There was a problem filtering reviews right now. Please try again later.
I was convinced my home was built over an Indian burial ground. The native American's hated networks and WiFi. I had literally been through six routers in two years. After reading 100's of router reviews I'd take a chance and purchase a new router. Always high-end equipment. I was positive Amazon would refuse to sell me any more routers because I returned so many. Thank you Amazon for understanding my plight.
Gave up on Netgear because (3) of my routers either ran 10x slower, dropped connections, or flat out failed following firmware updates. Lost a R7000, R8000, and XR500. I never plan on buying another Netgear router. I truly believe Netgear pushes out new firmware to break your router so you will need to replace it. Had been running DD-WRT on a XR500 (DumaOS is a sick joke) but it was a hack DD-WRT so router limped along still requiring daily reboots.
Next tried (3) TP-Link routers (AC5400, C5400x). GUI would hang, would not give out new IP's. 2.4GHz radio would randomly shut off throughout the day. 2-3 reboots per day. No thanks.
Next Synology RT2600AC. All good except hardwired Ethernet ports kept dropping my VOIP every 10-30 seconds. Support offered no help even though I sent in all logs and reports showing VOIP coming and going. RJ45 ports unusable.
Next ASUS GT-AC11000. 2.4GHz radio would cut out every 2-3 minutes. Clients would not stay connected and some would not connect at all. Sent it back.
Okay, another month of research and decided on the Amplifi HD. A mesh for me? Had I lost my mind? I was that desperate. And for all those online videos where people gush over the physical design and even how nice the cardboard packaging box is... ugh. I don't care if the hardware looks like a busted toaster at the landfill. I just need it to work.
** I'm a hardware IT professional with >30 yrs experience. I've installed and managed 1,000's of machines and networks. But when I come home I don't want to be bothered troubleshooting my equipment daily. **
My home network contains ~120 network-attached devices, albeit load average is low. Nothing a quality router should have trouble with. The Amplifi HD installed very easily but I must report the first system I installed had a defective mesh point so I sent everything back for a new system. 2nd system installed easily and all three components are functioning properly. It's only been online for ~18 hours but that's 17.5 hours longer than any of my other routers lasted. I did call Amplifi tech support with questions about separating 2.4 and 5 networks and port forwarding. The rep was AMAZINGLY helpful. I'm mean shockingly knowledgeable! Bravo to Ubiquity for such high quality phone support. I'm still wondering if it was a dream.
I'm old school IT so managing a router via mobile app was weird as heck. I REALLY need a PC/web based interface to be happy... That said, it was so simple, a MAC person could do it... (it's just a joke). Also, the reason I needed a PC/web interface is because I was troubleshooting my old routers daily. But if the Amplifi just keeps working, I can just forget it - and that's the way IT should be. I have many other things here to play with instead of routers ; ). Like a car, you should be able to just "get in it and go". No fiddling under the hood.
- WiFi range is very good with the router and (2) mesh points. But 20K sq' might be a stretch unless you're in a warehouse with no walls.
- Performance is excellent on my LAN. Not concerned with the WAN because my ISP is so terrible I'm embarrassed to report my service rate.
- Installation is very simple. But I did take the time to change the default IP range and a few other settings. Would like web access but I realize I'm a dying breed.
- When creating a second SSID, the app forces a -2g or -5g name extension. They need to fix that. Don't tack on anything to our SSID name.
- Reliability. Yep, this is the big one. Just work man! And so far, it's working.
Yes this review is early in the game but I had to write something due to my horrible experiences with so many dreadful routers. Hopefully I can now cancel some of my psychiatrist sessions.
The base unit along with the mesh points are simply beautiful. The look is clean and fits nicely on a bookshelf in plain view. This differs from the ugly insect looking routers out there. Those you hide The Amplifi HD system, is a clean looking device and can comfortably sit in the open like a classy stereo system or a NEST thermostat.
