I was researching the differences between the pro and the nano just before you posted this video, ironically.. you would have to use the pro in an outdoor setting since the nano is indoor only.. but I feel like the nano would be more appropriate in a new install just for the benefit of future proofing the wireless network as much as possible without spending twice as much for the HD..however, I do like the secondary port on the pro and the HD that the nano is lacking..
I'd use that model in the houses we remodel or build from the ground up. Our jobs scale between 3000 to 26,000 square feet and they hand-off seamlessly! I like the recessed mount and bet I could use that in 5/8 drywall. Nice unit. #ubntforlife #ubntcloudkey Chris, you have a great channel! From here in Fort Worth, Texas - keep it up.
Oh and I learned the hard way. You put 48 to a lite and it's done. LOL
Chris: Just a note when talking about Wi-Fi speeds: marketed speeds on the packaging (like 1300 Mbps for the AC-PRO and 1733 Mbps for the two HD's) are always full duplex. However, since Wi-Fi can only do half-duplex (each Wi-Fi unit takes turn transmitting), you only get half the marketed speeds on the package st best. So it doesn't matter that the nanoHD only has one Gigabit port, because the theoretical max speed is only half of 1733 anyway.
This is just one example of this practice however. Companies also have have a habit of adding the 2.4G and 5G speeds together when marketing a router or AP's max speed. Now this is more acceptable, since the AP can use both bands at the same time, just not when communicating with the same unit.
But anyway the point is that the gigabit port is gonna be more than enough for the nanoHD.
Good point!
David Nichols r/choosingbeggars
It is not full duplex speed. It is just the aggregate of the bands. There can be that many bits in the air, there is just so much more to a WiFi packet than an Ethernet packet, plus encryption, plus interference, plus time share. They don't just double the number.
@@eduitguy9016 calm down.
@@superawesomeguyneal Technically that should be /r/choosybeggars, as in, beggars can't be choosers. :-p
I have the nanohD since about a month, my first Unifi AP ever, very pleased with his performance, finally coverage overall in my house!
Bought it especially since it was about 30% smaller than the AC PRO, looks great.
May I ask, how many square footage and one or two stories?
@@allent555 overall 220m² (square meters), with the groundfloor (rough guess) 5meters width and 20m depth, the nanohd is place in the front of the house. Attached to a concrete ceiling. I have 3 levels in house (ground, first, second floor), between ground an first level: concrete, between first and second, a wooden ceiling, but with 15cm of insulation. I have good coverage on the second floor.
Thanks
Koen Van Everbroeck are you using a Ubiquiti router as well?
Biggest difference from the UAP-AC-Pro and the UAP-NanoHD is MU-MIMO. I found in a crouded 2.4GHz environment (Apartment building in a dense city) the AUP-AC-Pro can only get about 11 or 12Mb/second of download, while the MU-MIMO Consumer Router I was testing was able to easily do 100Mb in the same distance and power levels.
I hope you can attempt to recreate this test in your more comprehensive test. It would be great to see 4+ clients at a time all hammering the AP at some range and see how the nanoHD handles the situation differently compared to the UAP-AC-Pro.
Waiting for this review to buy it..... Tnx Chris. Now waiting again for the review of the CloudKey Gen2 Plus....
Don't wait on the Gen 2 Plus review...just get it. It is nice! I have one. I bought when it was on the Beta Store. I love the display and battery backup. I just ordered the rack mount adapter should be here this week.
@@bpaullus You don't know or forget that it is not available in Belgium yet, maybe in december... And I want the 19" mounting bracket too, that shall be available next year.
@@ron_belgium ah, yes...sorry did not know you were not in the States. Well, the wait will be worth it.
@@bpaullus no problem, but "Gent" is a big city here, born there ;-)
@Crosstalk Solutions Would love to see some real life speed test using these guys. Thanks for all the great videos!
Jon, I have all three models in my environment... The Nano HD wins hands down for maximum throughput and range (on 5GHz) AC HD wins range on 2.4GHz...
