I'm in for one. Got two of the injectors as those have been oos for a while. Adding this to a nanohd and a AC lite. We'll see how well it works

Hum … so tempting. I have 1 LR AP that I got 3-4 months ago and still have 1 spot with spotty reception. I can put one of these in the basement (not as close to spotty area, but would solve my issue) but not sure about adding another AP to system since never done before. Thanks OP as now I've got a decision to make.
If you have a Unifi controller (hardware like a cloud key or UDM/UDM Pro or just running the software on a PC) it's pretty much as easy as plugging it into the network and adopting it. It will get all of the SSIDs by default and start handling handoff with the other AP.

The lite versions are the better deal. Getting this one is useless where it has a 1gb port and isnt wifi 6e.

New firmware released this week. Maybe that will fix it?
Yeah I saw the update. They asked me to try beta too. No fix as of yet.

No Lan out on these like the AC Pro, FYI. I didn't check before purchasing, just assumed, and it threw me for a loop. A bit disappointed

I have this:
https://www.amazon.com/TP-Link-EA...617&sr=8-3

Works for my first floor with my modem on the 2nd floor. My basement, however, gets very weak WiFi using this TP Link access point. I'm contemplating drilling a hole and fishing another access point down to the basement but that's going to be quite annoying to do.

Would buying the ubiquiti AP increase the range of the access point more effectively than the TP Link to where I can get a stronger connection in my basement?

Dang I didn't realize the U6-MESH was released. It's OOS now, seems like it went up for sale 3 days ago. I've been waiting on that to pick up two of them.

It will let you extend the range of your wifi, but it's going to be a bit more difficult to manage if you don't already have Ubiquiti equipment. If you're okay with having to use separate software (or running a controller on a pi or something) to manage this piece of equipment then they are very good kit.

Does anyone know if Ubiquiti offers a "6E" Access Point at this time?
Not yet but in the works.

prb would go with eth over powerline av2000 spec. Should be plenty of speed for your wifi needs.

There is no guarantee that it will. You can try the LR version for longer distance.

The Omadas are basically the TP-Link version of Ubiquiti's UniFi line. We've deployed UniFi at work countless times and I have that exact Omada AP since I wanted to test drive TP-Link's version because they generally make decent value stuff.
Keep in mind these are all somewhat directional APs and aren't meant to blast wireless all over. They're meant to work as a system. Either get another Omada or find better placement for the one you have. That EAP225v3 is about as strong as an AP-AC-Pro IMO. Certainly strong enough for general coverage.
There's little point in mixing a UniFi AP with an Omada one. Pick an ecosystem and stick with the model offerings. Both are good. Omadas are maybe a bit more flexible but I needed to reboot mine a few times more a year than most of our UniFis (if on a stable controller release).... Which was almost never.
Also, Ubiquiti has more hardware offerings within their controller but Omada is more recent so that may change eventually.
