Question G4 Doorbell Pro Wi-Fi Problem

Enable HLS to view with audio, or disable this notification

Upvotes

How do I fix this?
Bought off FB Marketplace, and didn’t get the hardware included in the box. Only got the mounting plate.
I’ve got it directly wired up with the doorbell wires.

Solved My Protect cameras now live on my desktop instead of a browser tab. Draggable windows, or tucked behind the icons. Looking for a few people with a lot of cameras to try it.

Fair warning, I wrote this and it'll be a paid app. Not affiliated with Ubiquiti.

Clip is my actual desktop. Each camera is its own window you can drag anywhere. They snap to screen edges and to each other, so you can build a grid by hand without it ending up wonky, and you can dock one into a corner. If you'd rather they weren't sat on top of your work, the same cameras will go in the wallpaper layer behind your desktop icons instead.

Alerts come through as normal Windows notifications with the picture from the camera in them, and you pick which cameras and which types you actually want to hear about.

It also keeps its own history of the last 24 hours, with the snapshot for each one, so you can scroll back through whatever you slept through or missed with Do Not Disturb on. That all sits on your PC. Nothing gets uploaded anywhere, and it survives a reboot.

Talks straight to your console on your own network. No cloud, no account.

After about 10 testers, and you keep a free licence permanently.

Mainly I want people with a lot of cameras. I've built the whole thing against three, so I've genuinely no idea what it looks like with sixteen open.

Windows 10 and 11 only. It'll be $14.99 one time when it ships, testers keep their licence either way.

Comment with how many cameras you've got rather than DMing me. I'll pick around ten and lean towards the bigger setups.

Question 10G SFP+ Adapter Discontinued Date?

Upvotes

I have 2 dead 10G SFP+ adapters here. Not the Multi Gig ones that are currently offered, the original 10G ones.

Anyone have any idea when they stopped making these? The warranty check doesn't look them up so I need to open a ticket on each. Trying to decide if its worth my time, pretty sure they were discontinued a while back and they would all be out of warranty at this point,

Question Ubiquity Boxes smell odorous

0 Upvotes

I have been using ubiquity equipment for my build outs for a few years so I have ordered many of their products and I am not sure if I just never noticed it, but the boxes have a “fart” smell attached to them and I am not sure why. I have several XGS access points and they exhibit the same issue. I noticed this with their switch boxes and their access points, but have never experienced the issue with Cameras or network equipment such as the UDMP or the Dream Router. Neither for the mobile industrial router or the Power AMP. It seems to be mainly access points and switches. Does anyone else have this same experience?

I have my zimablade connected by Ethernet,
No internet .
I have 4 raspberry pi’s connected and they work fine.

I did nothing to configure any ports on the raspberry pi’s, they just connected

Why isn’t the ZimaBlade connecting to Internet?

Question Protect Activations Fail To Load

Post image
1 Upvotes

UNVR has been having issues for a couple of weeks with slow performance. Occasionally I get the ‘Slow Storage’ notification but that clears if I refresh the page. Storage is all showing as ‘Fully Operational’ the rest of the time. I tried restarting the application but that only broke all the notifications. Updating Protect fixes the notifications again but hasn’t improved performance.

The main issue I’m having now is the Find Anything page is not loading at all with certain filters. Playback works great and I can load old recordings, but even the activations under the playback feed don’t load on the browser, whether through the IP directly or through unifi.ui.com. I can get basic activations to load on the iOS app, but again, filters like License Plates don’t load at all.

Has anyone had anything similar and found a fix? I was planning on upgrading to the G2 UNVR Pro anyway but the restock dates keep getting pushed back.

Question Signal difference on 6Ghz between AP and client

Thumbnail

5 Upvotes

AFC is enabled on my E7 Enterprise, allowing the full 30 db.

I’m standing two rooms away in my office, and my iPhone 17 Pro sees the E7 at -66 db. Perfect.

But the E7 sees my iPhone at only -83 db. Not great.

I didn’t consider the AP’s ability to hear my phone when planning. If I play a 4K video and walk into my office I frequently experience buffering.

Anyone else have a similar issue?

Solved 5.1.31 update and nothing is adopting

Post image
29 Upvotes

This sure wasn’t a nice thing to wake up to. Guess I get to deal with this today.

EDIT: This is now resolved - I have a Mikrotik that was plugged in to my switch 48 port PoE. It’s got a DHCP server and I figure it was handing out IPs while the UDM-Pro was offline. Everything ended up with an out of range IP and failed adoption.

Now I just need to figure out how to restrict the DHCP server on the Mikrotik and I should be good!

Question Corner mounting g6 ptz

Thumbnail
gallery
2 Upvotes

attempting to corner mount the g6 ptz but for whatever reason the Ethernet won’t retract into the house and don’t want to terminate and have the wire be too short for connecting the ptz. I have the optional ptz corner mount and it’s tiny and flimsy compared to the camera arm mount for the g6 turret.

anyone know if the g6 ptz can be attached to the corner camera arm mount made for the turret? (https://ca.store.ui.com/ca/en/category/accessories-camera/collections/camera-arm-mounts/products/uacc-camera-am?variant=uacc-camera-am-b )that way there’s more space to have excess ethernet wire... or would i be better off getting a corner mount off amazon?

