There was a problem filtering reviews right now. Please try again later.
Alot more configurable settings, sort of between home user and corporate level settings.
I have also purchased the Access Points, a couple of 8 port PoE switches, and the cloud key, all super easy to use!
However, Unifi USG has died after 6 months from purchase. I emailed the Reseller twice about how to get the item replaced under warranty, but no answer, even after more than a week. I can not recommend purchasing anything from this reseller. Purchasing directly from Amazon is terrific, but don't from this reseller!
4 stars because it does a great job, but is a biatch to setup... Some things were awesome to configure, some things... very average..

A way of thinking about this is to consider the usual modem/router/switch combo your ISP gave you as being the same as an all-in-one Hi-Fi. This is the separates version, and darn good separates too.
This bit is just a router. It connects two networks, as routers do, being the internet (WAN) and all the stuff in your house/business (LAN). It only has one LAN output by default, and no WiFi, so, you'll need a modem of some form with an ethernet output on the WAN side to connect to the outside world, and assuming you have more than one device a switch of some form to allow them to connect to the internet on the LAN side, and then a wifi access point if you want to connect wirelessly. That means cost. But, you get what you pay for. This is a big step up from the consumer kit you'd normally see to business quality hardware and associated software. We're lucky and have fibre to the home, so the OpenReach GPON (sort of fibre modem) unit dumps 300Mb goodness into this, and it handles it effortlessly. Ours is matched to a Ubiquity switch, which in turn is matched to a controller (runs the software) and several PoE driven access points, so our house has seamless WiFi just like a properly setup office.
It's been subject to roughly monthly firmware and software updates, all of which happened without drama, and added useful features to it all, including easy IPv6 support. Other than rebooting following those updates it's been on the whole time.
A couple of warnings:
Read a bit and watch some videos before diving in, it's not for the technically faint of heart as it won't 'just work'. It's not hard to set up, but will be more trouble than a BT/Sky/ISP preconfigured one. If you deal with this sort of thing for a living, it's a walk in the park.
It can get hot, mounting vertically is recommended to use the vents effectively. (Ethernet ports go down) Just mind the dust, and don't cover it.
The similar looking 3 Edge Router is pretty much identical to this, cheaper, and easier to use without the controller software. The main difference is that in the controller software with this you get more green circles, and access to it from that control panel. Oh and it glows a cool blue when it's working. If that does not interest you, save a few quid and get the 3 Edge Router.
Just like Hi-Fi separates, once you start your wallet will weep as you feed your new addiction, but you'll love the improved everything.

The hardware is very nice and comes neatly packaged, almost Apple-like. Annoyingly it ships without a UK plug so you will have to source one separately. It does get a little warm and the LEDs are quite bright, but nothing too obnoxious. With a maximum power draw of 7w I’m very happy with its low power consumption.
You configure the USG through the Unifi controller software, in my case on the Cloud Key, and it does give you some good statistics. Perhaps my biggest bug bear is the DHCP service. For starters, DHCP is tagged as ‘beta’. Seriously? DHCP is as old as the hills, and very basic functionality for a device like this. The way you manage leases and reservations is also not very intuitive. I also struggled to adopt the USG out of the box, forcing me to do 2 factory resets.
I also find the lack of documentation on the USG functionality frustrating. This stuff should be built-in, or at least readily available on the website. Take the IDS/IPS functionality (also ‘beta’). It’s literally a toggle on/off with hardly any description and no detail in the documentation. If you’re wondering it appears to be using snort and suricata rules, amongst others. It just seems a bit half-baked to me.
Once you get used to the UI it’s a decent enough box, but for £100+ I was expecting a little bit more polish and a lot less beta.

Other routers do it much better. Only reason to buy this is to fill in the greyed out boxes in the Unifi controller software. Once the novelty has worn out after about 2 minutes, you’ll wonder why you bought this and went through all the hassle?!

I'm a huge fan of Ubiquiti's WiFi products and the Unifi controller software. Very reliable and feature-rich for an amazing price-point.
This USG? Not so good.
If you just want to connect your network to the Internet, it's an OK gateway device. It'll fill all the gaps in the Unifi software which require a USG, giving you pretty traffic graphs, etc. It'll do DHCP and DNS resolution just fine.
But it you want to do anything beyond that? You're out of luck.
I'd bought this to replace (or augment) a pfSense router I'd built. Ideally, I wanted it to work in a transparent mode, so pfSense would still do all the gateway/firewall duties, with the USG acting to fill out the Unifi interface.
But the USG cannot run nicely as a transparent device. There are hacks and tweaks, but all have downsides. It has extremely bare-bones services, and even things I consider basic (like reliable local DNS options with full control over how DNS names are generated for DHCP leases) are missing.
There's nothing really to recommend this over a pfSense gateway, unless you want the bare minimum.
I've since re-fitted the pfSense box, and I'll be putting my USG on Facebook Marketplace or something.

Dés qu'on souhaite faire de la sécurité avancée avec des fonctions spécifiques, une fiabilité à toute épreuve etc …
Mieux vaut se tourner vers des équipements type stormshield.

On ne présente plus les équipements Unifi de chez Ubiquiti Networks …
Ce routeur dispose de fonctionnalités de niveau professionnel à un tarif très attractif.
Attention cependant au nombre de USER et bande passante souhaitée …
Par exemple, quand on active les fonctions de filtrages (parefeu, DPI, VPN etc …),
la bande passante restante est moindre.
Il est préférable (non obligatoire) d'intégrer ou utiliser les autres maillons de la chaine Unifi pour gérer de manière globale son réseau et bénéficier de l'ensemble des fonctionnalités (notamment le wifi et les switch).
Très efficace et modulaire.
Au final la solution vous coutera entre 250 et 400 € pour un réseau local complet en Unifi.
La logique d'installation est pas évidente la 1ere fois.
L'ergonomie de l'UI et la gestion centralisée des équipements et du réseau rendent cette solution simple à l'usage ensuite et terriblement efficace.
Pour geek avertis et professionnels, je ne recommande pas pour les novices (sauf les motivés) :
- d'une part parce que les fonctions ne leur seront pas utiles,
- d'autre part pour la 1ere mise en route.