Gigabit fiber to the prem... For the NanoHD I see ~600Mbps average on speed tests...
Just ran iPerf on all three... (MacBook Pro 3x3 MIMO / 8-12 Clients per AP)

Gigabit wired LAN is FULL DUPLEX .. 1 Gigabit each way, wireless is always Half-Duplex. (one way RX or TX) so if you do both at once, its still slower then the 1 gig full duplex wired. Kinda late, but hope it helps to understand wired vs wireless.( in most cases)
I was having a problem with a school that had Meraki MR32 APs. I replaced one with the nanoHD and the improvement was amazing.
The benefits of the nanoHD is they have changed SoCs and are getting more throughput for lower amounts of users. Most tests shows a single machine doing iperf tests with each AP as faster by a decent amount with the nano compared to the pro. We are not talking about moving beyond a max but rather being able to more reliably use that available bandwidth.
literally bought a Pro and it delivered yesterday -_-
Good to know it doesn't change *too* much, and the Pro is still fine!
A few points, 1733 is acheveble with 80Mhz a channel and a 4x4 client.
Also 1733 is the max wifi link rate, so it's adding both directions thus lag is not needed, ubiquiti has a post about this.
So lacp is only really needed for 160Mhz channel use, that said I do have a UAP-ac-hd and UAP-ac-SHD both with lacp links to my us-8-150w.
I just bought the nanoHD for my home last month. Chose this over the AC Pro just because the form factor was smaller and it would be less noticeable on the ceiling. Performance has been great. Getting around 100-300 mbps depending on interference. Range is amazing as well; only needed one to cover both floors of my 2000 sq ft townhouse.
Thanks for the excellent feedback!
I found a perfect use case for these. We have a small conference space that is somewhat open to the public. It can see upwards of 100-200 people but is a bit more spread out then all in one room. The HDs would have been overkill, for the space but going with the nanoHDs allows us to have better 5ghz coverage in all areas while still being able to handle a large number of people spread out.
Put my Nano in an office, normally doesn't have many users, but needed to replace a lite that died. It works. it is effective. Never have any issues with it.
Custom IT Solutions did they have the same mounting bracket? Thinking about the same thing...
@@lucasgasenzer The AC Lite and the nanoHD use the same mounting bracket. I upgraded my AC Lite unit and I just had to twist it off and twist on the new nanoHD.
@@lucasgasenzer They did have the same bracket. there is almost zero comparison between the two... but pretty sure I had a junk ac lite and now that I have one that doesnt overheat and stop working for days on end... anything is better!
thank you for explaining the line up
1733 mbps WiFi link speed ≠ Real speed - as a result of WiFi being half-duplex.
So the wired 1gbps connection will not be maxed out.
Good point, so full duplex would be ~866.5 mbps going both ways.. but somehow I doubt most mobile devices operate at full speed like that.
Finally....waiting for review months. Nice review cheers!
I advocate only ever buying the AC Lite (make sure to get the newer ones with Gig connection and proper POE). I bought one LR and realized, what good is it that it can reach farther if the phone/end points can't reach back that far. Go for the cheaper "Lite" and put more of them in. I did buy one HD for our Council Chambers room. I don't really understand why another model when they already have too many imho. I am not slandering Ubiquiti, I absolutely LOVE the AP Lite and now have them scattered all over my work campus buildings and am using a Linux based server for the Unifi controller (all works wonderful). As for a home user, I have an AC Lite also and put in the middle of my house covers everything. Unless you throw HUGE parties where you have a bunch of people over cruising internet, I can't see buying anything other than the Lite for home. What I would really like to see are some better outdoor models. Don't get me wrong, I have nothing but love for you Ubiquiti.
Chadd Austin Its both a better transmitter AND more sensitive receiver
would be nice if they had a bracket that once could use an electrical box to run the cat cable into. Like an octagon box
Drill your own holes into it then
It would be nice if they released an updated version of this with Wifi 6. Not that it's needed really.
Yeah hardly needed until the 6GHz band is live
@@millsathn they are available on the Early Access site, $99 when in stock I think.
