CODY I NEEDED THIS! I legit just got a new Ubiqiti setup a few months ago and added new switches, AP’s, a NVR etc. I reset my entire network a few days ago and I’m starting from scratch. Your timing is impeccable!
What perfect timing! I was just watching your 2023 video as I'm going to re-do and start from scratch my UDM-Pro this afternoon. I guess I'll delay a bit after I digest this video. Thank you!
Thank you Cody for the 2024 yearly complete setup. Unifi changes their UI so much every year that it really does help each and everyone of us to start from scratch without forgetting anything. I really was looking forward to this video as I am after moving house and had to reset all my network devices. Your videos helped me set my network before and I'm very thankful! Keep doing what you do best, a great job!
Probably the best Unifi instructional videos out there. I know most of this of it but great to fill in a few gaps and refresh the brain cell! VPN wifiman for desktop! Didn't even know that existed 🤦🏻♂️🤣
Thank you Cody for making and remaking this video every year. Unifi changes their UI so much that it really is needed so we can go back and refer to something when needed. Your videos helped me set my network a year ago and I'm very thankful!
One question about IDS/IPS: is this also limiting the speed for LAN-internal traffic (PC to NAS for example) to the limit of the router used (3.5 Gbps for UDM SE for example)? Is all this traffic then routed "over" the UDM for IDS/IDS inspection? Or is this feature for external WAN connections only? Greetings from germany :)
How happy I was you have done a fantastic and easy to understand installation, very many and good tips for my part. Keep up your movies I love them +++++
Thanks Cody good video. I am trying to find some more information on why you would allow Default to talk to all LANs and Devices. Are there specific reasons or white papers you can help point me at to address why this is needed. I have been running without this for some time and just want to expand my knowledge incase I have been doing something incorrect.
Thank you for this! How do the Traffic & Firewall rules you created differ from the rules created with you check the "Isolate Network" box on the network config?
Very nice video as always! I did my setup not to long ago. But I am struggling with airplay/cast function to my LG smart TV. I like it to be on a other vlan then default with airplay and casting working. Any ideas?
Amazing tutorial. Good Job! but I am still with old square USG due to less budget that satisfies home security needs. Anyway i got the knowledge. Thanks Cody...
Cody, do you know if you will be able to disable shadow mode in the case that you need to run two different networks connected from your UDM PRO LAN port to a second UDM PRO Wan port?
Great video, don’t know if I missed it or misunderstood, but with the separate VLANS for IOT and secure, how do I control my IOT devices with my iPhone that would be connected to the secure network?
Have you considering doing a video showing a potential migration from the UDR to a UDM (pick your flavor)? I know besides myself that others would be interesting in it.
Note: I'm using a Cisco switch, not a Ubiquiti switch. When I create an SSID and assign it to a VLAN I manually created (VLAN 100 in this case), users cannot connect to the Wi-Fi. Should I choose the default VLAN and then reserve IPs from the VLAN 100 range for the SSID? help please
Thank you for this video. What is your reason for having a different WiFi subnet? I get why you want to have separate subnets for your IoT, Guest, and Camera devices, but why split your main subnet into two parts?
Hope you can do a video on the Tesla Wall Connector for some reason,. We Tesla owners can't connect the wall connector to Unifi Wifi. Tesla custumer support are not that informed in networking so we have to rely on our knowhow to find the sultion. Been following you for a while, so maybe you can get down to the cause and see if we can set something up on our settings, other than their recommendation of just having the 2.4Ghz radio on and only using WPA2. Thanks
Have they fixed the issue with the UDM Pro that causes it to brick after power loss until you remove it from power for 24 hours? As of a couple of months ago they hadn't. I had to switch to a UXG-Max and a UCK2.
I've been carefully following this and I see a few differences on what I'm seeing only to find out that I'm still on Network 8.0.28 -- I have the original UDM PRO -- I've been hitting update button and I'm not getting any new updates. I'm on the official release. how did you update yours to 8.2.93? Should I switch to release candidate? I have factory reset all my devices today too.
Thanks a lot, Cody, for this video! I guess all of us really appreciate your work!! ...but, may I ask you a question please? The identity VPN feature... I would like to do the same as you in your video to allow the vpn users only access to my nas (it has the function as an exchange drive for teachers). So if I do exactly the same as you in your video, is it the same as split tunneling? So the users have access over vpn to my nas from their homes/their common school, but all their home/school traffic (normal browsing, streaming, etc.) doesn't run over our private internet connection... Am I wrong or does all their traffic run over my private internet connection? And if thats the case, how can I only allow split tunneling? I hope you can help or want to help me!! I've tried it with wireguard, but it doesn't work as expected (I'm sure it is a layer 8 problem ;) ) and also with openvpn. It was working, but the connection speed could be much better. Thanks a lot in advance, Cody!!
What about when using a UNVR for the cameras? You only need to install Protect on the UNVR and then Adopt them via the UNVR in that case, right? I'd read elsewhere to: use both ports on the back of the UNVR. Connect the SFP port on the UNVR to the SFP port on the switch and put the SFP port (on the switch) in the 'Cameras' VLAN. Then connect the RJ-45 port on the back of the UNVR to the switch also and put the RJ-45 port connected to the RJ-45 on the UNVR on your Default network LAN (and that this will improve throughput and reduce buffering). Do you agree with this setup?
Will you be going over any IPV6 configurations in the future with Unfi, love your videos as I have used them for reference to help setup my home network and firewall rules. Thanks!
I have an appartment with 14 units built in 1969. I would rather not wire the entie building and use WiFi instead. How can I use Unifi to setup multiple SSD connected to a UDM Pro SE or better with fiber internet?
Hey Cody, I think you made a bit of a mistake around the 27 minute mark. You made a port group called Secure IoT and made that the IP of the Secure network gateway. Then after making some block rules, you talked about how you could block the Secure network from being able to get to the UDMP login page, and you used the Secure IoT port group to do that, but this was all about blocking the Secure network from the login page, and had nothing to do with the IoT network, right? Cause your PC had a .40.x address and this was about blocking just to its own gateway login page.
Yeah - I found this entire section confusing. Even the fact that he started by saying that it's not best practice to allow the IoT network access to the UDM, but then switched to stop the Secure network from accessing the UDM. Why would you block your trusted PCs from being able to get to the UDM? How would you then administer the UDM if you don't have it connected to the Unifi Cloud?
Thank you so much for this. Very easy to understand and as a new comer to Ubiquity ecosystem, soon I'll install my home network follow all your steps. Have some questions and wonder what is the best way to contact you for a resolution
Thank you so much for making these complete setup videos! This technically counts as a community service.
CODY I NEEDED THIS! I legit just got a new Ubiqiti setup a few months ago and added new switches, AP’s, a NVR etc. I reset my entire network a few days ago and I’m starting from scratch. Your timing is impeccable!
Literally set mine up a few weeks ago and wished he had a newer guide out... 🤣

