There's only one wireless client that could be better - I have an Amazon Fire TV Stick further away than location C behind a TV that reports fair to good signal, though the controller software reports it's connected at a link rate of 468 Mbps and the client performs fine. Location D, in particular, is very impressive to me - the signal has to penetrate a ceiling/floor here.

This helps in my situation to ensure coverage to locations C, D, E and F, a floor above and below the AP. This is consistent with a ceiling mounted AP, it would extend coverage over the floor that it's operating on. It seems to me that the signal extends horizontally more than vertically. Tests are with iperf and a 2x2 ac client. Since I've never experienced ac speeds, the speed was a nice shock.Ī: office, 20 feet away partially obscured by a wallī: living room couch, 10 feet away line of sightĬ: main bedroom, 20-25 feet away with ceiling/floor betweenĭ: spare bedroom, 15 feet away with ceiling/floor betweenĮ: basement rec room, 25-30 feet away with ceiling/floor betweenį: utility room, 30 feet away with ceiling/floor between and large metal appliances blocking But both the 2.4 GHz and 5 GHz cover well over all 3 floors. There's a VERY bright green LED which would be fine in a corporate environment for diagnosis at a distance but fortunately can be easily turned off for home use.Ĭoverage in both bands is excellent, though I have a small 1200 square foot home. Minor things for a one AP home installation. But the AP can be configured standalone as well with little loss of functionality - about the only things I noticed was fast roaming and airtime fairness settings, along with analytical data and a nice signal heat map. Probably my fault, I have some servers running on this host, including Apache, likely they're starting to interfere with each other. I did get the Omada controller to run (bonus, there's a Linux installer!) - the key was to address the controller by LAN IP address and not local address like 127.0.0.1 or "localhost". They're rated for 4 lbs and the AP is 1 lb, so it should be good. I ended up using 3M picture hanging Command strips so as not to damage the wall. I chose not to ceiling mount but I did wall mount. But the new AP will be much closer and should be stronger. I probably won't need it, but if I wanted something that would fit in the "Omada Controller" ecosystem I could put an EAP115 2x2 N300 there as that's all that's needed. Currently I have to use an ASUS RT-N10P as an access point to a 2.4 GHz device in the basement since my main AP is too weak, it's ~40 feet away with a floor in between. The furthest devices will be 20-25 feet away on the floor above and 20 feet away on the floor below.

I'll be mounting it 15 feet away from the heaviest wireless use area. The drawbacks of the controller software (not quite as mature as Ubiquiti's) don't really apply in my case since I'm planning on only one AP in a small home environment. It bucks the trend here and I'm sure I'll get some comments along the lines of "don't trust TP-Link" and "should have gotten the Ubiquti" but I'll see how it goes and post back. I see SmallNetBuilder has not reviewed the 245 but reviewed the 2x2 225 (with the same SoC) and they rate it #1 on their AP ranker: I thought about it and did my research - this was one of the best articles: They even use the same SoC, the Qualcomm Atheros QCA9563. But its specs are closer to the UAP-AC-PRO - 3x3 AC1750 MU-MIMO. Around here, the EAP245 is actually a little bit cheaper than the UAP-AC-LITE as of today.

The PRO seemed like overkill and is more expensive. The LR didn't seem exactly necessary, I only have a 1200 square foot house and the RT-N66U nearly covers it all. I was trying to decide between it and the UAP-AC-LR or the UAP-AC-PRO. It seemed natural to get a Ubiquiti UAP-AC-LITE as so many recommend here and on the Internet at large. My router is sorted - Ubiquiti EdgeRouter Lite.

Plus I'd like to experiment with enterprise-level APs, spending money solely on wireless components and performance rather than router components.

However I've got the itch to upgrade to ac, I have several ac devices now and even though my Internet is only 60 Mbps, it could help with LAN transfers. It's been a real trouper and still going strong. I'm using an old ASUS RT-N66U as an access point and have been for about 6 years now. So with Christmas cash I wanted to upgrade my wireless network to current standards.
