Weāre happy you decided to join us, Tony! Welcome!
Hey everybody. May name is Greg G. Several years ago I needed to build a network to provide internet to my home property and that of my Dad across the street. The wifi would need to cover about 6 acres. I worked for the County I lived in at the time and on the advice of our IT guy, and a friend that works at the phone company and is our ISP, I chose Ubiquiti to build it. Learned a lot from the Ubiquiti user forums, but also found Willieās Youtube channel, also Quick Tech Solutions and Crosstalk Solutions. Initially I found a bunch more channels but settled mainly on the three mentioned. Initially I used a PtMP ubiquity network to accomplish this and recently just use mesh access points scattered over the property to get internet to about 25 cameras, etc. I have learned almost all of what I know from
Willie and the other two channels I mentioned. Thanks for all the info over the years and I look forward to being a part of this community!!!

Thanks @williehowe, I have learned quite a bit from watching your videos and not only did it help me initially build the network, I have upgraded parts of it based on your reviews and knowledge as well over the years.

Hi all,
Christopher hereā¦ Just a Willie Howe fan who has definitely benefited from the sage advice of Willie - and probably a few others on here - in figuring out about all things re: Ubiquiti.
Also just happy to be a part of the community, especially on itās first official day.
Please bear with me in the future if and when I ask silly questions on hereā¦ still always learning

Hi, Iām Chris Iāve been involved in computing since 1974. In the 1980ās I worked at Cambridge University into the data link layer before Ethernet took over the world. I am a big fan of IPv6, sadly Ubiquiti donāt seem to see the world the same way.

Greetings one and all!
Iām Max, a Brit, living and working in North Eastern BC, Canada, and have been for 11+ years. SMB support, using T1 servers, desktops & laptops, with preferred network infrastructure from the Ubiquiti Unifi & Edge stables - although always dabbling and supporting whatever the customer might already have.
Love doing techie, geeky stuff away from work, but have a passion for sport, and a young family that demands my time!