Just replaced my pfSense router with UDMP SE, this video was fantastic! Thank you Cody!
Thank you so much! I was playing with these firewall settings last week and missed the top down rule set. Thanks for making another great video!
Let’s goooo! Was waiting for this one! ❤
Thank you for this video will do this weekend and add this as favorite! Keep on going hope reach 100k SOON!
Probably the best Unifi instructional videos out there. I know most of this of it but great to fill in a few gaps and refresh the brain cell!
VPN wifiman for desktop! Didn't even know that existed 🤦🏻♂️🤣
Amazing how many creators just happen to put out a Unifi Network Complete guide at the same time... ;) . Love your videos!
Who else?
@ThinkGreek88 SpaceRex on the same day. How funny! This one has more details on firewall etc which is nice. The other is more beginner I would say.
@marc3793 I'm new in the whole network thing..
Trying to set up my new house.
Thanks for the hint I will check the vid out too..
Thanks for this videos, recently switch to Unifi and loved the guides to know the best practices and new options. Keep it up
Well that was fast! Watching it now as I just got my WAP yesterday so I can finally use my UDM SE.
Thank you Cody for making and remaking this video every year. Unifi changes their UI so much that it really is needed so we can go back and refer to something when needed. Your videos helped me set my network a year ago and I'm very thankful!
These videos are always super helpful! Thank you!
As I’ve always said, I love your content! Keep up the great work!
Thank you for another build video!
Good timing
My Cloud Gateway Ultra will arrive today.
Just launched yesterday here in japan.
Keep up the good work
Every year I am saving this video to use as reference and have it at hand, thanks a lot for updating this yearly.
Nice! Thanks for the update!
Thanks for all the hardwork on this Cody
Hey Cody, thanks for you great video.
I've just updated my setup with your video last year, but still thank you lol
Great video Cody!
thank you very much. Even with experience, this is a very good refresh to check if something can (has to) be improved.
Thanks for watching :)
Thanks Cody, have to have a look later!
Appreciate the work you put into this and thank you for sharing 🤝
Appreciate these bud!

Really appreciate your dedication to do this each year, straightforward and clear explanation

Great video, but a little fast. How about a video discussing Guest Networks printing to a different VLAN using AirPrint.
Thanks a lot, Cody, for this video! I guess all of us really appreciate your work!!

Just the right time before my UDM Pro arrive.
Have fun building it out :)
Very interesting video.

Most likely not as I don’t use it but you never know what the future holds :)
I'd love a video on how to gently progress from a 1GB network to 2.5 or even 10GB network.
hello, where do you get the icons to use with draw io ? thanks
Can you do a video on setting up a mail server/ access on the udm?
If I put long range wifi 7 with existing dream box will WiFi 7 work ? Thanks
Love the IoT network name of Deloris - I hope West World can make a movie or one more season to wrap everything up
I have an appartment with 14 units built in 1969. I would rather not wire the entie building and use WiFi instead. How can I use Unifi to setup multiple SSD connected to a UDM Pro SE or better with fiber internet?
I'm having trouble creating a VLAN. I can send you the configuration details if that would help. How can you assist me with this? Please
🥳👍

Yes lord
Where the access ultra review at? You promised to do that, waiting on your review to buy or not to buy. Please...
I’m starting recording it today
Can you just have a unvr-pro and a poe switch with cameras without a controller?
You can. The Unifi protect application runs on the unvr pro
@@MactelecomNetworks Thanks, so even the functionality that you can use the phone app outside of the network would work?
And just in time for Unifi OS 4.0.6. Oh well.
Yup always happens lol. All good though I’ll just do update videos
If only they would make it so the Cloud Gateway Ultra did Unifi Talk. I could sell so many of those it ain't even funny.
Until Ubiquiti's DPI actually supports/works with IPv6, I can not recommend their products.
Bro why you always skip when connecting unifi controller and Internet router and how it goes?
First we need to see how u r connecting the topology plz
Like physical connections? I could do a video on how to physically set things up
Kitty Video Bomb!!!
Why do you have so many access points so close to each other?
I have three levels to my home one AP on each
@@MactelecomNetworks I think I was seeing Ethernet drops, I thought those were in-wall access points.
I believe in magic.
Thank you so much for this. Very easy to understand and as a new comer to Ubiquity ecosystem, soon I'll install my home network follow all your steps.
Have some questions and wonder what is the best way to contact you for a resolution
