    RippinDragon9000 got a reaction from ygohome in Ubiquiti Unifi AC Wireless Enterprise Access Point   
    I have had 5 of the Unifi UAP-LR (long range, non-AC) units installed in a large fitness facility for over 8 months now. I regularly have over 75 clients connected at any given time (across all 5 units), and once had over 250 clients during a special event. They are always rock solid.
     
    I am running the controller software on a Linux server and I feel it has a pretty good web interface. I will say that the controller software is required for setting up the Unifi APs, they are not plug-and-play. You can shut down the controller server after configuring them however, assuming you are not using the guest portal feature.
     
    So far my only major issue has been with the guest portal feature. While it seems very nice to have built into the AP controller, I have found it completely unreliable, to the point where I no longer try using it. Of course, you wouldn't need the portal if you are using these APs at home.
     
    While I do not have any of the 802.11ac units, but do not have any reason to believe they are not as good as the 802.11n models.
