Ubiquiti UniFi 6 Lite Access Point Setup

[@TechOut]

Just got mine today as well. Everyone was saying Wifi 6 doesn't help single devices speed much just overall speeds of the connected devices. I kind of disagree at least in my case I'm seeing 100-150mbps faster speeds and better connections on single devices.

[@XenoChron]

Was hoping this video would show configuring this without a controller vs with...not everyone will have a dream machine setup in advance.

[@OnimeNoRice]

same here, all the videos i find has a controller. all im trying to do is set up using the ISP supplied router, and just trying to extend the wifi. edit: kzbin.info/www/bejne/Z5Wai5uIfrykh68 this video does it with an existing router and he goes step by step, using the mobile app. really good

[@MarRange]

@@OnimeNoRice thank you for sharing the link!!

[@pfcrow]

Thanks! I've installed several of these, and I'm having trouble with one, but I couldn't remember what the removal tool looked like. I see it there at 1:38 so now I can find mine and fix my problem. (Three unboxing videos I just watched simply set aside the unopened packet of parts!) You never know what detail in your videos someone will find helpful.

[@0044512]

You should probably mention that UniFi6 AP are not compatible with Unifi Cloud Key G1, which is now EOL. So just bought one of these and now need to spend additional $200 for Cloud Key G2 Plus. Would have gotten an older unit if knew that...

Y Punto de acceso LA Ubiquiti UniFi 7, ESCOMPATIBLE CON UNIFI CLOUD KEY?

[@ichevtchenko]

wow I didn't know Putin had an american accent and was into networking gear! xD

[@friggerx3150]

😂😂

[@Dorff_Meister]

Thanks. I am going to be wall mounting two of these this week and this answered all my questions.

[@robertdepesci3418]

i dont understand how you connected the access point to router/switch

[@AlessioSpark]

Hi, I have a question please. Can I buy one of these and use it without any other sort of ubiquity equipment (cloud Key/dream machine ecc...)? It can be configured using the network app on a PC / Smartphone or It is mandatory to use a ubiquiti controller?

[@cpF01]

Thanks for this. I just bought one... with the hoe to extend my Shaw WiFi service, and stabilize coverage in my house. The Shaw cable modem/ wifi / router combo is way down in the mechanical room in my basement. My hope it that this unit will work for my application. I have no other Ubiquiti equipment, but I've ran CAT5E and I've got a PoE injector and an 8 port 100/1000 ethernet hub. The goal to just log into the local wifi ssid and not have to change endpoints as you move around the house.

[@imperialdoggo5826]

You can move Shaw stuff. I also use Shaw.

[@apku04]

the poe switch shall support 44-58V output for the AP, right?

[@tulio3571]

Hi there do they sell any bracket that connects to an electrical box ? thanks

[@collinsonyegbado309]

Thanks for the video. It's helpful. Sir i want to ask if one sets up on SSID on the controller, can all the Aps (U Lite 60)make use of this SSID (set up in the controller) after they are added?

[@aeioutil]

Nice video! I wonder if I can just get the plastic protective cover and paint it same color of my roof, instead of buying the specific (and expensive) plastic cover from Ubiquiti.

[@marksapollo]

Watching your videos, how many networks have you got? You have a full Ubiquiti setup, an Amplifi Alien setup and I don’t know what else. Is that right?

[@wilgin1972]

hi, thank's for the interesting video! Do i need the UniFi Network Controller to configure and use two UniFi 6 Lite AP in my house? best regards ... wilfried

[@imperialdoggo5826]

No. You should be fine, but a Unifi Console does help with command

[@ItsJoshnic]

Hi, do i have to use the phone App or is there a desktop version? i want to set it up for someone and would rather they have it on a desktop because they are very careless with phones.

[@tster06]

Hey do you need a dream machine or even a ubiquiti access point to set it up like that

[@imperialdoggo5826]

No. You can use the app, which is Unifi Network.

[@oliverlennon1392]

This is my first time setting up a Wi-fi network in a domestic application,is it as simple as downloading the unifi app and adding them or what’s the process please

[@imperialdoggo5826]

It’s pretty much like that, but you can also purchase a console for control and ease of use.

[@marksapollo]

What's the point though with a WiFi 6 access point if it only has a single gigabit Ethernet port? Thanks for the video though, will be interesting to see your speed test results with this.

[@GeekSmart]

The wireless connection is faster than the previous generation, and the single wired port is a Gigabit port.

[@TechOut]

No one who would be using a $99 access point would really have a 10G setup. Sure the port on the AP is Gigabit but likely the switch on the other end is as well. Along with the modem and any other devices. So the port on the AP isn't slowing anything down. They do make APs and switches with faster ports. This "lite" product isn't for that market.

[@marksapollo]

@@GeekSmart Yes but if WiFi 6 devices can hit 7gbps then why put a 1 gbps port on the access point? It seems to be built to restrict the speeds you could gain. Surely a 10 gbps port makes more sense especially from Ubiquiti?

[@marksapollo]

@@TechOut The modem makes no difference as no one has 6gbps internet yet. Not the main stream anyway. A lot of Ubiquiti kit seems to have ports faster then 1gbps though. Just seems pointless to me.

[@TechOut]

@@marksapollo the modem does matter. If you only have a gigabit port on the modem what's the point of having a faster one on the AP. Only time it would matter if for LAN connections. But again everything on the LAN would need faster than gigabit for it to matter.

[@spartan3070]

amazing video tutorial as always!!!

[@GeekSmart]

Thanks!

[@JoseyStranded]

Does the switch have to be one of Ubiquity's own or is just any switch ok?

[@imperialdoggo5826]

Use ubiquiti, or you risk shorting the equipment. Example being netgear uses pairs 1-2, 3-6, compared to ubiquiti using 4-5 and 3-6.

[@saviour7044]

What is its range? I need to use in 2 story big house around 2000ft each floor

[@imperialdoggo5826]

Around 1500 Ft2.

[@Querlos]

Hey ............. I didn't know Putin did reviews.

[@imvajid]

Hi. This AP can connect to a different main router (Dlink) and act as a Repeater or do I need the UniFi 6 router for this AP? Thank you.

[@DiamondCrustArmy]

Yes, as long as you have a POE line to it. Also, you need the UniFi controller software installed somewhere to configure. To use as a repeater set the same settings as your DLINK wireless configurations.

[@dougspaeth6931]

Can't find wear to set SSID. Have other unifi switched but router is synology

[@SouthFacedWindows]

Didnt know Vladimir Putin has side job !

[@Misfitswitch]

So no mesh system?

[@xraargu6212]

just installed one. The range *absolutely* ****sucks****. My old netgear AC750 wall warts provide much better coverage. Terribly disappointed. 15 ft away , through 1 wall unfinished on one side, getting -75DB on 2.4Ghz...I'm just shocked it's this bad.

[@imperialdoggo5826]

It might be a problem with the unit itself. You should get about 1500 Ft2 I believe.

[@Majid.king786]

Unifi 6 lite Poe voltage ⚡

[@imperialdoggo5826]

PoE is 15 watts, voltage is typically 24V, for all PoE standards. Does that make sense?

[@kris1]

Great tutorial from Vlad Putin

[@DerekDavis213]

Interesting that you wear an ApppleWatch, when the complex setup of Ubiquiti goes totally against the Appple philosophy.

[@slipk541]

is just me or this guy looks like Vladímir Putin? lol

[@andregqleao]

Vladimir Putin doing wifi review 😀

Finally! I was wondering how long I'd have to scroll down before I found someone else who noticed.... Lol
