AmpliFi AFI-P-HD HD Mesh Point

What's great about this product is that it does not require desk space, is easy to set up, and works with other routers (Linksys in my case), and not just with Amplifi products.

I purchased this device to help my dad with his home network. He currently has a very low-end D-Link router and several other issues that limit his current network. His home is all brick, it has a very unusual layout that includes a giant brick chimney running through the middle of the house, it has plaster walls, and he has a wireless camera system that absolutely destroys the 2.4 ghz band. I have some experience with Ubiquiti hardware in my house so I thought I would give this a try since the UniFi line performs so well for me. First, setup is a breeze and very comparable to consumer wifi gear. Unlike most consumer wifi gear, Ubiquiti (and Amplifi) update their products fairly regularly. For this reason I recommend updating the firmware as soon as you connect the device to your network. I think I clicked on the image of the mesh point in the app to get the menu and selected "check for updates". If not just play around...it is pretty intuitive. Second, move the mesh point around a lot. I tried 4-5 plugs in his house before I was completely satisfied with the results. Once I found the ideal plug, I received very little benefit from moving the antenna around on the base. Once everything was set up I was able to reach the limits of his internet service speed at the mesh point. The Amplifi did not solve the 2.4 ghz interference problem but I really did not expect it to since the mesh point was not really designed to work with D-Link crap. The situation is not ideal for a wireless network of any kind but I was very happy with the result and the ability to extend the network to the back part of the house. I did have a question during setup and used the chat feature on the Amplifi website. I received help immediately and my question was answered (there was no queue for help). Ultimately I would be better off running CAT6 and putting UniFi access points in his house, but this seems like it will work for now and improve his coverage in previously dead areas. I should have purchased the AmpliFi router as well to replace the D-Link but I will save that project for another day. Update: I tinkered with my D-Link router settings and am even more impressed with this Amplifi device now. Solved the interference problem almost completely by reducing the power on the 2.4 band to low and left the 5 ghz on high. The Amplifi was/is using 5 ghz as the backbone and rebroadcasts on both 2.4 and 5. The result is a very stable network (on both bands) in a part of the house that never had coverage in the past. The Amplifi has done a significantly better job of dealing with the camera interference than the D-Link ever did.

This AmlilFi Mesh Point has Fixed my WIFI black spot very good quality.

Ottimo prodotto, sotto tutti i punti di vista.

Me ha gustado la facilidad de instalación y configuración. Funciona a la perfección , con actualizaciones periódicas. Perfecto. El pero es el precio elevado.
