Upgraded to Gig Internet — Are my UniFi AC Lites now the bottleneck? Leaning toward U6+
Running a UDM Pro with 3x UniFi AC Lite APs. Just upgraded Spectrum to Gig using an ARRIS SB8200 modem.
UDM Pro speed test shows ~932 down / 41 up, but wireless devices (Laptop/iphone) are still only seeing around ~150-250 down (upload improved noticeably).
APs are hardwired with Cat5e and running 5 GHz @ 80 MHz.
I’m leaning toward grabbing the UniFi U6+ APs I found on Amazon (~$125 each) as an upgrade path from the AC Lites, but wanted input before pulling the trigger.
For those that upgraded from AC Lites:
- noticeable improvement?
- worth jumping to U6 Pro instead?
- any issues running on existing Cat5e?
Seems like my WiFi hardware may now be the bottleneck more than the ISP.