I've had the NanoHD for a couple of months. The firmware is a work in progress. I use it for home use and still have to run beta versions to get things to work right. Hoping they have it dialed in by 2019
I've got some of the AC-Pro's and i'm not over impressed with their outdoor suitability. With external grade Cat6 cable and the rubber plug in the back of the AP to weatherproof it it's a pain to get seated properly on it's backing plate.
I've also just got a Nano and that's going in a 65 seater cinema with a black skin on it.
I use the HD on floor 2 and Nano on floor one, in a normal house. Yes I know, but I love overkill ;-)
Do you have the Nano on the first floor ceiling mounted? How did you fish the ethernet cable between floors?
Not worried about crossover interference?
@@camy252camy3 not at all. Different channels on both.
@@DeeL2003 No fishing, a hole in the wall, and cables going visible over the walls, wife not agree, wife can go, Unifi stays, better investment anyway 🤣🤣
Time to upgrade Alien mesh WiFi 6
As for where i would use the nanoHD, my own workplace, which is a school, happens to be a perfect fit. The thing about this school is that the walls are thick solid concrete, even between classrooms. This means that signals will propagate poorly through walls.
This, however, means that it's a perfect fit for a "One AP per room"-policy. We require good signal in every room, which are relatively small classrooms, and support for at least 60 devices per room (around 30 pupils, each having a smartphone and a computer/Chromebook is the worst case scenario), and since the range/penetration advantages of 2.4G is gonna be poor at any rate because of the walls, focusing on superb 5G performance makes more sense. And that's a niche the nanoHD fits nicely at a cheaper price than the HD. Of course it requires proper signal tuning, and you might need to turn off the 2.4G radios on some AP's to minimize interference.
For larger congregation areas with wider space, I'd probably go with the HD.
There is another point you forgot to mention in the pro VS nanohd comparison, the nano supports VHT160 while the pro is VHT80(even the HD and the SHD cannot use vht160 while supporting it in the chipset due to missing certification)
For a home environment, I think the nano's smaller size is just more aesthetically appropriate. Plus, of course, the skins can help fit them into varying decor.
Agreed!
There is a large misunderstanding here, the nanoHD and the HD are MU-MIMO (AC wave 2) when the AC-Pro is MIMO only (AC wave 1)
The effects can be visible especially now with the raise of gigabit internet almost everywhere
In the AC Pro, if you have a laptop, or even a little iPad/tablet doing a large download, you’ll see in fact this equipment, even been a 2*2 using ALL the bandwidth of the AC Pro and starving the others equipments, you can see that especially if you have a smart TV or a Netflix box running a 4K stream and you start an iPad upgrade for example,
When on the nanoHD and the Hd, as this is MU-MIMO, the iPad as a 2*2, will use half of the wireless ressource, and the Access point can still provide for example a 2*2 to the Netflix box with dedicated bandwidth, or 2 times 1*1 allowing to get then 3 equipments sharing the bandwidth without effect with each other
so, basically, there is a generation difference between those AP which can be important even in a single and simple home environment
I got a lot of customers,so happy with the nano now in replacement of the AC Pro as this is night and day with you have multiple users using bandwidth and latency sensitive applications
For reference, the AC product line dl.ubnt.com/datasheets/unifi/UniFi_AC_APs_DS.pdf
And HD product line dl.ubnt.com/datasheets/unifi/UniFi_nanoHD_AP_DS.pdf
Please read carefully the difference of MU-MIMO and MIMO are they offer widely different perspective for networks scalability and usable
‘Raise of gigabit internet almost everywhere” lol, very few consumers have access to gigabit internet.
Used the Nano HD in some offices. The small size and MU Mimo make me think it'll be a bit more future proofed.
Just installed 2 UAP-AC-Pro's in my house.... seems this is an incremental improvement and not compelling...
Also, since the Pro baseplate is larger than the nano, wouldn't it show from below with adapter?
question can I connect 3 NanoHD Access point to the POE Switch USW-Lite-16-PoE
2023 here.
