I just bought the AC-Pro too as an AP to my existing AC68u. This deal is tempting if it plays well together!
Yeah thats what im thinking. Im moving house and changing ISP next week and unsure if my router is locked to the ISP, so was thinking of buying a new one anyway…
Just unsure if the AC Pro will play nicely with thisfrom my research unfortunately the two won't mix. Unifi and Amplifi are two different product lines. You won't be able to control them together at least. https://community.ubnt.com/t5/Upcoming-Products/Amplifi-unde…
I think the best way to extend is using the UAP-AC-M line. However, this Amplifi + extender is really good value.
Yes, but UAPs can only be one hop wireless.

https://www.troyhunt.com/how-i-finally-fixed-my-parents-dodg…the jet ski writeup here is for UAP-AC-M-PRO and UAP-AC-M, which are different products to the one listed here. Very good read though.
Yes and no. The following is guesswork. I don't think the UAC-AC-Pro will "mesh" with the Amplifi. However you could put them both on the same network - put the Unifi in bridge mode and connect to a switchport - and so long as they have the same SSID and password it should work. But they wouldn't have a common GUI so any settings you put on Amplifi wouldn't apply to Unifi, and vice-versa.
I wouldn't do it myself. Stick with one or the other.
Unifi and Amplifi will not work together.
Or, should say, UAP-AC-Pro will not be part of Amplifi mesh point.
Better to choose either Unifi family or Amplifi family. (I go for Unifi, no Amplifi back then lol)
What is this
Wireless mesh router. Your normal home router does the Internet, firewall, and wireless, all in one box. But you only get wireless in one spot and further away you are from that spot the slower it gets. This product also does Internet, firewall, and wireless, but you can put additional "mesh extenders" around the house. No wires required - they mesh wirelessly. Gives a strong wireless signal throughout the whole house.
Looks like a clothes dryer for smurfs.
I came here thinking it was a really expensive "designer" alarm clock radio…
its just some BS fantasy advertising that make you to pay big $ for some trash,
no different between this and a $45 tp-link router, for the "mesh extenders" you need to buy them separately for $189 each! You can get a WiFi signal booster for $20-30 easily !A mesh network is nothing like a $30 booster.

this is why i said is bs ! NBN offers download speeds of up to 100Mbps, mesh got 1Gbps 2Gbps… 10 Gbps but so what ?!?!
the maximum speed you could get is 100Mbps from ur isp !!! the "mesh network" wont speed it up to a 1Gbps!!a $30 booster with 802.11n got 450Mbps more then enough for the 100Mbps internet speed! if still not happy then get an 802.11ac with 1.3Gbps, still much cheaper !
@voltagex:
what u actually get ar affected by many reasons, this "Ubiquiti AMPLIFI AFI-R-AU High Density HD Home Wi-Fi wireless Router" is not one of them, u won't get any speed boost.
anyone know a little about networking could tell u that, no need to try.this is why i said is bs ! NBN offers download speeds of up to 100Mbps, mesh got 1Gbps 2Gbps… 10 Gbps but so what ?!?!
the maximum speed you could get is 100Mbps from ur isp !!! the "mesh network" wont speed it up to a 1Gbps!!For someone who claims to know what they're talking about, you really don't have much of a clue.
@Porthos:
For someone who claims someone don't have much of a clue, you only have an objection without any doubtable reason.@samelight:
🙄🙄🙄🙄Here's a question to you then, do you think there's any benefit of gigabit Ethernet over 10/100 Ethernet?
@Porthos:
to a LAN yes, to a WAN no.
Here's a question back to you sir, what kind of home users need a gigabit Ethernet LAN for home use??@samelight: You're kidding me aren't you? You say yourself there's a benefit to having gigabit Ethernet LAN then ask what kind of home users needs gigabit Ethernet LAN?
Me. It's called streaming video over your Ethernet, along with the constant stream of information that comes in from multiple devices as this is a home made NAS box that also processes all internet traffic as a extra firewall. I've got a maximum speed of 400Mb/s via Ethernet before my cpu and Raid setup doesn't give me anymore.
You're kidding me aren't you? You say yourself there's a benefit to having gigabit Ethernet LAN then ask what kind of home users needs Ethernet LAN?
im not kidding and im asking what kind of home users need a "gigabit" Ethernet LAN, ar u blind ? or u ar thinking only home users ar using Ethernet LAN??
im not kidding and im asking what kind of home users need a "gigabit" Ethernet LAN, ar u blind ? or u ar thinking only home users ar using Ethernet LAN??
You seriously make zero sense. The fact you think that just because someone's internet speed is at 'x' Mbps that their LAN should be less than that just speaks volumes about how little clue you have.

