with this video I had everything connected and working in 5-10 minutes, thanks
I am glad we helped. :)
Thank you!!! I spent like 30 mins trying until I found your video and connected it in 5 mins!
You are welcome! I am glad that you found our video useful.
Thank you so so much, my pc won’t start so I’ve been trying to use my iPad to set up UniFi ap ac pro. Now l have all my devices connected properly, thanks again keep up the great work.
You are welcome!
Amazing video. thank you very much. I spend 20 minutes to figure out how to do it myself and with your video I did it in a few mintues.
I am glad my video helped you. 👍
Thank you very much for making this! This was the only way I could find out if doing standalone setup has the options I need (turning off the LED and using different SSIDs for different frequencies).
You’re welcome! Thank you for your comment!
Thanks a lot. The tip to go into account menu to set up standalone devices helped me to configure my access point.
Glad it helped
I have the UniFi AP AC Lite for ~ a year now and it *never* crashed, disconnected or slowed down :^)
Yes Unifi Ac lite although is the smallest of the series is really robust.
@@PoseidwnTech the only negative thing is that you can hear some coil whine while heavy load, but everything else is perfect :D
What are the speeds you are getting from the Lite?
A little hard to understand, but I used this guide to connect and it worked like a charm!
I am glad it worked fine for you as well.
Many thanks for the video, installed mine in no time.
You're welcome! Thank you for the comment!
It's very convenient to setup everything using only your mobile phone. Thanks!
You are welcome!
Really awesome video, everything worked from the start. Also great that you showed what happens when you configure on mobile app. thank you.:)
Glad that helped. :)
I notice there's no recognition of mandatory clearances for power and comms cabling.
Thank you so much for this video, really helped!
Glad that helped.
Can I connect this without scanning the qr code
You can connect without scanning the qrcode but you need to have an existing wlan in the same network.
@@PoseidwnTech what do u mean ?
1:40 LOL!!! You are a true man, Brother!
I am glad that we could help!
"No devices were found"
Tried installing it with my phone and it gave me the above error message. The LED color is blue. What can be wrong?
In case the led is blue it means that the device is adopted. Try to forget device from controller and then configure it as standalone device from your mobile.
Reset the device using the reset button
Nice and helpful intro to using phone app, thx
Glad you like it! Thank you
Thanks for the video! This is exactly what I will do next weekend. One question: Can you give the 2G SSID and the 5G SSIS the same name? Or should they better be different names?
You can use same or different ssid names per band. It’s a matter of configuration. Since 5G is faster but has shorter range I would suggest using same ssid names, so your devices can take advantage of 5G when are closer but stays connected to the 2g network when are farther.
Thank you very much!
So do you need a router that will output 800mbits or will the AC do that
AC lite can handle up to 800mbits.
Excellent demonstration. One question, if there is an existing wifi network, do you use the existing networks SSID and password in the setup of the AP AC Lite?
Normally yes. If for example the installation is a Home it is very convinient to have one SSID. Be careful though, except the SSID and the password and the authentication must be the same. For example WPA2 for the new and the existing installation. Personally in my installations i avoid to mix access points from different manufacturers. Keep in mind that if you use UniFi Cloud Key (Controller) you will receive alerts for "Rogue Point detected" for the non UniFi Access Points.
It appears connected but it doesn't find the device in the wifi networks on my cell phone or PC etc. How can I solve it?
This Vid is so helpful. But I have one question. I cannot connect it with the phone that I use to setup how can I fix it? Thank you
After you setup UAP as standalone device you should be able to connect to that via the Unifi network app in your mobile over wifi (not QR code). If solid led is blue in the UAP everything should be k.
i have unifi controller on my pc put i want install the controller on my mobile can u tell me whate is the stips please ?
Awesome video. this was very helpful
Glad that helped!
Ευχαριστούμε για το video! Ήταν πολύ χρήσιμο!
Great video is it possible to add another access point the same way and have 2 access point running?
Please check this video : th-cam.com/video/I0XH7whQk38/w-d-xo.html
do you have a cloud key or a controller before the installation ?
No. Neither cloud key nor controller. This is a tutorial on how to setup AC lite using only your mobile phone.
Can we setup 2 unifi ac lite from mobile app ? And a single SSID
Please check this video : th-cam.com/video/I0XH7whQk38/w-d-xo.html
Thanks u!!!i'm later to see but i really enjoy this video for sharing techno help my config unifi with mobile phone.
You are welcome!
Glad it helped
thank you it's helpful
You're welcome!
Thank you very much. Question: On minute 3:30 you say something I don't understand about not needing the PoE injector. Could you please tell me what you said there?
He said if you have a POE switch, you don't need to use a POE injector
Thanks a Lot
You're welcome!
Keep up the good work! Looking forward to more videos!
Thank you. More unifi videos are coming.
Nice video sir..i am from india and i used unifi AP..I have unifi acount and Unifi app to my mobile..And my office used netgear switch and unifi AP.. i have 4 AP and 1 netgear sw..so netgear sw connected to my building jio subscriber and then my 4 AP is connected to netgear sw..all setup is done..so how to configure the AP...Any licence is need to configure..please help me sir..i am waiting for reply sir
The switch you use should not affect the way you configure the APs. You should be able to find and configure APs through controller or unifi mobile app.
