There was a problem filtering reviews right now. Please try again later.
Open Mesh as its name implies could allow you establish a network that was basically wireless even between many of its access points (a mesh network). This addresses the difficulty of establishing a network throughout an building or area where adding new wiring could prove difficult or more costly than you could afford. In our case since we were remodeling the building I had already designed the internal wiring so all points were I needed to establish an AP (access point) had the necessary wiring. So there was no need for the mesh capability of Open Mesh.
Even though I didn't need that feature Open Mesh provided, their system could work fairly well to meet our needs. Their system could fairly easily configure itself. Ubiquiti likewise could meet our needs. Both were priced about the same (at the time I was examining each system).
The main differences were: Ubiquiti was set up so you would manage and configure their devices using software running on your PC/laptop. You don't need the software running 24/7 if you used it mainly to configure the network. If you wanted to collect stats you would of course need to keep it running. Open Mesh on the other hand was managed via the Internet. It's management system/software was cloud based, residing on their servers, so no local pc/laptop/server or software was required.
Both allowed you to set up guest networks and to even have a guest portal. Both allowed you to set up multiple WiFi networks.
Bandwidth for each network could be managed (limits could be set for download and upload bandwidth).
What made Ubiquiti my choice: I could establish more WiFi networks (SSIDs) with Ubiquiti. Each could be useful as I needed to provide guest some 'basic bandwidth' but with various ministry groups I would provide a different WiFi with different bandwidth limitations and an unlimited one for the staff. It gave me more flexibility.
It should be noted that Ubiquiti is not as easy to set up as Open Mesh. My background is in networking and we have others in our church with IT background which helped.
On other thing that sold me on Ubiquiti was their were just about to come out with the new model (the one this review is one) which was its most powerful AP and they dropped the price. With all the other expenses in getting our newly remodeled building ready for use, this helped keep our cost even more reasonable.
I used the PoE+ (power over ethernet) feature of the AP's. When I set up the wired access point locations I had the electrician install power at all those locations because at that time I didn't know what products I would be using and in case any of the wire runs exceeded the max. distance. I purchased an HP Gigabit Switch that included PoE+ ports and they worked great. If an AP ever needed to be rebooted, now all I have to do is disconnect and reconnect the corresponding ethernet cable to the port on the switch. No need to get on a ladder to unplug the AP from a local AC outlet up in the ceiling.
The challenge for churches is to manage the "guest users" connecting to your network so that they don't overpower your network, bringing things to a standstill preventing the staff and ministry leaders from getting onto the network to do the necessary work needed. In our previous building we had two small home routers in our worship hall set up as AP's and both would be overwhelmed on Fridays (fellowship groups meeting) and Sundays as all the cellphones and tablets tried to connect. In many cases people's cellphone would be set up with WiFi always turned on whether they were actually using the connection or not. With these new AP's that allow you to specify bandwidth available (and the units hardware are designed to handle more connections) so we don't expect such problems. The congregation is just beginning to be aware of our new guest network so we'll see whether or not we have to add one or two more AP's to the existing two but at the price they are currently going for its a reasonable cost.
Note: the coverage is spherical. We are in a 3 story building (the 1st floor being the garage/storage) with two levels (2nd & 3rd floors) that include all our classrooms, conference rooms, worship hall and offices. We've place one AP on the west side of the 2nd floor in the middle of the floor (running north-south) and the other one on the east side of the 3rd floor in the middle of the floor (running north-south). We have excellent reception every where. We've set the AP's to automatically load balance the connections between them.
If you are looking for AP's that are highly configurable so you can set up multiple WiFi networks for different groups and you have some networking background the Ubiquiti product line could be the economical solution to meet your needs. If most of the locations you are considering putting an AP in are not wired (and adding wiring would be difficult) and networking background is limited, take a look at Open Mesh before deciding. They just might be the easier and more workable solution. Also remember one is managed locally while the other is cloud based.
