controller, configure it and have the PA get the info. It will not do it.

Like to know more about this... How you have yours set up.

I have a VM dedicated to it on one of our Hyper-V servers colocated in a datacenter. This controller runs all of the UniFi AP for our home office workers and all of our small clients with only 1 AP at a site.

Well yeah, if people leave default creds. Argh.

I have to change my mtu to 1350 I think on 3G. I've seen TCP Window scaling cause similar issues as well (and along with) MTU issues, But I would hope never devices would have issues with it as they both seem to be new enough.

TP-Link switch is working excellent as well!

I've upgraded my office and a client office today with no problems.

Good to hear, I did an update release not too long ago and the difference was night and day. I will look into doing this one now.

You do not have to go all that high on a tower/building to get LoS over 200km.

But realistically, most users of this will be way under 200km. The WISPs will love this thing.

@Hubtech Why no POE? I think that's probably so if you buy a switch it's easier to sell you APs and Phones latter. I love POE but if you aren't using it the switch will be slightly less power efficient. Probably not to much though since there is no actual load using the power rails for it.

I wish that they were not PoE too. Makes them unnecessarily expensive and draw too much power.

This is pretty exciting. Those new switches look great. Loaded with features. They are not stackable, but they do have 10GigE uplinks in them and they are all PoE!

What devices did you guy from Ubiquiti?

@g.jacobse no phone is useful without a PBX. How are you functioning without a PBX today? Are you paying for a 1960s Key System from the phone company?

Uhm yea - about that,...We have a onsite Nortel NorStar system at the main office,.. but I'm pretty sure it is otherwise POTS.... as it 90% of all of our remote sites. It was this way when I started last year - but I fully plan to move us into the modern world...

Nortel made PBXs, long ago. That's just an old PBX.

POTS is the outside lines, doesn't refer to the inside ones. At a minimum that's almost certainly a digital (not IP) phone system. Pretty rough, though.

Untangle is a major resource hog from what I remember.

It is. It isn't routing or switching software, it's just Linux as a full OS with tons of apps running on it. So unlike, say, Vyatta which powers the Ubiquiti which is based on Linux but is extremely light and fast because it is a custom kernel with a custom network stack just for routing, Untangle is the full blow OS with nothing special. So you need tons of horsepower to handle normal routing tasks effectively.

Wonder how much of a difference really. There are rumors of a Ubiquiti phone, so that may be a reason for the PoE only models. Aside from powering their APs.

Like a SIP desk phone?

Yes. Rumors only, but seeing them more lately.

Never followed up on this, whoops. We ended up using VyOS for a few years. But the hardware died on us and was too complex to service. It made no sense as it was cheaper to replace with new Ubiquiti hardware than it was to maintain what we already had. So we ended up going with a UBNT ERL and it has been great.

Out of curiosity, is it the one running the NTG lab?

I'm just assuming that you only have it doing routing and that it can do the basics at full line speed.

Yes, that is what is currently running there. We don't do QoS filtering in the lab, so it handles the speeds just fine.

ERL can do near line speed as long as you don’t do something to hit the CPU.
