UniFi 6 Long-Range Access Point U6-LR

Bought this access point to begin slowly replacing an existing Netgear Orbi system, house is a small bungalow which is narrow but sets back very far from the front of the house. We have Ring devices at the front and rear and with the Netgear Orbi mesh system placement unfortunately one of the cameras keeps disconnecting as one of the satellites in the mesh system loses connection continually. This is the first unit bought to slowly replace it, with a UniFi system which is designed and used by a lot of corporate networks. This is the U6-LR (WiFi 6) unit, despite some of the reviews stating it's a "large" unit and it looking large in photos, it's smaller than I expected it to be, approximately 22cm across and about 4.8cm in depth (front to back). Having tested this on a Virgin Media 350Mbps connection it is impressive. I have it mounted high up above a window in the middle of bedroom. In the next room which is a lounge, it can still shower out enough power (once set to full output power on both 2.4Ghz and 5Ghz bands) to provide WiFi devices with 215-220Mbps. This is impressive considering the radio signals have to travel through a build in wardrobe which is about 1.5m deep, and then through a brick wall. Couple the power of this unit with the excellent configuration system (Unifi Network) and it works a treat. I don't yet have a UniFi console, only this AP, however using the console available for both Windows and Mac OS I've been able to customize the access point and produce the screenshots. This ISN'T going to be powerful enough to penetrate through several brick walls and still provide full speed, no access point could ever do that. However it will still penetrate 1 brick wall and a built in wardbrobe/closet with a loss of about 40% of speed. This unit, like most Ubiquiti UniFi products requires power from PoE, and cannot be power any other way, nor does it come with a PoE injector. I simply bought a TP Link PoE injector that does both 802.3at and 802.3af for £17 from Amazon, this works a treat. Overall very nice bit of kit, expensive but allows for a lot of customisation at network level (including VLAN, VPN, Meshing etc).

Brilliant product, especially if paired with the dream machine from ubiquity. Brilliant range and the signal strength is good. Quite easy to install. Has all the kit needed to mount it to any surface and the setup is easy. With the unify app, I've been able to stay connected up to 267 ft away with direct line of sight

These are and UniFi is one of the best Prosumer Access Points in the industry. Highly recommend!

You get what you pay for. These are very good but far from cheap.

This was advised my IT friend. This is being used in a professional practice. Now I have no interruptions in my practice for the WI_FI or PHONE signals

Before I start, I've been using Ubiquiti products for a long number of years. Had really high hopes for this AP but its been nothing but a nightmare since install. 2.4Ghz - no issues. 5Ghz - extremely unstable (Tested from laptop, Samsung Phone, Mac and Iphone). All show same issues with frequent disconnecting, 5Ghz SSID not being broadcast. When connected, can stay connected for about 30 minutes and then disconnects, SSID disappears. Have tried all the variation of settings, used the forums as well but problem still exists. I'll be returning this item and going back to AC-PRO. As it stands, the product is unusable.

Pushed Wi-Fi 20m down my garden, perfect.

I had high hopes having read previous reviews and watched some yt reviews. In my environment it just didn’t deliver. The structure of the walls and floors are reinforced concrete, which certainly doesn’t help but it performed worse or at best as well as any half decent standalone router. The range was poor. Throughput significantly reduced. Extra star for the amazing config and management capabilities but that’s about it. Shame it didn’t help improve the signal strength. I’ve had to send it back.
