NanoHD

Mind sharing where you bought them from?


I am looking into setting up a separate router and access points and liked the unifi but at the time AC-Pro was $215 & nanoHD was $230. Had found TP-Link EAP245 at $120 and was considering going with them but can justify $50 premium for unifi since there are so many more tutorials and resources for them.


Thanks


I'm not in the market at the moment so I'm not dialed into pricing, but in the past https://fleetnetwork.ca/ has had decent prices on ubiquiti products.

They have really bad customer service, would not recommend. Channel Electronics, FetchCart and PC Canada are generally the cheapest 3, though I still always check on ShopBot. Can always price beat on Mikes Computer Shop or Memory Express.

I actually just ordered a ES-16-XG from Mikes, price matched to SoftwareCity. Price beat approved on Monday, ordered, shipped later that day, got it yesterday. Finally rid of the HH3000 without any speed loss :thumb:

Memory Express price matched against https://www.fetchcart.ca . Ended up around 210 IIRC. I am sure there are deals to be had when newegg etc have their specials but I didn't want to wait.
 
I got them from MemEx for the $170.


Newegg had a sale on, and so did MemEX, but egg was slightly cheaper iirc. They wouldnt uber-beat it, but did match it.
 
I used this: https://community.ubnt.com/t5/EdgeR...-Guide-configuration-and-tidbits/td-p/1686977, pretty sure it's linked in the DSLR thread too, but it's a lot of pages to go through.

I had to go the ES-16-XG route as my (super expensive) "media converter" since if I sync my SFP at 1Gbps, I get really bad performance. Some areas do, some don't, nobody quite has an explanation for it. So the Bell SFP goes into the ES-16-XG, then I grabbed a 10Gtek DAC to hook it up to my EdgeRouter 4's SFP. Still only 940Mbps obviously, but that's all fine and well. Running baby jumbos too, so 1500 MTU on the PPPoE.

Might end up building an x86 10G router, haven't quite decided. Picked up a used X520-DA2 from eBay to put into my server though, maybe I'll just virtualize a router, but I'd really prefer my router be a dedicated box. I'll play around with it once it shows up.

I really wish they would come out with a virtual appliance. I don't mind paying for good stuff so its not like it has to be free. I run Mikrotik inside of a VM on a semi dedicated box and it laughs at > 9gbit NAT but Unifi is just so much cooler lol.

Look in to pfsense running on a rr210ii or r220. I'm running it on a r210ii (mind you not with 10g networking) and it works great.
