Ubiquiti Edge Router X vs Ubiquiti EdgeRouter X

Hey, what's going on everybody? So today I'm going to show you how to set up a Ubiquiti EdgeRouter X from scratch for use with your home network. So f...

Were I starting over now I would probably go TP-Link for everything except my router. My router would be OpnSense on hardware I purchased. That being said, my EdgeRouter X has done a fine job for me and since I already had on AP AC Lite I just added another and repositioned the original one as it works fine other than a few spots in the house.

I'm using a Ubiquiti Edge Router X w/ Smart QoS and it's a plug 'n play solution if you don't want to deal with a more of a technical fix.

They just need, you know, a lot of our small businesses are just a couple few computers. This is way better than the crap that you get from the cable ...

So, due to Ubiquiti's lack of a suitable offering in the range I'm willing to spend, I buy the ER-4. Overall, this thing is great - I've never used an EdgeMAX product, but I setup UNMS and I'm happy with it. Overall, it just works - a great device. Setup was a breeze

It was not much larger than a deck of cards. I'll spare you the details of my setup process, but here are a few key points: - I agree with the other reviews: this is not targeted at your typical consumer. It's not plug-and-play or idiot proof. There is a lot of power in this tiny box

The "wizards" don't reflect current configuration, and they all have the same UI (and silently ignore things they don't want to pay attention to, so you'll think you've set things up when you, in fact, haven't). Also, the wizards do only very minimal setup---you have to drop down into the utterly non-intuitive CLI to do anything useful. The router is lightning fast, though. Has no problem handling GBit fiber

In the end, I guess it is in fact a router...and it does in fact support pretty high throughput for its $$

1 ??? April 1 observation, of ER-4, using firmware version 1.10.9: This router performs well, as an IPSec VPN endpoint. But it goes into never never land if the power goes out and back on

Okay, looks good. Let's plug in our UAP and it should power up just fine at this point since I'm using 24 volt passive. There we go, it's flashing yel...

Let's see, firewall slash NAT. So if you need to do port forwarding and such, different firewall policies, NAT, NAT groups, this is where you do it, s...
