Question

My Ubiquiti Amplifi Shows up on Saturday. Has anyone segmented the traffic just for Ring or just setup one SSID? Share your setup's please?  

Answer 1

Why not look at the ubiquiti dream machine and it’s wireless access points? A little more depending and has much greater flexibility with vlan capability while still being the same company.

@synecology57 I cannot find it in stock.  

Answer 2

If you are talking about separate subnets and VLANs then I don’t believe the Amplifi family routers can do those. Although you might be able to setup a Guest WiFi to segment traffic. Btw, which Amplifi model you are getting? I believe currently there are four models available.

@antitragus6639 it was limited Pickens on Amazon and got the AMPLIFI HD most current model I Hope. I wanted alien but it was sold out.

@antitragus6639 most of my traffic will be on the 5 gig range and assume ring will be 2. 4 for my ring pro and flood.

@gati5 Doorbell pro supports both 5GHz and 2. 4GHz but Flood light only supports 2. 4. Unless you are creating a separate 2. 4 GHz only WiFi SSID, your doorbell pro will switch between 5 and 2. 4 automatically. You may have to play with the channels if you live in a WiFi congested area.

@antitragus6639 Thank You!

I have mine setup with 4 different SSID’s

Answer 4

Reviews are mixed. Looks like the old Apple Airport? Not shipping until May from Amazon. AMPLIFI will be here tomorrow so we shall see how it stacks up.  

Answer 5

Amplifi showed up a day early and installed. WiFi is great! Camera signal is awesome. I had trouble getting Sonos and Ring Pro reestablished. Flood did fine with the 5Ghz. I had to split the SSID’s temporarily to get the Ring pro to connect. All good now and happy with the results.  

Answer 6

I had the amplifi HD for a week and returned it. Their advertised 20k sqft of coverage is pure BS or maybe true in a field. All my ring cams had a huge delay and horrible rssi. Hope you have better luck for for my house build it just didn’t work.

I have 2000sqft brick exterior and signal is spot on in every corner but speed drops at the edge. Would prefer Alien but it was not available.

Chuck, nice, I needed if for 4k block single story so I can see now why the drop was so drastic for me.