I did a ton of research on every home audio video piece, wiring, etc. I wanted everything to NOT BE DEALER ONLY equipment. Instead of Control 4, I use Harmony. Instead of Comcast Alarm, I use Alarm.com and Qolsys, etc.
When it got time to do internet, I was talking to my low voltage guy and said I still needed to research WiFi equipment like I do everything else. He convinced me that his Araknis brand (Snap-On Dealer equipment) was so great. I told him that I like consumer or open equipment because they listen to more customers, there is more support, feature requests, online tutorials, etc. He swore how great it was, etc. Against my better judgement I took his advice.
I used their Araknis Networks® 500 Series Indoor Wireless Access Point. 3 at first, then added 2 more because coverage was so bad. I had nothing but internet issues non stop! I tried changing settings (Channel Setup to reduce interference, Power Levels, NO RSSI Option anywhere though, etc), checking for newer firmware, etc. The installer refused to acknowledge any issues I was having was from the APs. "He used them other places, and they have worked fantastic".
I finally couldnt stand it anymore. My harmony hubs would constantly disconnect, or look connected but need to be rebooted. Facetime outside the house 10' from the house would freeze up. Viewing Nest cams were extremly choppy. WiFi calling would never work. WiFi devices on my alarm system kept dropping out. I couldnt stand it.
So, I did what I knew I should have done from the beginning. RESEARCH!!!! Like I always do. Well, I came across the UAP-AC-PRO-US. After looking over specs, maturity of firmware, utilities, etc. I made the purchase. I replaced all the APs myself. The round style was nicer than a square AP trying to get lines right with all the angles on the ceiling. It had a useful LED the other didnt have when starting out, then I could easily turn off later.
Only hiccups along the way:
Setup was a breeze (except it wouldnt except my email, and found it had to be all lower case). Enable cloud access gave me OS error - had to simply install Java x64.
After setup, playing around with power level and channels, I got it mostly dialed in and gave it a shot.
HUGE issues resolved!!!!!!
1. iPhone on old network would show 5 bars, but download at .2MBPS. I found that it was still stuck on further AP and I constantly had to turn off wifi and re-turn on for it to jump on the right AP and get normal speeds. The wireless roaming works as it should with Ubiquiti!!!!
2. My harmony hubs now stay connected, the "Loading Data" on mobile app has been reduced from 5 seconds time to being instaneous. This was a nightmare. Sometimes you have a toddler meltdown, need Disney Jr, and then Wife tries to use the remote, doesnt work, and a 10 minute rebooting process and troubleshooting session follows. This happen so often I could never rely on the remote to work and thought I had bad Harmony products.
3. The kids can now facetime their grandparents in the backyard and my parents can actually see them now!
4. Nest cameras actually work, and dont constantly freeze with spinning loading icon when needing to check on babysitter/kids.
5. UnFi software - making it so I dont have to open 5 browsers tabs with 5 ip addresses, with 5 logins to view WiFi clients across the board, and naming mac addresses in each AP. Its - Yup, now Unified!
6. Mobile App - So nice to pull up the iPhone and check things/tweak things as needed.
7. Intel - I can easily see threshold of clients per AP, how much interference there is, easily get details.
8. Automated Firmware updates - no longer manually checking and updating
What a blessing this has been switching over to these APs. No more yelling from my wife to get the low voltage guy over - me calling him a hundred times, getting no shows, and being frustrated.
I have wifi internet that now works as it should. I've been very pleased so far, even though it's only been a couple days. I'll post an update if anything goes down hill.
CONS:
Only con was there used to be an option to select which AP a device should be on in the software. They removed that a long time ago, and even though lots of upvotes to bring it back, they havent.
It looks like you need to keep your computer on and UnFi software running to access it through cloud on your mobile device. I installed the controller as a service and it works well.

My cons are the Unifi install console, requiring Java to run the application seems like a big risk nowadays.
