Ubiquiti - UniFi 6,Wireless Long-Range Access Point | US Model | PoE Adapter not Included (U6-LR-US),tri_band

If you're a tech dud, like me, you may struggle. Fortunately, I know many tech people who do this stuff for me. We have been struggling with our Wifi for a while, and this was recommended to me wholeheartedly to me by a trusted friend saying it would benefit. And it absolutely has! No more dropping, and the signal is strong now throughout my house! Granted, my internet is currently suffering issues due to it being a new build and the builders janked my internet box, but we have a technician coming out to fix that, so I can only expect the signal to get better! I would not recommend this to people who do not know what they're doing, because even googling this was a little bit vague. 10/10, best Frisbee I've ever had.

Easy to install, range is pretty good for my needs. I installed it in a 60x36 Metal Barn by a fiberglass end light so the IP camera about 75 feet could be seen. The dust and water resistance was needed.

Bought the long range as one of the cameras outside was not getting a good signal. After setting this up, the camera is now working properly. This has a good range, easy to setup and only installed one in the middle of the 2500 sq ft house. Able to handle all (~45) devices. No problem encountered even when ~30 guests were connected to the access point.

Amazing access points. Purchased with a Ubiquity controller, which made it super easy to setup. Multiple VLANs for prod and public wifi networks. If you're a computer junky, this is easy to setup and performs so well! If you're not a technical person, you might struggle to setup.

When it worked it was great. I tried using this as part of a whole house setup with a Unifi dream router and a Unifi 16 port POE switch. The U6 LR would go thru its adoption cycle and go into service, but after a while it would just go randomly offline It was the only device on the POE side of the switch and It was using only a 30 ft run of a high quality commercial run of cat 6. So I knew it wasn't being deprived of power. Tried a number of things suggested by an IT specialist but it just kept cycling offline. Read a bunch of early reviews that this was an issue for the U6 LR.

This Unifi 6 is great. You will need a bluetooth connection to set it up properly and it does need to be connected to a network in order to set up. This is a PoE unit so you will need a PoE power supply. Downloaded the app on my phone to install name and password. The app talks about a Ubiquity Console so you need to choose "setting up a different unit" and then you will see the AP chioce. This is a wifi 6 unit and the range is amazing. I will be installing 2 more of these units in the near future.

We have two of this product, the long range access point, and six of the pro versions at our facility. For the most part they have worked well for over a year until a recent firmware release. After the new firmware was installed all of our security cameras fail to connect to these access points. (We are able to get the cameras to connect to other access points, and because of this we may simply have to replace all of the Ubiquiti access points.) We reached out to Ubiquiti back on 06-18-2024 for guidance, after a bit of back and forth messaging they requested lots of details. Once we got them all the details they needed, they sent us a message, on 06-27-2024, that they would have an expert review and get back to us. Since then we have heard nothing. We inquired with them again back on 07-05-2024 for an update...still nothing...not even a response that they are still looking into the issue...simply nothing. Also note that back on 06-18-2024 we requested they have a tech guide us with troubleshooting steps over the phone. They let us know that they do not offer phone support...only messaging back and forth, which has proven to be slow at best early in the process and now completely ineffective.

These have fantastic range and feel much more solidly built than the previous versions of the product. It works well both directly hardwired or in mesh configurations.
