Hello, I purchased 2 nano beams. I just dont see this setup page. The wrench and hammer icon in top right next to UNMS logop is missing. any help would be great. thank you

Exactly what I needed

UPS backup batteries on both ends for power outtages/blips brownouts so connections stay up and wont corrupt from multiple on/off cycles.

Pro tip: When it comes to outdoor poe equipment and inline surge suppressors (ground blocks or eth sp) use metal shielded cable ends on outdoor device to g block, then unshielded (clear) cable ends from g block to poe - proper grounding required

I’d like to see a video on UNMS and the options you have for installing. Also would like to know about that picture frame you have in the background.

Chris, thanks for the video! By the way, is it possible to connect two nanostations M5 (using the passthru POE) to re-direct the signal to another location? See, I have a relatively short distance but no LoS due to a small hill in between the buildings and I was thinking of "going up" and then down... sort of speaking... I'll appreciate any comment about it. Thanks from São Paulo, Brazil.

Greatest video! Thanks for sharing the information. What would be necessary to archive an affordable PTP bridge connection but without line of sight in an urban area?

Thank you for the info! I have the M5 so its a very similar process. but I am still running into trouble. and im not sure why. I have set up my access point in building A (where i have my ISP) and set up a station for building B. But how do i configure the router to be able to use the internet? When I plug in the router or plug my computer directly into the nanobeam it says there is no internet access. what am I doing wrong?

Thanks!

Good day Chris, is it possible to connect one of those Lite beam as the main and 3 others to 3 different building to distribute internet?

For awhile we were using 2 Nanobridge M5s to shoot a single approx 500 feet but the signal was going over a Quonset Hut on another property and when ever someone was in there using power it would mess with the signal till it was almost useless.

Interference can be a pain - try using a different part of the spectrum, or switch out to 2.4GHz instead.

With clear LOS, how consistent is the signal? Does speed fluctuate largely? Also, how does poor weather affect signal strength greatly?

A video on UNMS is a definite now that they have launched a cloud controller version.

How about one on bonding multiple of these to get a full bidirectional 1gb+ connection, with proper protection to stop the data leaking even when the WiFi key is broken

Hi Chris, have watched many of your very informative videos on KZread and wanted to ask you a question. I have an Edge Switch 8XP that is set up as follows. My router is connected to the Management port. On port 1 is my PC, on port 2 is a Nano Station Loco 5AC (AP PTP), on port 3 I have a Cloud Key Gen2+ . Then on port 4 is a UVC G3 Flex, on ports 5 & 6 are 2 x UVC G3 Pros My question is why can I not get the G3 Pro cameras to negotiate 100Mbps FDX as they will only connect at 10Mbps. The UVC G3 Flex connects fine at 100Mbps. Is there any reason why the wont connect at a higher speed? All the cabling is the same spec CAT6 and the lengths to all three camera locations is similar (around 15 metres) Also I have a Nano Station 5AC (ST PTP) that I will be mounting on my garage that will connect to the previously mentioned AP PTP on the house. I also have an AirCube AC, an EdgeSwitch 5XP and two more Ubiquiti cameras that will be in the garage. What is the best way to wire these up in terms of the AirCube AC and the switch in terms of supplying POE to the ST PTP and will Unifi Protect allow me to manage these two additional cameras via the 5XP switch in the garage and the wireless bridge? Any help you can offer will be greatly appreciated. Many thanks......Rod

How will the NanoBeams's handle rain and snow? I have a few use cases for clients but I'm worried about Cleveland winters.

I would be interested in a video on UNMS

Those nanobeam ac gen 2 are super easy to setup with the management radio. Chris in your experience what is the best way to align them properly? I like to use a laser pointer to get maximum accuracy. Maybe you have a better way to do it and I would like to learn it. Cheers! 🍻

Can you connect to the network between the main ap and station ap or, would you have to install an ap like a UAP-lite to the station side of the ptp? Trying to get internet from a house to a pool house. Thanks

Do you need a separate router at the 2nd point(the place your trying to gain wifi) or is that thing all you need and you can just logon at the destination where you added that device?

I was hoping you'd go through the process of configuring and tweaking the link to improve the speed. Can you point me in the direction of a video where you do that?

THis might be super noob basic question but - just confirming that I would use an ethernet cable to plug the 5AC into the "sending" wireless router and also the staton side 5AC into the receiving router? I live way up on a mountain but figured out I have mostly a clear line of sight to a neighbor's so we're going to do this, except for about 150 feet that I'll run a buried cable in PVC pipe for. Just wanted to make sure I'm getting the right supplies.

Chris, I help out running a swim club where we have the ISP entering the back of the facility in a shed. Rather than digging a ditch, I assume this will work best to go straight from the modem and bridge wirelessly to a Dream Machine Pro? I want to keep the DMP and all other equipment including Ubiquiti Access Control in the front office, but it would cost us thousands to trench for the cable company to provide internet up there. Off the DMP, I am running Omada EAPs that I already had with a separate VLAN for the members, etc. Can you confirm this system will be best solution to cover directly from the modem to the DMP to get internet to the front?

is it possible to use the 2nd Ubiquiti NanoBeam M5 also as a wifi access point? that saves an access point to buy for me.

Need to do a ptp building to building with clear LOS and only 50 ft distance and about 100 ft high. Which device will you recommend ?

is it possible to pass multiple vlans across the bridge? the bridge will act like a wire (transparent bridge) or do you need to configure vlans?

Chris: If the remote receiving point does not have AC power, how can you power it?

So 24v passive PoE can traverse the ETH-SP-G2 surge protector?

But in the CIty the NanoBeam were not Useable, because get hit by to much backround noise at the Station sites and the LiteBeam is half the price. It's all a Broadcast domain for running OSPF in case of a Fibercut. (as DC Provider our carriers had multible ways into the campus, but sometimes two cable search devices from cat find a cable) All of my routers are ER-X or ER-X-SFP and runns fine. Even if the Firmware failes doing upgrade on the MX960's, my network guys still could get into console. (They were rofl away, as they heard the price of my setup and call it "toys", but it saved their ass) So we mostly only use them for OOB access and backup way for Monitoring of your DWDM and connectivity platform

Hi Chris, thank you a lot for your videos, I am setting up a PTP what do you think the internet speed expected on the other side ? Should is drop way down or should it be close to the main speed getting into point A? Thanks

What could be the issue if my 2x nanobeam 5ac gen2 (bridge) connects well when i have one configured as Access Point ON with PTP off and second has AP off and PTP off. But when trying to change first AP + PTP ON and second AP OFF + PTP ON it does not want to connect with each other.

Can you limit the speed? Example if I get 100mbs and I only want them to get around 30 to make sure we have priority.

The Ubiquiti APs support 802.1Q if the feature WDS is enabled. WDS is enabled on the nanoBeam AC g2 by default and can't be turned off.

The ESP is not for a lightening strike. It's for static electricity in the "air". So strong electromagnetic fields and "static" potential energy on your roof during a storm. If lightening discharged through your wireless bridge and followed down into your cables, than the ESP protection will get blown to bits and the lightening would continue downwards. The siliest mistake I see is people Earthing a metal roof, which increases static energy and increases the chance of a capacitive discharge (lightening strike). Anyway great vid, btw.

when you are showing it it looks so easy but in reality its diffcult af if you also add manual work cable managment etc...
