How to Extend Your Campus WiFi with UniFi AC Mesh Access Points | Full Setup GuideDescription:

[@hungrywolf4903]

a video on the physical installation of the hardware around the buildings and the powering up of the units would be to me, worth a watch. You wouldn't need to actually attach stuff but a walk-around showing and explaining the difficulties faced would be good, and to see how, these years later, how it's performing. That would be really informative

[@torogipro]

MESH WiFi? Is it good? What do you think?

[@erollmaravilla3766]

does centralized hotspot work on ubnt? i will extend my mesh using litebeam gen2 and ill connect my mesh.

[@patiaditya]

@@erollmaravilla3766 in theory it can work

I am currently in the process of doing the research on how to configure multiple access points as "MESHED" access points and I am still looking. This video shows how to add an additional POE access point, not a meshed access point. The whole point of a meshed system is not having to run ethernet lines all over the desired area. Right? Should be....just a power source at the access point is all that is needed. No?

Really gave me an idea. I already have a TP Link eap 225 mesh at the corner of the house. it works great to the metal shed 75 ft. away…IF door is open…door closed? ->no WIFI . If I got another AC1200 mesh EAP225 for the shed, would I connect it to a router in the shed acting as an extender? OR just an extender with one antenna into the shell of the shed interior, and the other antenna talking to the the EAP225 at the house, WITH the shed door CLOSED?! Thanks! Chas

[@ecsyntric]

would have been better if you at least did one install of the wireless ap

Show the mesh settings in UniFi and explain the cabling necessary to power the exterior units.

Hello there! Can you make an actual setup and configuration on the wireless mesh wifi?

How many floors is the campus?

[@MuhammadYasin-xm3uu]

Hi, could you please confirm ,unifi ac mesh 1 Access point can accommodate how many users approx without trouble at speed limit 6mbps max per user.

[@Tagalized]

what kind of down.. i mean if power down then they automatically switch to others right?? but what if its not power down..like theres still a power but just dont have internet like lancable problem.. would still switch to others ap??

[@emvaldz6635]

I have a question hope you can help or any one on the comments section, so far I know for each hop according to ubiquiti the bandwidth is cut in half, the thing is that I set up a public Hotspot in a town, and setting the bandwidth on the vouchers as 5 mbps down and 3 mbps up, if I have up to three hops, then on the last ap I will be getting less than 1 mpbs on download?, what I don't get is that when using multiple hops, what is cut down is the link speed between them or de total bandwidth passing trough the link wich are two things different.

[@namiko9106]

Can this Mesh WiFi Unifi AC be used as AP for PISO WIFI? How long does it reach approximately (with line of sight of course) in meters? Thanks for the reply sir.

[@duranopaulo]

If your planning to build a captive portal you need to use the same brand of products like Ubiquiti or Tp-link in order for you to manage in the controller. The answer is Yes, but you need to use the Ubiquity products in your set up or else you have to configure each without the central controller.

If i have a leased line connection could I be able to connect the internet through the Unifi 24 port switch

[@gastonouellet1109]

Hi, First i like how you did your video and thanks taking time for it. I do have 2 ac mesh connected to a wifi hub distributor from Vidéotron who they are my internet supplier witch is connected to there main fiwi hub. So i do not have a unifi controler. So I connected the 24 v device with the first unifi ac mesh on the poe tap and the first ac mesh on the lan tap. I did power the 24 v with the 110v. I did connected the second ac mesh to the wifi hub and also did same connections to the second 24 v and power it 110 v. I just could see one ac at the time. I did many connections ways and all the same. I did what you juste made on this video and they are not communicating together. Can you help me on this situation? Thanks in advance! Gas

Hi there - I have a couple of these outdoor wireless access points - should they all have the same channel width and channel settings?

[@delosmark18]

Will it work if the are trees in between the access point?

hello sir I am planning to use Mikrotik RB4011 as my dhcp portal for hotspot and 6 unifi mesh wifi to cover our entire subdivision is that setup possible? can I mesh 6 unify mesh and use Mikrotik RB4011 as portal for hotspot?

[@abdelmounimsouktani6819]

hi freinds how can I have one SSID grouping too or three access point tnks

[@eltondioquino]

Gagana ba yan sir kahit mesh lang bibilhin ko gagamitin ko syang access point. At macocontrol ko din b yung portal management at makaka create ako ng voucher? Bale ipplug ko sya sa converge router? Then yung unifi mesh na yan dyan magcoconnect lahat ng guest tapos controllable pa din b via unifi controller or portal na app? Salamat in advance

how many range every AP sir?

[@roibeltran8307]

hey mate..nice vids..

[@cephas2009]

You could have saved a lot on a couple of access points, by changing the stock antennas with another with higher gain. Nice video

[@emvaldz6635]

have tried that? did it work?

[@tmillerau]

No that's not the correct way to do things... speed requires two traffic transfer... so unless you laptop or phone also has a stronger antenna it's only half the equation

[@cephas2009]

@@tmillerau This is correct. The antennas of the mobile device is a critical bottleneck.

Hi please correct me if im wrong, im planning to have a wifi hotspot in my area using unifi ac mesh, but if i only have na ac mesh i need to open always my pc or laptop like others say, but using the ac controller, i dont need to open always my pc or laptop?
