I had a look at the UniFi system back in 2013 . considering that then I have installed 2 total systems as well as I’ve always been impressed.
Now Ubiquiti Networks have released the UK version of AmpliFi, billed as a top quality domestic system that promises to be “the utmost Wi-Fi” whilst being even much easier to roll out as well as preserve than the UniFi…
AmpliFi is more than a typical house router: it’s the utmost Wi-Fi system. With turbocharged 802.11ac Wi-Fi, AmpliFi utilizes several self-configuring radios as well as advanced antenna technology to bring ubiquitous Wi-Fi protection to any type of home.
The dual radio hardware supports 802.11b/g/a/n/ac as well as WPA2-PSK AES/TKIP. The mesh router can be used stand-alone or with other AmpliFi components for multi-hop, self-healing wireless protection as well as enhanced range.

The 10 cm soft touch matt white cube router is a very pretty thing with its sleek style and touchscreen display.

While a lot of of us start off using the built-in WiFi on our ISPs router, it’s normally not long before the unholy mess of wireless extenders as well as powerline adapters appear in an attempt to plug the gaps around the house.
AmpliFi’s router as well as mesh points work together to get rid of dead spots in your house as well as supply a seamless experience for your household as well as all their devices.
Setup is elegantly simple. There’s a Gigabit Ethernet port on the back to link to your primary router or switch. It has a additionally 4 Gigabit Ethernet ports you can use for hardwired devices in the room.
The USB port on the rear is “reserved for future use”. It would be nice to be able to add a difficult drive on right here for some data sharing action. Or exactly how about a 3G/4G USB dongle for sharing a cellular connection.
Once it’s plugged in as well as booted the screen prompts you to download the iOS or Android app to continue the setup (you can likewise do this by means of a web browser of you prefer). The app uses Bluetooth LE to speak to the AmpliFi hardware.
We measured the router consuming around 6 watts (manufacturers quotes max power usage of 11 Watts) as well as the mesh points using around 4 watts each.
The column of little blue LEDs on the meshpoint are an instant visualisation of signal strength as well as these LEDs can be turned off from the app too if you prefer.

The primary unit displays the time as well as date however a tap of its circular screen cycles through other info like internet traffic as well as port status.
The mesh point electronics as well as antenna are attached to the mains plug with an innovative magnetic coupling which includes contacts to pass the power.
This allows you to steer the antenna for maximum reception. In reality the range of motion is bit limited. A more beneficial benefit of the mag-mount is its capability to cope with curious little people that may discover swinging on the unit to irresistible. other manufacturers WiFi gain access to points may not survive the rug rat test so well