Still a great AP
The wallmount for the AC-Lite is the same as the one for the NanoHD (I have both of them in front of me).
Thanks for that, planning on replacing a lite with this. It'll make installation easier
I’m going to get the nanoHD based on MU-MIMO. It’s a negligible price difference to future proof you enough to ignore that 802.11ax will be out in 1-2 years. I hate buying something knowing that an entirely new set of models will be coming out soon.
You are forgetting that wifi is not full-duplex, ethernet is. So the maximum speed of gigabit ethernet at least for both directions is actually 2 gigabit. So in this regard of traffic 2 gigabit is plenty for handling 1.7 gigabit of mixed traffic. There is also the factor like you said of other wireless users as well as the separate 2.4GHz band that is another 300 mbps. Regardless we are hitting a point where gigabit ethernet wont be good enough shortly.
my understanding was that a 1 gb link would be seen as a 2gb link in terms of WIFI. Because there is 1 GB up and 1 GB down. Where the WIFI has 1733 Mbit regardless of the direction. The big boy is mine. and I love it. :)
Can you compete these with the In wall HD?
This video was great. But I need to decide which one to use on solid concrete.
Solid concrete....any of them will be fine. look at the other criteria such as user density for the decision. I've got a 3 different AP models and many are on solid reinforced concrete without issue.
In home setting, I think I'd choose the Pro because of 3x3 mimo on 2.4GHz. vs 2x2 mimo on nanoHD. But, if there is line of sight, I'd go with nanoHD (i.e. office setting).
Nano has 4x4 mu mimo
@@msahny1625 I’m comparing on 2.4Ghz radio. Pro is 3x3 and nano is 2x2. 2.4Ghz is what will be used if there are walls and such in the way. 5Ghz degrades faster through walls.
Almost bought this, but then I noticed it's not WiFi 6 (no ax). So I'll either have to settle for the larger/older AC Pro, or wait :-(
Dual gigabit not really a concern given that the 1.733 gbps is theoretical and most likely never going to happen in actual deployments. If you restrict the wireless side to gigabit matching the single wire, and assume an average 7-10mbps per client, you can handle 100+ clients per AP....again in theory and not taking into account airtime utilization, noise, etc.
what is the difference in range and penetration on the pro and the nano for a client who lives in a high-rise big 1 floor apartment with many concrete and steel columns, and marble/ sone lined walls
hi sir i hve one question can i use 5ghzprism gen 2 ac with 5 ghz 13dbi with omni
Hi, I have heard the NanoHD has a range issue and the wireless signal is shorter that the UAP AC Pro, can this be confirmed? Is it a a firmware or hardware issue? Would love to hear anyones thoughts! Keep up the great work Chris!
I don't think this video has any value apart from reading product brochures for you. What is the performance really like, measured by you and not taken from spec sheet?
Hello Chris, I am planning to upgrade my current Apple Extreme. The main reason for upgrading is that I resently purchased 2 Yamaha wifi speakers, and they work well for 20 to 30 minutes. After that, the sound get noise or interruptions. I concludedafter some test that the problem is caused by the wifi router. I am looking into the Nano HD. Can you give me some comments as to if this upgrade may or may not solve my sound issue?
Chris, i am currently about to deploy 6 in a large home. I went for the NanoHD over the AC pro due to the nanoHD being a wave2 device. So in my mind it will be supported longer by ubnt.
Especially since i am replacing 6 EOL UAP-AC v2...
Fausto B. Cruz the nano also uses a newer chipset which looks like it helps give better performance in the reviews I’ve seen. But I don’t know how they perform when loaded by lots of clients...
Hi Chris,
Any news on the new HD In Wall AP?
Thanks
The AP-AC-HD does support link aggregation.
Cool, have you noticed a perfomance difference depending on how its mounted ,eg wall or ceiling mount?