@@PoseidwnTech ok thanks sir
Can you connect more than one AP to the same network on the mobile app?
Yes you can configure multiple AP to the same networkk on the mobile app.
@@PoseidwnTech Can I ask you a question please? If I have already have a router, but I have a large home, can I use this AP Lite to extend the range of my wifi?
I use a ethernet CABLE to extend LAN connection for AP to a part of the house far away from the normal router. Will same SSID = same network?
Hi there!
Is it possible to setup an ppoe connection?
You cannot only in UniFi Routers.
Thanks for the video, it was very helpful.
You're welcome!
Thanks, this worked perfect! Question, if I want to add another ac lite, can you do the same thing with the app and they will work in tandem or do i have to start configuring things?
Did you figure this out?
Kya ye device without lan wire configuer ho sakte hai
I am not sure that i understand your question. This is a wired Access Point so you have to connect it with a utp cable in order to work.
Thanks for this, worked perfectly to set up cheers!
You're welcome!
Thanks for the video! I have only one question, the app asks me for a login and a password when he finds the device, is it normal ?
Yes this is normal. Default password and username is “ubnt”.
For me, the app also asks me to login. But the username and pwd like you suggest, is not working.
After entering “ubnt” as username and pwd, problem with logging in.
The accesspoint is working. That’s not the problem. But can not change stuff because i can not login.
Maybe somebody has an idea?
@@ronycrijns6015 i have the exact same problem here. Any thoughts Poseidwn?
So this ac lite cannot work without being hard wired to your router?
If you have only one access point then yes it has to be wired!
Hi I connected ap lan directly to service provider modem lan port ,I only getting internet in one device,and other devices connected to ap says no internet connection.some help here please do I need a extra switch ?
The lan port of the Access Point's POE Adapter must be plugged in a switch or a Router. If you connect to the Modem's port your PC will you have Internet?
Thank you. Very helpful.
You're welcome!
Tried to configure a NanoHD as a standalone with an iphone 12 and an old ipad same issue unable to join network. No option to configure as stand alone. It got a dhcp address from my firewall done the factory reset many times and everytime same error can't join network. Has a solid white light. I've got no wifi network to join....this will be the wifi network. Any ideas?
***FIXED***
My switch kept the old trunk port config in addition to the access port I set it up as for the AP. Once I removed the trunk config it took about 5 mins to setup. Slightly different options in the latest version of the app for setup like no standalone setup option. Thanks for this guide!
Thanks for the feedback!
thanks for your help!
You are welcome!
Thank you for this video.
You're welcome!
What do I do when I don’t want a password
No devices were found and LED color white ? Please help
Have you enabled Bluetooth?
I’m not able to join the network, my UniFi AP AC Lite is not allowing me to join the network
Have you checked the connection between the Access Point and the Router? For example if you connect your laptop with the ethernet cable that you used to connect the Access Point will you have internet?
what do i do when i am not able to configure the device?
Try to reset device and start again.
Awesome video. Thank :)
Glad you liked it! Thank you for your comment!
If you install the AP in this way, can you not create a guest network?
At 2.20mins what do you connect the POE to and is that connecting wirelessly to your modem?
The POE port goes to the Access Point and the Lan Port goes to your switch or router.
όταν συνδεθούν τα καλώδια δικτύου και PoOE μετά λογικά πρέπει να εκπέμπει δίκτυο η συσκευή? δεν την εμφανίζει καν σε μένα ...
Αν δεν το ρυθμίσεις με τον UniFi Controller δε θα εκπέμπει κάποιο δίκτυο. Οπότε αν είναι το μοναδικό Access Point στο χώρο τότε από το κινητό σου άνοιξε την εφαρμογή UniFi Network και πάτα το + πάνω δεξιά. Θα αρχίσει να ξάχνει και δε θα βρει τίποτα, οπότε θα σου βγάλει την επιλογή "Connect to AP Manually". Τέλος θα πρέπει να σκανάρεις το QR Code που βρίσκεται στο πίσω μέρος της συσκευής (AP) και μετά να το ρυθμίσεις.
Είναι καλό για streaming αυτό η το Pro μοντέλο?
Εξαρτάται streaming για πόσους χρήστες ταυτόχρονα; Αν είναι για οικιακή χρήση είναι μια χαρά.
Why you don’t set password on username 2G
Are you using a power line adaptor to extend from your modem/router? So many videos show the AP being connected in the same space as the modem/router rather than in another space far from the hub. Help
This is a POE injector and it is used in order to give power in the UniFi Access Point. If you have a POE switch, you don't need a POE injector!
Does anyone know if its good or bad with the yellow bar being short or long @8:25
The yellow bar shows the utilization of each channel in %. So if the yellow bar is full means that this channel is used by many Access Points and you should not use it.
My app said I need a unifi gateway or somethin
Hello sir Seth Taylor, I just want to ask if this kind of configuration is limited ? like I want to set a time limiter for connection of the client ? can I configure here ? or I need a controller ?
