Centurylink gigabit fiber is great for $65/month with no price increases, but hardware offloading is a must with pppoe.
The value proposition does seem better if you're all in with their Protect and Access products, so I'm probably not the target customer for UDM…
Should I upgrade to a TP link router to go with them or going with the Ubiquiti ER-4 you think?
I personally have a large IoT presence(My network typically has 150+ concurrent devices), Camera presence (8x POE, 2x WIFI), etc, and gigabit internet.
I wanted IDS/IDP at gigabit speeds, and the ability to VLAN and Firewall devices within my network from each other.
If you're not into networking, just get a mesh device setup. Its fine.
If you're into networking, but no a hardcore networking guy, UniFi is excellent.
If you're a networking pro, get some used cisco gear and run pfsense or whatever, you won't be happy with UniFI.
I'm a software guy, and not a networking guy, so I run UniFi. Its not for everyone.
Is the USG usable for a decent multi-vlan network?
I read how it couldn't do static DHCP allocation in a decent way for a large number of devices without hacks and getting wiped at reprovision.
Rest of my network is Unifi. Would be good if I can pop in USG and forget it.

I have 3 vlans with fewer than 30 devices and the intro level ubiquity stuff is fine. It seems like if you have enough money to substantially beat that, buying a more expensive router wouldn't be a big deal.

If we have 50 clients having static DHCP IPs, you have to be able to take them from router to router and reboot to provision etc.

Personally if the question starts with "we have 50 clients" I wouldn't look at a <$200 router designed for prosumer home use.

With USG is it easy to specify 200 static IPs? That was the question.
