@grmpyprogrammer Not really. Their stuff has gotten too complicated and robust for home use, I think.

@ramsey I was gonna say get the Unifi Dream Machine — it’s what I have but my home setup is a lot more complex than yours — dream machine, PoE 24 port switch, 7 in-wall access points, and a smaller edge router in the basement for TV, AppleTV and some other stuff with cabled ethernet

@grmpyprogrammer I’m not opposed to getting Ubiquiti stuff, but I thought you were going to try to sell me on something else, since I recall you being upset about their move to cloud-managed devices a few years ago. :-)

@ramsey You only need it for setup and then you can turn it off, with local access only

@ramsey @grmpyprogrammer I’d upgrade to their unifi express or similar gateway, unless you want to jettison the AC Pros too.

@josh @grmpyprogrammer I’d love to keep them, so upgrading is probably best, but their stuff seems so complicated nowadays.