Standalone procedure is only for basic configuration. For more advanced settings you will need UniFi Controller or a UniFi Cloud Key.
Καλησπέρα είναι mesh technology η συνδέεται μόνο σαν access point?
To AC lite δεν είναι Mesh.
Καλησπερα! πως μπορω να βαλω και ενα Guest diktyo ?
Για την προσθήκη guest δικτύου θα χρειαστείτε τον unifi controller(είτε σε cloud key είτε το software μόνο). Δεν γίνεται από την εφαρμογή μόνο σαν stand-alone device.
Ευχαριστώ πολύ.
Να είστε καλά! Ευχαριστούμε για το σχόλιο!
does it have parental control from mobile app. I can time schedule and disconnect internet.
Hi, without a cxontroller, can I setup 2 or 3 stand alone APs just for extending coverge? but to have proper roaming between APs. I will run network to each AP, so not really looking for mesh, but rather 3 APs connected on same network, same SSID and proper roaming. THanks.
In our opinion it is better to download and use UniFi Network Application for Mac OS or Windows. You will open it and create a site for this installation in order to have all your Access Points there.
How do you set up 3 u6 lites working as a mesh please? Thank you!
In order to configure AP AC LIte 6 as mesh you need a unifi controller. This cannot be done via the application.
I had bad experience that the WiFi got disconnected in next room or downstairs.
There are several reason that may affect WiFi experience. In most of the cases the building walls and interference can cause poor experience. Please also have in mind that in case you need stronger signal strength you may use Unifi AP AC LR.
Thanks, having problem with my controller and was able to reset one of my WAPs with the app. Is there a way in the app to add more SSIDs? I do not see it.
No. When configuring an AP as standalone you can have one SSID for 2.4Ghz and one for 5Ghz.
@@PoseidwnTech Thank you.
What should I do if the AP isn’t identified via QR code or when I entered it manually? Thank you in advance
Reset device and try again.
Poseidwn Tech I have tried that as well and it’s still hasn’t worked. Any other solutions?
Every time I try to connect to the access point the Wi-Fi kicks me off.
For every access point in my house
What it's your WiFi settings? With what devices do you have problem? Only mobile devices or also laptop?
Hello, how can I change the ip address from the mobile application? Thank you...
I can't find the 'standalone device section' in the account tab! Everything else looks the same but it looks like it's been removed from the app
Please watch the updated version of this tutorial here : th-cam.com/video/I0XH7whQk38/w-d-xo.html
I have followed your video and got to the stage of taking a picture manually of the QR code on back of device, but it says its unable to connect to the network and remains solid white in colour, what could be wrong?
When scanning QR code in the back of the AP make sure you are not connected to the WiFi and you are under 4G
@@PoseidwnTech thank you for your reply, I have just tried this and it is saying the same thing that it is unable to connect?
Hello . I need some help . I setup the Unifi WiFi setup at home more then a year ago using the Unifi controller . I had one AP Pro , one USG and the Unifi switch . Everything works perfectly till now . Now I want to add an extra AP Pro ACESS point . The problem is I forgot my Unifi password . I’m unable to add the new Unifi AP AC pro . Is there a way to fix this issue ? If I add the new AP Pro using the mobile App , will it get added to my existing account based on the same Wi-Fi network ? What’s the best way to resolve my issue ? Thanks in advance
In my opinion the best way is to reset all devices to factory default settings and reprogram them.
Poseidwn Tech Thank you . I did factory reset all my devices & setup them up again .
@@RajanKannan11 👍
My favorite part was when my iPhone 6 Plus said 'This application requires iOS 14.0 or later.". Meanwhile, my iPhone 6 Plus can only update to iOS 12.5.5 and no further. Awesome.

@@PoseidwnTech χμ δεν χάνει σήμα; έχω βάλει 3 Tp link wa901nd και δεν ειναι καθόλου σταθερά *σαν repeater αλυσίδα ομως) αυτά δουλέυουν σαν repeater ή access point? θα πρότεινες το lite ή το LR.
Ευχαρισώ για την βοήθεια
What does an access point do?
Does not correspond now
We will release a new one soon!
Γεια σου ρε μεγάλε καλή δουλειά έκανες
😀
This did not work. The app could not find it and the QR code was useless as it did nothing but try to put that number into Notes or do a web search. Useless.
I'm having trouble also. Firstly the app with that name I can't seem to find. Did you get it sorted since?
I am stuck with very bad wifi since I went up starlink as their router is useless for range
No mention of guest networks and VLAN trunks :(
We will make a video about VLANs!
I like the look of these, but I'm really not enjoying this push to cloud controlled network hardware. Unifi, Meraki, etc.
I miss the old web based configuration of each device
To be honest we like the Centralized management. The Web based configuration in each device is nice when you have 1 or 2 devices but it will be a nightmare in a bigger installation with many devices.
Are you Greek?
Yes!

No speedtest?? LAME
Can you see how many mb a device is using and what applications it is using with a standalone setup ?
In order to have such level of details you need unifi controller.
Hello, how do I change the ip address from the mobile application?
