Depends a lot on the house. My house is <2000 sqft, but signal, especially 5Ghz propagates poorly though old school plaster walls.

It wasn’t a problem until covid when multiple meeting or other streams just performed poorly on a marginal network. The Ubiquiti gear made it easier to run antennas for optimal signal.

The hot thing to do is to shit on them, but I’ll be sticking with it. They’ll emerge better from this crisis and if you think that any competitor in this price point is better, you’re delusional.

Also, foil-backed insulation [0]. I finally figured out they insulated the hell out of my house with this stuff.

Works amazingly on heating and cooling bills, but it's a pretty solid wall to radio waves.

COVID had me setting up more UniFi APs. It held up incredibly well for moving large files across VPNs and running multiple Zooms for work places and school.

COVID must have been a massive boost to their bottom line.

I’m no market analyst, but the last year, even including the last week, has been very good to Ubiquiti.
