Hello pals,
As in the title, is there any opensource or friendly open Wireless Access Point? or DIY solution ? I don’t ask for easy one, as long as it is performant.
I have actually two UniFi AP but these cloudy devices are getting on my nerve and honestly.
They are. I get dozens of them to refurb and they always get bought on eBay for this.
How do you manage to flash them, as OpenWRT states that of 2018 they aren’t supported anymore. (Ubi decided to sign the firmware)
You have to do some digging to get downgrade firmware. This site has a working link to v3.2 https://www.kiwivoip.co.nz/support/unifi-uap-lr-old-firmware-upgrade/
I’ve never actually done the process tbh. All I know is I keep cleaning them up and people keep buying them in packs of 3 🤷
I refuse to install Unifi equipment nowadays. They’ve alienated professional installers over the years in favour of targeting prosumers.
Ah, ok. That’s for the old ones. I’m using the nanoHD and a gifted AC lite. The devices work nicely, the software however, I’m not liking it a lot. As long as they work they can stay, but already I’m battling to keep their software running, as I’m running Debian trixie and unifi wants a mongodb install that isn’t available anymore.