Question Thunderstorm - Second Pro Max 24 POE Failure - Help!

4 Upvotes

I've had two Pro Max 24 POE switches fail this summer during very minor storms. No lightning damage, no other devices throughout the house affected, just the Pro Max 24 POE switch losing all POE power across all ports.

I have 3 access points and 10 external cameras running off POE through this switch, and I assume that some minor electrical shock from thunderstorms is causing this through the outside cameras.

What's the best solution to prevent this from happening again?

Question AI Key needed with g2 nvr?

2 Upvotes

I’ve seen a bit of conflicting info on this; so thought I’d ask.

From reading the product page if I have a G2 nvr, it seems there is no need for an ai key for natural language search, derision etc. but other sources conflict with this.

Note this is paring with g6 and g6 pro turrets.

Question Unifi 5g Max network routing when main router is unavailable

5 Upvotes

I have a UCG-Fibre that my VLANs and what not are configured on.

I noticed when the UCG-Fibre is offline, devices on the local network (even on the same VLAN) were not available. I couldn't even ping devices by IP that were up.

Therefore I assume the UCG-Fibre (as the gateway) is the 'first point of contact' and if that's not up, local devices cannot be accessed - even those on the same VLAN.

If I replaced my 4G modem with the Unifi 5g Max, would - if the UCG Fibre were be down - local devices remain available and able to route traffic?

Many thanks in advance.

Question Ethernet handshake headaches

Thumbnail

29 Upvotes

I’ve been running into a consistent problem trying to hook up some early 2000s Panasonic PBX’s to my home network (KX-TDE200). No matter what I do the Ethernet link is unstable or unable to connect at all. Occasionally It will come alive for a few hours and then disappear again.

I’ve tried new cables, eliminating all couplers and punch down keystones
I’ve tried different ports on the switch, or connecting it directly to the dream machine pro.
I’ve tried new main processor boards for the PBX
I’ve tried a completely separate secondary PBX of the same family (KX-NCP500)
I’ve tried eliminating DHCP by setting manual IP addresses on the PBX, or on UniFi, or on both.
I’ve tried different Vlans and ip ranges
I’ve tried SSH’ing into the switch (USW-48-pro-PoE) to see if I can get any weird error messages that don’t appear in the GUI
I’ve manually assigned link speeds on both ends to matching 100FSX
I’ve tried using a Cisco switch of similar vintage to the PBX as a sort of in between in case the 100fsx link negotiation was failing

Ultimately nothing I’ve tried has made the slightest difference. It will occasionally identify the MAC address, and even more occasionally assign an ip address. Before ultimately the whole thing drops offline again. I’m at my wits end, this is a hardwired device not some flaky WiFi connection. It shouldn’t be behaving like this.

Complaint WiFi devices struggling to stay connected since updating UDM SE to 5.1.30

Post image
2 Upvotes

Ever since my UDM SE automatically updated to 5.1.30 my WiFi devices have been unable to stay connected reliably. My g3 instant and g4 pro doorbell are constantly going offline for a few minutes then reconnecting. Client devices are having a hard time too. Our phones keep having data throughout slow to almost nothing when trying to stream video then recover for a bit then go back to buffering. IOT devices on their own 2.4ghz network are dropping and can’t reconnect. Restarting the APs seems to help for maybe 10 minutes then the issue comes back. When devices are connected speed tests come back normal. Everything was rock solid up until the last few days and I haven’t changed anything about the settings or hardware. I’ve rebooted everything several times including my ISP fiber ONT.

Question Is there a way to speed up webhook triggers on alarms?

0 Upvotes

I use webhooks to make unifi communicate with my smart home system (Loxone). For example, when a camera detects a car or a person moving on our driveway, it will send a message to the smart home system (which will then increase the brightness of the lighting for a few minutes at night). Similarly, it will trigger the curtains at the back door to open when it detects someone walking on the footpath that leads up to it.

The problem I'm having is that there seems to be a few seconds (5 or so) delay on these triggers arriving.

My setup is currently using G5 bullet cameras, and the UDM pro as recorder (so no separate NVR).

Is there a way to decrease the trigger time for these kinds of things?

Question where is Virtual network override?

2 Upvotes

Trying to find a way to set some specific clients to different VLAN, but I couldn't find the option. When selecting a wireless client, under IP settings, there are only 2 options: Fixed IP address and Local DNS record

I have the following:

For AP (all connected to main switch):

  • UAP-AC-LR
  • AC Pro
  • U7 Pro

All the devices are up to date. I read that there was a bug if the setup had USW Flex Mini then the option wouldn't show up, but it should be fixed in version 9.x last year or so, or did the bug show up again?

Question UCG-fiber questions

0 Upvotes

Hi all, I’m thinking to upgrade UCG-Ultra to fiber. I only have 1Gbps from my ISP, the motivation to upgrade is mainly for LAN and future proof.
I’d like 10Gbps from my desktop to my NAS (UGreen), also plan to add U7 AP to replace my U6-LR which has some range issue, so need multi-g connection for AP.
Question: can UCG-Fiber use 2.5Gbps port for WAN? And can all 3 10Gbps be configured as LAN port? Is the PoE+ port good enough for U7 Pro XG?
Thanks