Hi Chris ... Nice review but I want to add a point regarding the differences between the HD models and the AC Pro and this point is supporting IEEE 802.11w (Management Frame Protection) that only supports in 3rd Gen APs which are the HD Models so this feature is not supported in AC Pro which is under Gen2 Models
Thanks for this info. I looked at the settings, and found it hidden at: settings, wireless networks, edit (button on top right). You'll see: PMF(protected management frames)=Disabled(by default). You can select it as Optional (APs will use PMF for all capable stations, while allowing non-PMF capable stations to join the WLAN) or Required (APs will use PMF for all stations. Stations without PMF capability will not be able to join the WLAN). As per your comment, this requires Gen3 APs only. Cheers!
What about the range of each other?
What is the best option to go to when you're trying to set up a wi-fi connection throughout at an apartment complex? Where there is buildings and trees are in between and there is no real line of site? Thanks in advance
Will the pro model can reach 600 Mbps speed on wireless for home use?
Since ISP provides 600 Mbps, I was thinking to change Tp-Link Archer C1900 to the pro, but kind of debating for the pro or nano.
Although Tp-Link Archer C1900 providing 1300Mbps on 5GHz not sure why only getting 200 Mbps!
Hi Chris,
Great videos. Thanks to you i am now a unifi user in The Netherlands, Europe. Just installing my system now. Just in the test-phase now, so don’t want to jump to conclusions, but the WiFi coverage is a bit disappointing compared to my current Apple airport pro setup. I am a home user, it was wondering if you know of any good resources on AP placement or intend to do a video on this. Wall, wiling, height placement etc. Thanks and again great videos. Take care William
I am a total newbie trying to set up my home network with Ubiquiti products. Can anyone tell me if I can take advantage of the 4x4 MU MIMO of nanoHD or the 3x3 MIMO of PRO in a home environment? What if I get a 160 MHz wifi adapter for my desktop? Thanks.
It is a bit confusing. Can I use a Netgear POE plus managed switch to power the nano HD?
Great video. With UAP-AC-PRO, I’m still only getting around 400mbps on my iPhone X even though I have the AT&T gigabit (940mbps) internet. All my wired connections are getting close to 940mbps. Any ideas?
Just wonder which type of AP that have bigger area coverage, UAP-AC-PRO or UAP-NanoHD? In unifi controller - map they don't have NanoHD in virtual devices so I can't do the compare...
At one point you connect to your controller and it's on Digital ocean? I am on AWS. Digital ocean is cheaper and data isn't metered. Have you had good experiences with DO? Think I should switch? Or sign up for the several year commitment with AWS?
Going to use them in my new house 😄 new house got wifi killer walls 🤨
I’m thinking of 2 maybe 3 APs in my house. 1 on each floor and one in a room separate from the main building. With 3 APs would I benefit from nano HD or should I just with the lite? I have 4K TVs but these are wired. I don’t think I will get benefits of MU MIMO. Is that correct?
Having problems with nano APs dropping from dream machine with switch flex mini can you help?
Could you do a security related video on the discoverability of ubiquiti devices. I heard the other week a vulnerability existed that by default they were discoverable on the World Wide Web.
Will the NanoHD skins fit onto the AC-Lite?
Question:
I have two NSM5’s that i linked together via one of ur videos. The sending NSM5 is set to 192.168.1.10 and the receiving one at 192.168.1.11. The Receiving one is ran into a Netgear AP which supplies wifi to my apartment. I am having trouble accessing either one of my nanostations through the wifi connection of my Netgear AP. I am not sure what I’m leaving out. Thank you in advance and love the videos.
Whats the average throughput you can get of the AC PRO/HD/Nano for a single user? my top transfer rates are around 12mb/s , which would be around 100 mbps.
I just bought one of these and put it on the 2nd floor ceiling, in the center of my house. It is sitting above a walkway in a very open space. Cathedral ceilings on both sides. My coverage is terrible with this AP. For example, at about 10' away on 5G, I can get 300Mbps down. If I move straight back another 5', it'll drop to 170Mbps. I'll still have a clear line of sight too but yet the speeds drop significantly. 2.4 is also abysmal. For whatever reason, I have better 5G coverage than I do 2.4.
