I found the price of Ubiquit products not very competitive while looking for UniFi6 Pro AP, and realise there's a price increase across their products. There are whine on the Reddit. I'm not sure it's due to chip shortages, strong US dollar or …

Anyways, it seems SE eBay is the best price I can find on UniFi6 Pro AP at the moment.

Here is a summary of the unit price at the checkout

  • Saw that the asking price was $315 just yesterday! Increased by $5 overnight

    • +2

      I think they read this because price is now $312

      So discount is a little better than ops post

      • They must be monitoring OzB thread. 😊

        Prices updated, thx!

  • Thanks OP, got 2 - combined with further 5% cash back on $100 eBay ShopBack vouchers - worked out around $228 each depending on how you calculate it…

    • Only looks like 3% on my app, not bad if you can stack that!

  • Is anyone buying these to replace existing U6-Lite access points? and if so why? My current setup is 3x U6-Lites [one per level of house] supporting about 47 clients [devices, IoT, media players]

      I'm replacing two U6-Lites, mainly because I need the Lites elsewhere and was an opportunity to upgrade without costing very much. My Lites originally replaced AP-AC-Pros and I did find that although fast when close, the lites just didn't have the range I was used to with the old Pros - so I'm hoping the new U6-Pros will be a bit better.
      Saying all that though, the Lites have been great, and I wouldn't have otherwise replaced them this soon. If they work for you, keep them…!

      • Are you running dream machine with it or just using the app to control the APs?

        • +1

          UDM-Pro - and way too many other Ubiquiti switches and APs… ;-) - very expensive rabbit hole to go down…

          • @drmac: I already have a network switch and a modem/router so I was going to just run 2x U6-Pro as Wifi AP and disable the wifi of the modem/router. Would that work?

            • @csjc: I've never tried it, but I think you can just configure them from the Unifi app without a controller - however I feel you'd lose some/most of the benefit of the Ubiquiti/Unifi ecosystem by doing this - and it may be cheaper to look at some of the other brands where you're not paying the Ubiquiti/Unifi premium (I wouldn't know what to recommend though). I haven't looked to see if the current APs allow this - so do your research first to make sure.
              You can run the Unifi controller software from a Mac, Windows or Linux machine/VM/Docker container etc.. very easily - which would then give you the full benefits of the Unifi ecosystem.
              You can also get a Cloudkey controller which is a little hardware appliance that does this all for you too - but they're a few hundred dollars.

              • @drmac: So far when I was looking around for mesh or APs, Unifi came out cheaper but this means running it off the controller software and not using switch or dream machine. I will upgrade the switch and router eventually, but probably good starting point now is to get the whole house and yard covered with the U6s. Thanks for your input :)

  • Just got 2x TP-Link EAP650's for $189 each from Scorptec (plus shipping) to replace my UAP-AC-LRs.

    Don't know why the Ubi's think their worth $60 more…

    • The below mainly:

      EAP650 - 2x2 5Ghz
      U6 Pro - 4x4 5GHz, max transmit higher by 1-2 dBm

  • +1

    Wireless1 are selling these on their website for $259 free shipping every day, I'm not sure where I'm seeing the 20%+ off…

  • Adoption Requirements:

    Dream Machine Pro: Version 1.9.0-12 and later
    

    What does this mean if I am just running a dream machine non pro version? Just trying to get wifi further away from the dream machine.

  • Added one of these this week, with UDR main and a u6-mesh. Pending me mounting it, running it sitting vertically on a bench. So far it's an awesome piece and after an initial hiccup with a did UDR replaced under warranty, very good setup for bespoke configuration. I'm on 100/20 and have pretty much full performance anywhere up or down.

  • Do Pro’s have the same mount as Lites?

  • Do these come with a POE injector or do I need to buy one?

    • +1

      Need to buy one if your switch isn't POE (802.3at PoE+)

  • Amazon now has these for $255, Thanks to camelcamelcamel

  • Ordered today and within 2 hours I got a notification from AusPost that they had received express shipping details. That was very fast.

    • +1

      Na there is a trick to that. Sellers enter the size and weight of the box onto an online portal to generate a shipping label, which will put that message on the tracking information. The actual shipping of the item may not happen for another day or two.

      • True but in this case the delivery did happen very fast, ordered Friday received on Monday (yesterday).

  • Is there a good wired only router you would run with these? I have an older ubiquiti AP I want to upgrade but my old telstra gateway is really starting to die and I had always disabled the wifi on it so I really dont need a router with wifi.

    Any recommendation appreciated :)

  • My good old AC68U gives about 11MB/s transfer rate on internal LAN from NAS SSD to laptop M2. Wonder how fast will the U6 Pro provides.

    • That's only ~100Mb… you should be able to get close to 10x that with decent WiFi at both ends of the connection (changing the router won't help much if your laptop is old)

      • My laptop is a 7th Gen Intel DELL XPS, should be good enough. I might need to track down where the AP cable is connected to.

      • Installed a speedtest package on my NAS. The wire LAN speed is 1Gbps up and down. But the AC68U AP WiFi is only 60Mbps up and 40Mbps down.
        Took the router plug directly to the switch, it goes 400Mbps/250Mbps. The internal wall wiring is the issue.
