ubiquiti amplifi? dont even know what to buy here; i thought i needed white disks with blue lights but it looks like some funky tuning-fork access points in the kit that dont have PoE capability


How large of a house are you trying to cover and do you have any separate buildings you are trying to cover and how far away are they?

You could do what I am seriously considering for $250 if it fits your needs. Still trying to figure out if the tri band is fully function if you do wired backhauling.

I am looking at buying two Amplifi HD routers, not the full system. The night light/tuning fork won’t be part of my setup. The two routers will function just like one router and one tuning fork except you will get some hardwire options to do wired backhauling and wired connections at the satellite since the router has 4 lan ports/1 wan.

I may just get a 86u and turn my crappy 56u into an ap using aimesh. I know at least it has good hardware specs but I'll miss out on that cool ubiquiti remote access thing you posted.

I know Asus turned alot of people off when they kicked all the modified tmo routers off aimesh because that was a great cheap way to add aps.

ETA 3800sf house on one level, pool 150ft more to one side, 400sf underneath house in basement.
