UBIQUITI Networks Unifi Security Gateway Router

[biob]

Hi,

ive been looking at the unifi security gateway. Looks a good bit of kit and seems to offer quite a bit for your money. I especially like the ability to segment my network, something which my current router doesn’t offer with its out the box firmware.

have any of you had experience with this hardware? What are your views on this?

When I was looking to buy a new router from Ubiquiti, I looked at the Unifi Router and the EdgeMax Router. I went with the EdgeMax Pro https://www.ubnt.com/edgemax/edgerouter-pro/

The Unifi Router is a bit more friendly for Home / Small Business users (Point and click user interface). The EdgeMax routers do give you the GUI option but you also have access to cisco like command line interface. I do know that you can upgrade to 8GB of RAM for the EdgeMax Pro.

Thanks for the response.

Have gone the EdgeRouter direction. Will give me nice little project. Haven’t configured network gear via CLI for the best part of a decade.