i said with 802.11n LAN speed is 4x faster, with 802.11ac 13x faster, thats more then enough and cost less.
where the hell is "their LAN should be less than that" came from? For someone who claims to know what they're talking about, you really don't have much of a clue!!!dude why u keep BS like this ?! firstly took away the "gigabit" and then add something i never said, thats ur clues and that make sense?!
@samelight: I quoted exactly what you said, it's not my fault you can't string a simple coherent sentence together to support an argument.
The fact you believe a '$30 wifi booster' and this are the same shows your lack of knowledge on the subject. Also the fact you asked what kind of home user needs a gigabit LAN shows your complete lack of knowledge on the subject.
You also seem to believe that the advertised speeds for a wifi device are actually what you'll receive in real world usage.
@Porthos:
still BSing, i dont c any part of "I quoted exactly what you said" with "their LAN should be less than that" in it,
and i also don't the word "gigabit" in the "exactly what you said" part.and you ar using those to prove im your lack of knowledge on the subject, that the way u try to make "sense". Also the fact that u dont know what kind of home user needs a gigabit LAN shows your complete lack of knowledge in real world.
the actually speed of coz slower then the advertised speeds, but not by much. You also seem to believe that by saying this and making up what ppl have said could help u with ur nonsense, it really doesnt kid.
@samelight:
The only one 'BSing' (as you claim it) is you. Please go back to school and learn how to write a coherent sentence, until then it's basically impossible to actual pin down what you're even remotely saying.and you ar using those to prove im your lack of knowledge on the subject, that the way u try to make "sense". Also the fact that u dont know what kind of home user needs a gigabit LAN shows your complete lack of knowledge in real world.
It was such a stupid question to ask that it didn't need an answer. Here's your answer then just to appease you; every home which has Ethernet should be gigabit Ethernet (unless it was installed many years ago before Cat 5e/6 was available). People use their home network for a lot more than simply downloading/streaming from the internet.
the actually speed of coz slower then the advertised speeds, but not by much. You also seem to believe that by saying this and making up what ppl have said could help u with ur nonsense, it really doesnt kid.
Kid? Yeah, epic insult there to make up for you being out of your depth by miles. Wifi actual speeds are nowhere even near their advertised speeds unless you're sitting 50cm away from the AP with no other wifi networks around at all. Fact. They're the best they can hope for in lab testing, not real world usage. Exactly the same as the advertised speeds of 3G/4G. Are you one of those people who believe cellular networks will be able to service everyone's internet needs now and into the future?

this shows your lack of knowledge on the subject and u ar trying to change the topic.

again this shows your lack of knowledge on the subject and u ar trying to change the topic, "every home which has Ethernet should be gigabit Ethernet" so what? and thats not true btw.

from wifi to "coherent sentence" to "Ethernet" and finally into 3G/4G & the future, obviously u ar lack of knowledge on the subject and keep chaning the topics. when u said "nowhere even near " u could not say number out loud coz u know it still much higher then ur actual internet speed, and this can be googled easily.
@samelight: nothing to do with throughput..it's also the latency..booster cut performance in half..obviously have no clue what you're talking about..
@aarick:
if u wanna to change the topic, thats fine lets talk about the latency then, what make u said booster got higher "latency" then the "Mesh" ? u sounded like u know what u ar talking about then tell me whats the latency gonna be in both devices and then u can compare them!!
For someone who claims to know what they're talking about, you really don't have much of a clue!!
Hmmm, would be awesome if it was available through their eBay store with the 20%. Cannot contact them to confirm though
Interesting. Would definitely get if 20% off also with free extra extender
Yeah me too
My favourite read was the "Effects of Wi-Fi (2.45 GHz) exposure on apoptosis, sperm parameters and testicular histomorphometry in rats: a time course study.” Riviting, edge of the seat thrill ride. So good, i think it broke my tinfoil hat from my mind exploding!
tinfoil is not needed…so just as well.
Good price. But I went with an Orbi RBK50 on the eBay 20% off sale.
This is pretty cheap deal considering the ple equivalent is $399.00
https://www.ple.com.au/Products/628555/Ubiquiti-Amplifi-HD-W…
I'm not sure about this seller though?
The PLE listing includes an additional Mesh point which is around $190
Looks like it's just the one, which is also included in this deal.
Yes exactly. Not sure if megahowler knew what I was getting at.
How do I redeem this, or have stocks run out?
Looks like stock on the gift is out; there was a button to add the gift to cart as well, but it's not there anymore
waiting for restock?@devicedeals
Negged cause out of stock on the extender
I have a Telstra MAX 2 router, is there a mess extender thing that I can use to extend the signal to the backyard garage (that is compatible with the MAX 2)?
Did anyone have success ordering the router and receiving a free extender? I ordered mine, with an additional extender, but only received one extender (i.e. not the free extender). I have raised an issue with the site, but no response so far.
Still waiting a a resolution
I just bought an Ubiquiti UAC-AC-Pro. Any idea if it will work well with this, or if the mesh point extender will show as another SSID?