I have an Asus GT-AC5300 that is in my office, which is located on the left side of the house, and I can pretty much get excellent coverage/speed with it throughout and in the basement. Because of hard it would be add another ethernet drop, I'd like a "One AP" solution. If I got a AC-Pro, do you think i'd be in a better boat?
The second port isn’t aggregatable last I checked....
That second port is more so for a LAN pass through than anything else
How does the Nano HD compare to the AC Lite size wise? Are they the same? Do they use the same mount?
Thanks for the great video!
The AC-PRO can't be aggregated while the AC-HD can be.
Jamie Ficken why not? I like to know as I am considering which to buy. One will think with the 2 Ethernet ports, it can be aggregated
Chris is that the ios or Android app? My Android Unifi app looks nothing like that. App version I have is 1.7.4 and is much more intuitive. Maybe it's because I have the beta version (on the Android Play Store you can go to the app page and scroll down towards the bottom and select beta tester)
Does the new NanoHD LED still burns out after couple of months?
enjoy the videos as always.
GREAT... brake down. Thank you !!!
Can I use it with an arris wireless router?
Is the Nano HD compatible with the mount from the AC Lite? Are they just about the same overall size?
You said on wall? Is that correct vs ceiling?
Camouflage skin but the device is not rated for outdoors. 🤔
Installed the nano in my basement (2,300 sqft) primarily to support the home theater and game room. The coverage is amazing, and it also penetrates into the floor above at impressive throughput.
thanks for some very awesome videos!!!... I wanted to know how well it handles broadcast traffic? I have over 25 Smart Lifx lights throughout my house, and a few Smart plugs which unfortunately only use the 2.4G and I know that can cause a lot of broadcast traffic. I wanted to know how well would the:
NanoHD or Unifi AP HD do with this situation? I also wanted to know, how well it does with seamless roaming? plan on having 2 or 3 around the home. (Multi-level very large house). I am new to Ubiquiti, coming from Netgear. I have an okay understanding of networks and before now i mostly tried to wired anything i could. but most of the smart home product dont have wired options.
thanks for any tips
Should handle broadcast traffic OK as long as you haven't blocked it in the UniFi Wireless settings --> Advanced section.
Seamless roaming is something that has never worked that well IMO. A better option is simply well placed AP's that don't interfere with each other or other 2.4GHz or 5GHz radio signals.
@@CrosstalkSolutions thank you! so with the seamless roaming not being so well. would you say to just name all the AP's the same name?
Is it possible that they have range differens?
Hi Chris,
I always enjoy your videos, and offer a suggestion for a future one, if you can find the time;
I have a few sites with gen 1 cloud key, or raspberry Pi running Unifi Controller on each one. These are behind Meraki firewalls but with Unifi switches and AP's on the network. I have been frustrated with CK1's going off-line and the difficulty of getting them restarted when they are 100's of km distant. With the release of the GEN2 Cloudkey, I would like to roll all the separate sites into a single GEN2 Cloudkey in my office. I believe this can be done (each site has a solid fiber connection). but am unsure how to achieve the consolidation, and what the downside, (if any) may be.
Cheers,
If you are doing multiple sites, you should probably do a hosted controller rather than any onsite CloudKey.
Agreed 100% @@CrosstalkSolutions
How do these perform when not mounted from a ceiling? Such us just laying them on a desk where it's facing up?
Same question I have.
@@speedlever yeah seems like unifi is also selling to people installing them in their homes, would be nice if they made a table top product that can be plugged into an existing Ethernet drop. I realize they have the inwall products, but even those require you to cut in a new low voltage single gang if you existing wall plate has more than one port, such as coax, HDMI or rj11.
You would be surprised at how many people deploy their APs that way. The ones that I have seen perform well when just laying on a shelf or desktop.
What about multi-user gaming. Would mu-mimo be better?
Probably would not make a difference.
