There are still far more people below gigabit speeds than there are people hitting their gig. As more fiber is deployed that may change, but it's still a very functional device regardless.
The cost of 2.5G chipsets is so low it really shouldn't matter especially for a 'premium' product like this.

With that logic why does it even have a gigabit uplink, after all three are still people out there that are not "hitting their 100Mbit/s" yet?
Weird that the ethernet ports are only 1GbE, that discounts everyone with a >1Gbit internet connection
This is my biggest knock against Ubiquiti at the moment. They have no real solutions in the 2.5GbE/10GbE market.

They also have multi-Gbps switches up to 25Gbps SFP28:
What does this product do? Wanted to purchase, but not sure what the purpose is.
It's an entry-level WiFi router with UniFi's Network software, which provides the ability to buy more UniFi gear (switches and additional APs) if you have a really big house and/or wish to connect more than 1 device over ethernet. Unlike its bigger siblings, the Dream Router and the Dream Machine, it lacks additional built-in ethernet ports (i.e. you'd need to buy a switch) and can't host security cameras (the UniFi Protect product line).
Another confused product from UniFi. Is it targeting home users or businesses? It looks like businesses from their web page yet feels very much like a better fit for home. It only runs UniFi Network, so you have to buy more things, that also run UniFi Network, to get into any of their other products like Protect. I like their stuff but lately a lot of their stuff feels just confused to me, like they don't know what t…
I bought into their unifi ecosystem years ago. Separate devices, prosumer pricing, features and quality, single pane of glass. ... And I haven't upgraded anything since. Their new products are totally undirected, they aren't making items that are obvious and needed. Their software is falling behind and they just don't care. Case in point: the usg pro 4 is years old but they havent released an updated affordable just-…
Isn't the UniFi Gateway Lite[1] just that?

People always raise Wireguard as the end-all of VPN and yet its 2023 and there's virtually no way to deploy it in a business context. InTune doesn't even list it as a supported VPN, and everything I see to deploy it suggests some kind of hack to bypass UAC for one specific app because the end-user software requires Admin permissions to startup and hook. When we use L2TP with UDM Pro we get ~0.1Mbps across the wire fr…
Isn't it normal that changing the destination of all of a system's network traffic would require admin permissions? Why does that make you think it's a hack?
Most businesses never give their users admin permissions because it's a security can-of-worms, so for Unifi to push Wireguard for business doesn't make much sense. Happy for someone to point me at a turnkey Wireguard solution that just-works with InTune.

Unifi AP for wifi, Unifi switches, Unifi security gateway of some kind, Unifi point to point for terrestrial wireless to share with another set of Unifi gear in a barn/shed/whatever down the road. All managed by UNMS.
OK, as an engineer with decades of experience, I give up. What is "Unify AP for WiFi"?

It's completely reasonable that it requires admin permissions, but what I'm saying is that the other protocols (i.e. L2TP) that are built into macOS/Windows and mobile devices are integrated in such a way that they do not.

The UDM-SE I have has a 10Gbps and 2.5Gbps WAN ports: https://store.ui.com/us/en/pro/category/all-unifi-cloud-gate... They also have multi-Gbps switches up to 25Gbps SFP28: https://store.ui.com/us/en?category=all-switching
This is effectively a Dream Router minus any other app support and the switch. For a typical home user who doesn't want/need Protect this seems decent, but I think the $50 upcharge for the UDR is absolutely worth it. That said, the UDR is heavily limited in running Protect. I started hitting occasional problems running Network and Protect together when I hit 4 cameras.
