      Nice but ..
      Does it have a battery for the controller?, since the key 2nd gen has it and that also include the camera server ...
      How many cameras support , each camera take a little bit of processing juice, will that affect DPI and IDS?
      I use UniFi a lot and I love their products, but I think this is for home or small Company not medium, I personally use their NVR solution, more robust and reliable and the software has more and better features.

I had to boot into rescue mode or whatever it's called and do a recovery. It's worked very well after that.

    By the way Jeremy, I was working a lot with Dream Machine PRO. I have deployed this router in different small businesses are awesome and solid. The issue that you may have with the 1gbs is that the version you have only work in the SFP+ port. If you have your lan connected to the Wan ethernet port it will only read that + your network is 1gbs so it will read that. The new version of dream machine pro is insane. Includes now POE and 2.5GBs ethernet ports.

    This is a great device, but they are lacking 2 very important feature, at least imo, being able to use more than one IP adress on the Wan and not being able to setup a VPN client other than ipsec. I mean these are things that are basically standard in today's world and the fact that it is limited to one IP has caused multiple ppl I know to go with different hardware that is not as good with most of the other stuff.

I don't like firewalla's 30 warranty as that seems a bit off they don't stand behind their product more than that but I have seen nothing but great reviews. Next, are either WiFi and of not can I use a newer asus router to be the access point? Thanks

    I thought about using this and love Unifi stuff but I am not a fan of the proprietary camera system. I switched away from their Gateway devices and moved to pfsense. Would love to see you do a video on pfsense. I think you would like the functionality of it.

    This is, obviously, a late reply but I just ordered my UDM Pro. The ONE thing I feel it's missing is having 4 of those ports being POE+. I know the upcoming version will have that, but it should have been on the original too. I ended up buying POE Injectors because their standalone POE+ switches are way too expensive (for me to justify).

    This product actually under delivers a lot.
    This a great UA-cam video that keeps you entertained. But that’s where it ends.....
    I purchased a udm-pro based on this video. And I found out quickly that some of the reasons I purchased for that are described here do not functional very well at all.
    Currently vlans do not work as described. Or at least their how intended.
    Id like to ask chuck to go back to this unit a do a real and thorough TEST of the some of the features.
    If you scour through the unifi community forums you will find others with similar experiences with lack of functionality.
    This video was made a year ago, and I feel that’s plenty of time for unifi to get their act together with any firmware updates or software changes necessary so it actually does what it’s supposed to.
    Love your videos chuck. Like I said, they are entertaining...

    Hi Chuck. Love your videos but have a doubt on the Dream Machine Pro. I’m using NordVPN on my Asus router but as far as I know the Dream Machine Pro was at the beta to support this kind of connection. My main concern is if I may use NordVPN with it.

    thinking about picking up a pro eventually, just getting started on setting up my new network in my home office.
    Just got my pfsense box stood up, realizing there may be some issues with realtek NIC's and pfsense but I haven't experienced any issues yet...
    Guess I might have to stress test it.

    It's actually kind of sad that there's no reason to nerd out hard on this thing. Everything is so easy and fast to set up. Upgraded our small company's network from a Forti router to UDM Pro within 2 hours from unpacking to running.

    Probably find the throughput for the threat detection system is based on you wan speed. (So you have a 1gbps net conn it will match it, if you had higher it would be higher)

    I really wish there was a dream machine "super" pro with PoE+ and extra SFP+ ports...
    An integration with the 16-XG and Switch 8 150W basically.
    Basically giving you an all in one house monster to be online via any SFP+, power your AP (@10Gb? :P) and cameras and being easy to expand.

    I got a Boot Failed as well and did the recovery... turns out there was an issue that it would fail if there was no WAN connection on setup... super weird. The second I connected WAN and restarted, worked like a charm!

    I kinda hate Ubiquiti because of multiple bad experiences at work. Had hardware stabilty issues in their switches, software issues with the management tools to a point where the database would corrupt it was always a chore.
    Switched to MikroTik, yes there is a learning curve but it gives a lot more freedom and once you perfected your config, stability. Would love to see you review a CCR unit.
    I have set up a MiktoTik network at home now with multiple cAP AC's, with CAPsMAN deployment is great!

    I really like the capabilities of the Unifi gear, specifically the DM Pro. I want to move away from off-the-shelf solutions like Netgear, but while I am a techie, I am not a network engineer. Any issues with a noob setting up a Unifi network?