Hello Chris, me (and i found out a lot of other people) experience very slow connections with this nanoHD from unifi. Do you have this experiance as well, and do you know a solution to it? In low, i mean really low: 20Mbit. On 2.4 as well on 5g. My old Dlink that was replaced by it made over 600... :(
Thanks.
Hello, thank you for the video is very helpfully. I have a question for you. I bought 2 NanoHD and I have a store than I have a lot of customers using wifi connection every day, when you mentioned 200+ users, its mean the capacity is only for 200 user at same time? A soon a customer is disconnected from the wifi another user can take the IP ? Thank you.
That limit is nothing to do with IP addressing, your router should be handling that and you can set it up with different address classes that will give you plenty of addresses, that said, how many people do you get in your store at once? I think you'll run into other problems before you reach 400 concurrent users unless you have very high end equipment and multiple high speed internet connections.
Nano is probably not suitable for smart home if 2.4ghz band is neglected. Pretty much all IoT devices use 2.4Ghz. Might be pretty cluttered...
Can you use these devices as a business to connect clients and charge them? just curious. and if so, what equipment will I need?
The controller can generate a guest portal. I'm pretty sure there are docs at UBNT and videos here that will show you how. It's not for the faint hearted though!
I agree with Nick on this. The UBNT captive portal functionality works...but it's definitely got its quirks. It is not something that I recommend to my customers.
The pro has 3x3 2.4ghz. I think it is better In a home environment where you have a lot of iot devices that almost always work on 2.4. Y have 57 iot clients on 2.4 spread across 2 aps and still have 5ghz free con computers and phones
Wall or ceiling. Or don't core?
Hi ,can i connect unifi ac ap pro wirelessly to my router? My router hasnt have a bridge mode!it has normal router! I mean i dont want use wire for connect unifi to my router !
no
Hi Chris, not sure if this was already brought up, but I know there is some discussion on the Ubiquiti forums regarding future firmware and/or software updates for their wireless hardware to support WPA3. Ubiquiti seems to be pretty mute on the topic, but some have speculated that the processing power of the older gen APs not being capable of handling the enhanced security protocol. Do you have any thoughts on this?
No, I haven't heard anything about it. I have UniFi Controllers on the latest software - some with older AP's, and (besides issues where the AP is no longer supported), I haven't seen any problems.
Can you put these in mesh?
Does it support Airtime Fairness?
Will we finally see an ax (WiFi 6) pro this year ? As much as I would love to buy the dream machine and add a couple of nano size mesh stations I really want future compatibility support added , it would be great if ubiquity added a dc in even if it’s via usb 3c so it’s easier to install than those Poe injectors for smaller businesses and home where it’s not easy to have a wired connection due to rental rules ax band in a mesh device base should allow just that and be the go to ubiquity device
I don't think you need to wire the AP to the router, you can use the injector like the DC in and mesh back to the next AP if you want and a good thing about Dream Machine is you can add WiFi 6 and 6E APs as they become available.
@@futurecactus the top end models only allow ++ so the normal injectors won’t work as the need double the voltage, but what I meant was instead of using an injector e.g. an ac/dc plug preferably usb c gen 2 (with pass through so a separate plug isn’t needed if say you were upgrading the firmware offline say for a client before going to site). as the injectors are quite bulky and far from ideal say in an open area e.g canteen/library etc connected by 3rd party switches were the budget may not reach to a full upgrade to 10gb or if they have gone down a different route for there core switches
Do you like the NanoHD or the AP Pro better for home use (indoor, 1 device per floor)?
I still vote for the PRO , rather have 2 pros than one beast.
You forgot deauth attacks and PMF feature in 3rd gen devices
Just wondering if the nanoHD can be powered up by the Unifi 60w 8 port switch?
I saw you showing this big POE power supply that came in the box with the nanoHD so just wondering if that was something with more power or can the switch power it up on its own. Thanks. Great Video.
Should be fine powered by that
I kind of wish they would have just made the nano with the same shell as the pro so a wall plate adapter wouldn't be needed.
It's a lot smaller...that wouldn't work.
