For this kind of functionality you will need to get a Unifi Security Gateway. Here, you will find a section dedicated to displaying all traffic going in and out of your Ubiquiti devices as well as what kind of traffic is passing through what we refer to as DPI(Deep Packet Inspection). On the left navigation pane, click on statistics. DHCP Timeout/Failure – How long it takes before being kicked out for trying to obtain and IP address from the router or server within the LAN network.Block by access control – How many times blocked devices on the block list have attempted to connect to the access point.WPA Authentication Timeout/Failure – Same as association timeout, but for taking too long trying to authenticate the password.Association Timeout – The amount of time it takes for a device to try and connect before being kicked off after a certain amount of time spent trying.These sort of statistics tell you how many times a device has tried to connect to our access point and failed for the following reasons: Just below anomalies we have “Association Failures”. When an error like this occurs, it is best to change your WiFi passwords to something else for security. This is because some of those devices were previous blocked and are trying to access the access point again. As you can see, I have 3 anomalies in my controller telling me that some of the devices in the network have been rejected.

It is also calculated based on WiFi density and whether there’s interference nearby from other access points.Īnomalies are errors and warning information displayed on the Dashboard. A WiFi score depends on many factors such as whether enough people connected to the WiFi are experiencing a stable connection as well as through the WAN network that the access point has been connected to. At the top where it says “Everything is Good” is referred to as an “WiFi experience score”. Here, you can see a list of devices connected, their traffic, and any particular error the system or access point(s) that may have occurred. This is the front page of your Ubiquiti Unifi Controller. By default the controller utilizes port 80 for web access(e.g. Open up your web browser and navigate to your controller’s address.

When dealing with any wireless router with WPS, I highly recommend that you disable this particular feature as it’s most likely turned on by default in the router settings.

The UniFi series of access points does not support this function due to a major security flaw that allows anyone to gain access to a router with relative ease, therefore bypassing any form of password protection employed on the device. WPS allows for a wireless router to easily connect multiple devices without having to enter an WiFi password. Ubiquiti UniFi products and WPS(Wi-Fi Protected Setup) compatibility Before we go on ahead, there are a few things that you need to know about the UniFi Controller. The abundance of configuration options available will help give us more flexibility and security to our WiFi network than ever before. Of course that’s just barely scratching the surface. In my previous guide, we have gone and bought a Ubiquiti Unifi AP-AC Lite and installed it to our network via the UniFi Controller.
