À la découverte de l’écosystème UniFi, l’équipement réseau des pros accessible au grand public http://dlvr.it/TKGH15 #UniFi #Réseau

My blog post documenting my attempts to get #Unifi #CCTV working on a #raspberrypi has just gone live. It's a bit of a read but I'm hoping it might help folks that are looking to do something similar given a lot of the online documentation and forums appear to be old and with out of date info.

Charging my Gameboy Advance with power over Ethernet. The future is now.

My aging #Ubiquiti Edgerouter-X is failing. So, I spent 3 hours yesterday trying to set up a new #Unifi Gateway Max without success. I'm returning it.

I decided to just get a #miniPC with dual 2.5Gbe and install #Opnsense on it. (This guy: https://a.co/d/431PbIV)

I'm hoping it arrives early because I'm not sure the Edgerouter will last until next month. I've also never used Opnsense, so this will be another grand experiment.

Maybe I'll install it in a VM on Proxmox for now so I can FAFO.

Heutige Baustelle mit gaaanz viel #unifi #netzwerk Das #nerdherz freuts

Hi Internet!

Are you like me, and have a big dumb contrived unifi network at home?

has the controller ever shit the bed on you, or have you ever lost your controller? I was running mine in docker on a syno array, which had btrfs issues and the partition 'crashed'. so no more controller.

so i took an aluminum bat to chatgpt for several hours yesterday in addition to a bunch of manual editing and came up with this: a unifi probe shellscript

Anfangs war ich ein Fan von UniFi, jetzt nach fast 6 Jahren geht's mir einfach nur noch auf die Nerven.
Gibt es Gegenmeinungen?

I finally got around to putting my #Ubiquiti #UniFi controller on a current #MongoDB release. Went from version 3.6 to 8.

Rather than go through the in-place database upgrade steps, I just did a new controller install and restored a backup of my config onto it.

The "official" instructions are quite outdated so I ended up following these steps. Worked like a charm. https://www.reddit.com/r/UNIFI/comments/1deaeoj/how_to_guide_installing_unifi_network_application/?rdt=36295

Just be sure to replace all occurrences of '7.0' with '8.0' if you want to be on the latest MongoDB.

Je cherche une Dream Machine Pro/SE, est-ce quelqu’un par ici aurait ça à un prix raisonnable ? Bonus non négligeable, l’appareil sera probablement pris en photo dans mes articles pour MacGeneration.

Je ne cherche plus, merci !

My #HomeLab has grown way beyond the clean and simple setup from 1.5 years ago. Time to optimize — but let’s be real, a HomeLab is never done.

Grrrrrr.

So I finally got unifi 9 up, and got the mongodb server upgraded from 3.2 to 8. This is a pile of garbage the UBNT should have automated and decided instead "meh".

They get a lot right, and a lot wrong and I wish there was another good self hosted single pane of glass option to genuinely compete.

So looking at my home networking, I've got three main options

1. Keep opnsense as the router, possibly even keep the switch but add a 2.5gb switch
2. Go crawling back to unifi (less likely, $$$)
3. Swap the core out with Microtik, including router and core switches

The third option is really interesting to me, but I've heard people talk about limitations that they've encountered with Microtik so I'm really curious how people feel about them and what those limitations were

#Networking #Homelab #MicroTik #Unifi #Opnsense

Well this is shocking.

tbh at the end of the day, i regret buying #unifi / #ubiquity hardware. Maybe their pro stuff is better? but the consumer grade was a bit of a let down.

Boo, on my way to bed I noticed it seems one of my #unifi APs died. I luckily have a spare, I could slap up on the roof and adopt and it's going again. Will have to have a look at it tomorrow and see if I can resuscitate it, or if I'm forced to upgrade to fancy wifi 7 gear.

Would rather not spend the money if I can avoid it, and hopefully it's not a sign that the other two aren't far behind?
