AmpliFi Mesh Point Hd

Product Information

Access the AmpliFi web UI by navigating to http://amplifi.lan/. You must be on the local network (connected with your computer to the AmpliFi network). The MeshPoints have five LEDs that display the current signal level. Five lit LEDs indicate 100% signal level. You should have at least 80% signal, or four LEDs.See other LED statuses in this article. Routers you may be using as mesh points (RAMPs) will show their signal strength on their LCD screen (you should strive to have GREAT signal). If you prefer to see more precise percentage levels you can use the app: tap on the mesh point device (either MeshPoint or Router as a Mesh Point) and then see the signal level displayed. Depending on what your main goal is, you might want to change the band on which the mesh point is operating. Follow the steps in this article to change this setting. Option 1: Launch the AmpliFi app, and select Adopt to a router to add the MeshPoint to the app that has discovered it. Note it may take up to two minutes to fully adopt a new device. While most of the design is fantastic, we’re not too sold on the MeshPointHD designs, as they look a little ungainly compared to the rest of the setup.

Ready state: The router LED will be lit solid white at the maximum setting or at the brightness level you choose in the AmpliFi app. The MeshPoints will be lit based on the signal strength that they are receiving from the router. WPS (Wi-Fi Protected Setup) allows users to easily connect devices (like wireless printers and wireless cameras for example) that support WPS to the AmpliFi system. WPS can be enabled temporarily via the AmpliFi app or the webUI, take a look below: Enabling WPS on the AmpliFi mobile appAn additional 5GHz AC radio can be enabled if needed.

The AmpliFi HD Mesh Point, by Ubiquiti Labs, lets you create a mesh system with an existing Wi-Fi router. The device acts like one of the company’s satellite units on its existing AmpliFi HD Mesh System to expand Wi-Fi coverage within your home. If you happen to own the company’s mesh router and satellites, the Mesh Point can expand the existing network even more.

My log: Fits and starts of setting up the AmpliFi mesh point

AmpliFi will not replace your cable, DSL, or fiber modem. You need a modem to bridge the connection between your service providers internet service and your home router and devices. Note that AmpliFi provides the hardware, not the internet service. AmpliFi is also compatible with fiber optic services. Standalone MeshPoint HD (AFI-P-HD) is a fantastic solution for not only adding distance and coverage to existing AmpliFi units, but also works with third party routing solutions. Please note that the MeshPoint will not provide internet on its own, it must be paired to a router.
