Your bottleneck on the Ruckus APs was the Ethernet switches, the 6GHz won't give you a better performance over the 5GHz, just the same performance at shorter distances (until Wi-Fi 7). 10 bucks says you'll get a better speed if you went back to Ruckus APs now that you have faster Ethernet uplink. Also your Wi-Fi speaker, you shouldn't hide the base unit behind the cabinet (it even says this in the manual). You can also fix the channel so it stops flapping around.

Whenever you need to mount anything with keyholes, the best way to do it is to take a piece of clear tape long enough so that it lays over both holes. Then, take a pen or sharpie and color the tape over the depression where the holes are, giving you the exact shape and distance of the holes. Then just take off that piece of tape and attach it to the surface you're mounting the thing to, drilling your mounting holes inside the colored in parts. Perfect distances every time without having to measure.

As someone who has installed a lot of Ruckus and other WiFi systems professionally the outdoor WAPs are much more directional than indoor WAPs. It should be mounted vertically as to broadcast over a driveway or a yard, not pointed at the ground as you end up sending most of your signal and range into the dirt.

If you enable "Band Steering" in the unifi control panel, you might be able to have the APs force your compatible devices to the 6E network.

If you run separate Wi-Fi networks from multiple APs all with the same name You just have to turn on band steering to let the AP and device negotiate which network to connect to. If it's a device that can only connect with 2.4 then it will connect with 2.4 but if the device can go with five or six GHz it will steer that device toward those networks instead. With ubiquiti I've had good experiences with fans during working pretty well.

You actually DON'T want that many AP's. You want maybe a 10-15% overlap of coverage. Any more than that you'll get interferences, and the devices will hop between AP's to often. My guess based on what I see is 2 AP's to cover your house. And then 1 in the garage, on the furthest wall away from the interior house (ie, closest to the garage doors).
@MrGivmedew Жыл бұрын
He probably needs 2 but you can definitely use 3+ and properly get it to work if you play with the thresholds and adjust your power as well. I have 2.4GHz as a completely different SSID and only use it for security equipment and then placed (3) WiFi 6 APs Ethernet backhauled mesh. There isn’t a place in our 1200sqft home that doesn’t get 400mbit/s or higher on our iPhones and iPhone doesn’t have WiFi 6. My laptop gets hella fast speeds. Once apple upgrades to 6E I’ll probably run 2-3 of the same APs they are using in the video.

APs*
@wiebowesterhof Жыл бұрын
In my house, I absolutely needed a lot of APs due to concrete columns and steel in the construction. Even a small wall will absolutely destroy 6GHz. The roaming on these U6Es is very good. I am facing the same frustration with the country-locked 6GHz but easily fixed as per the video. I don't have the problem of wifi leaking through between floors in the building as the slab is about 25-30cm, call it 10 inches roughly, with again plenty of rebar in it. My recommendation would be to use the Unifi tools to map the signal out. The LR6+ isn't as good, it is basically the Lite version. The U6 Long-Range is the one that is the same level, but it is heavy (metal bracket to fit) and runs pretty toasty. That said, even the Lite models are actually not bad; I just prefer the Pro ones or Enterprise due to them getting much more frequent firmware updates and having a very huge install base -> any problems will be found and fixed up more quickly. One catch - Ubiquiti has started verifying the country of credit card vs country of delivery recently (as in, Feb 2023). If it doesn't match and you buy a lot of gear, they may flag as fraud and cancel the order. They really want you to use the local (country) distributor. This, even though I cannot buy 1/5th of the gear where I live. I have a lot of their gear including the (regular) NVR. IF you can buy the equipment, it works very well. I would avoid EA products unless you run a lab or are prepared to put up with some 'fun'. Wifi 6E is very nice when it works, but even if most of your clients use Wifi 5 or 6, or even still Wifi 4 for IOT, these APs have a level of capacity that is unlikely to be a bottleneck even if you have hundreds of clients on a single AP.
