The pings on the speedtest were terrible. I would advise a test on dsl reports and checking the buffer bloat. Thanks for sharing these tests!

[@ethernetblueprint]

Yeah. I wasn’t impressed. Kinda bummed actually.

[@amanrao]

Fyi: Run iperf3 with "-R" for upload test

[@ElWargo]

What speed is without mash connectly to wifi directly to Express connedted to the switch with ethernet cable?

[@ethernetblueprint]

You may need to rephrase that. Not sure I understand what you’re asking there.

[@ronm6585]

Thanks for sharing. It seemed to be ok but not great.

[@ethernetblueprint]

I tend to agree. Room for improvement

[@alonzosmith6189]

Nice, appears to be good for apartments or a small house. Thinking about getting for my sons, and sister but then I have to manage their network 😢😢

[@ethernetblueprint]

I agree. Would be good for that space for sure.

[@giver666]

Super Test 👍

[@ethernetblueprint]

Thank you 👍

Wait… you got from almost 1 Gb/s at the beginning (direct connection, real speed), speeds around 200 Mb/s through WiFi and then below 100 and you said it is good? It’s nice looking plastic box, but as it’s main function - providing proper level of speed, it looks like crap for this moment…

[@ethernetblueprint]

Everyone’s needs are different. And yes you sacrifice some speed.

These unifi units look like they suck compared to other mesh units from Asus or TPlink.

[@ethernetblueprint]

From a performance standpoint, No. From a VLAN, Features Standpoint, I think they are better.