Setup was effortless and the APP for iPhone is the way to go. Just a few taps and you are good to go. Even better, the system, comes with a quick start guide in the box which is clearly written and guides you visually through the process of setup. Once the base station is setup, you simply plug in the mesh points and within a few moments they find the base station and your network is alive. On their website you can get access to the owners manual if you want to preview what is involved.
The base station has a clear and well thought out touch screen. It is fun to watch the blue and cyan meters as the network is used and pushed with real-time content. From the touch screen there are other views that show data consumption, address information, and such.
The app is really cool. From it, you can view and configure everything. You can check the heath of the network and even test it. A few taps and things that need static addresses can be setup. The system even proposes addresses that it knows are open so you don't need to over think it. It is possible to pause the internet for all or specific devices. It even gives a nice list of all the active devices, if they are on 5G or 2.4G, and the name/type of device it is. Great information and functionality at your fingertips. I am glossing over the top things but it can do more
Performance has been seriously breathtaking. No lags, hiccups, buffers,... of any kind. I have a reliable internet connection and my old router had all of this. Even worse, you had to drop to 2.4G depending on where you were within the wireless bubble. Now I can get 5G anywhere and it is fast and smooth.
I use technology of some sort all day long. I am used to it and it has been a very long time that something truly innovative has come out. This is the first tech thing that I have gotten in a while that is very exciting and does exactly what they say it will. No BS, no fluff, just correct and thoughtful design with proper execution.
The price is well within the range of similar systems that are trying to provide a mesh network. I found it to be the best price and it was cheaper then other system that I did not see as better in any way. This is also using 802.11ac and has room to grow so I know this purchase will be serving me and my users for years to come.
I you use wireless technology in your home or small office; this is simply the best wireless system/solution I have ever seen. It is beautiful, fast, easy to manage/setup, powerful, and designed for future growth.
If you are skeptical, visit their website and read the CEO's blogs. The company comes from very impressive roots. They may rethink networked devices like Tesla re-thought the car.
Top reviews from other countries
We bought this kit, followed the instructions on the VM website to set the hub to modem mode, and plugged in the router only at first. This instantly improved the reach all around the house, but seeing as we had the mesh extenders as well, we plugged them in too (all UK plugs by the way).
The app made it very easy to set up the system. The mesh extenders have small LEDs which light up depending on the signal strength; I moved one to a better spot for full-strength coverage. The app also shows you how well the system is working.
Now we have full strength coverage all around the house and into the garden. The kit looks cool and is user-friendly; so simple to tap the screen on the router to scroll through various read-outs such as download speeds. It has a number of ports so you can plug in plenty of ethernet cables.
Our kit has now been in use for two months and not once have we had to reboot the system - strong, consistent coverage and worth the money given how many devices we connect to it, including home security.
Bien, decir que ha cumplido de sobra las expectativas, barajé muchas otras posibilidades a la hora de montar mi red mesh y me decanté por esta sobretodo por su diseño y por la confianza que tengo en la marca ubiquiti.
El diseño es precioso en comparación a cualquier otro dispositivo de su categoría.
La facilidad de instalación hace de este dispositivo una muy buena opción para cualquier tipo de usuario, teniendo en cuenta que también dispone de configuraciones avanzadas para usuarios más exigentes.
El alcance que ofrece y la cobertura de señal es bastante buena, teniendo en cuenta que está destinado a un uso doméstico y no profesional.
El software de gestión del dispositivo, aunque simple, funciona a la perfección.
Algo a tener en cuenta, es el servicio postventa al cliente, ya que a través de la app tiene acceso a un chat las 24h del día en el cual resuelven las dudas y ayudan con todo tipo de instalación.
Solo decir que después de comprar el kit de dos satélites y router, quedé tan contento que he comprado otro router independiente y un satélite más. Ahora jardín y vivienda completa tiene wifi en toda la parcela sin ninguna zona oscura.
Aunque el precio puede echar para atrás en un primer momento, comprarlo me ha evitado muchos dolores de cabeza...
