Hi,
I'm from Copenhagen, Denmark.
I have a fiber connection (1000 Mbit/1000 Mbit) in my 2-story house (ground floor and 1st floor). I currently have two AmpliFi HD's joined as wired ethernet backhaul/backbone mesh. The house was built in 2015 (concrete), and we bought it in 2019. There is a central ethernet patch panel installed, with ethernet cabling to all rooms of our house. I think it is gigabit, because that it at least what my pc is detecting.
Each floor is 60-61 m2 which is ~650 sq ft hence a total of ~1300 sq ft.
AmpliFi HD #1 is sitting next to the fiber modem, and connected to the modem via the WAN port. Two of the LAN ports are connected to ports in the patch panel. In my office on the 1st floor, I have AmpliFi HD #2 connected to the ethernet port in the wall corresponding to the port in the patch panel. Now, AmpliFi HD #2 stopped working consequently we have no wifi on the 1st floor.
I want to replace my current setup with UniFi. Requirements are to 1. configure a wifi mesh with full coverage on booth floors, 2. possibility to connect ethernet wired devices and 3. might as well include WiFi 7.
I think my use case is pretty simple, and correct me if I'm wrong, but would this be the best solution for me?:
Ground floor next to the fiber modem:
1 UDR7 connected via the WAN port to the fiber modem.
1 LAN port connected to the patch panel.
1st floor office:
1 UX7 connected to the ethernet port in the wall corresponding to the connected port in the patch panel.
Wired connect pc to the LAN port of the UX7.
If this is the recommended solution, do I need any kind of PoE adapter or other accessories apart from the UDR7 and UX7?
What if I want to add more wired devices; is there a UniFi switch I should add to the setup?
I appreciate any guidance.
Thank you.
