  • The Amplifi instant Wifi is the easiest and fastest mesh wireless setup I've tested. The setup was easier than the setup from Eero, Netgear Orbi, Linksys Velop, TP Link Deco, and Google Wifi. The whole process took only 2 minutes.
    The Amplifi HD Gamer's Edition is Ubiquiti's latest wireless system that's built for gamers and optimized for Nvidia's GeForce Now Streaming service.

    Just bought the instant based on your other review on different Mesh systems for different house holds and am over the moon with it. I bought a duel pack then added a additional single router to extend the mesh. Please note if you have the duel system you cant link another duel system you have to buy a single and you can add a HD to the instant if you like. One point not mentioned is that the instant offers ethernet on the duel system on both units which I needed for a TV in one of the bedrooms that did not have wifi and the HD boosters dont only on the main unit. In all I love it and have now dumped all my extenders and theres no having to jump to a different wifi point for better signal it just does it. Just to add Amazon UK have a great deal on the instant at £99 for the duel kit a d £69 for a single unit.

    Good video-although; and it’s about the ‘Instant’: How come you didn’t also try and wire the node? So we could see how great(er) the performance is with their ‘backhaul’ function (this function is instead of the preferred third band for the units to communicate internally so it doesn’t affect the bandwidth (in the same amount)) 😀.

    hey majestechs, ive been following your youtube channel for unbiased and quality audio reviews for a very long time.
    i'm writing this to you in hopes that i'll get some help or rather some insight for the troubles im facing with my home theatre. its not much but for the budget I have now, I'm very happy with my current setup except for this one problem.
    im currently using an Onkyo TX NR757 audio receiver with my optoma hd143x projector, and Ive recently purchased the amzon firestick 4K.
    im aware that my projector is only FullHD and not 4k but my receiver however is listed as 4K ready receiver.
    after ive plugged in my 4K firestick I was wondering if whether or not my amazon stick would consider my receiver as a 4K device and push through 4K content or will it consider my projector's setting of 1080P and only display a max of 1080P content.
    to put it in brief, will my 4K ready receiver Onkyo TX NR757 feed my 1080P optoma hd143x (even if it displays downgraded 4k content) 4K content from the 4K firestick or not

    Chris, bottom line it for me. Would you buy the Ubiquiti Amplifi system for your house ? I’m looking to trash my Linksys EA9500.

    • @ChrisMajestic
      @ChrisMajestic  Před 4 lety

      The Ubiquti is fantastic for people who aren't looking for blazing fast speeds. The ea9500 is hard to beat on throughput but any of the mesh systems will have better range. You have to decide if range and stability is more important than throughput/speed. The only mesh system that will come close in speed would be the Orbi. How fast is your internet connection?

  • @lewiskelly14
    @lewiskelly14 Před 5 lety

    You didn't mention in the summary that the game is edition has an extra mesh thingy, and when you did the speed comparisons you didn't make any reference to what you would normally get with other systems so other than between the two featured in this video we didn't have a comparison of whether that is a good speed that you would expect in your environment.

    Dude, when you plug them into the wall. Will they short out your homes electric system from time to time? We tried something similar in 2017 and I had to constantly reset the rooms with the main circuit breaker like every 3 days.

    • @docurley

      You must have had a problem with the unit you plugged in or an issue with your electrics, this or any other device should not cause a short unless the above is an issue.

      I have all that running at my home and the Amplifihd is amazing. Also allows for QOS so you can tell it this device is for gaming that device is for streaming and this device is for normal internet use. It also allows for port forwarding. You can change the ip address as well as better DNS servers than your ISP providers defaults you to. You can cloud remote to it as well. SHUT OFF the SSID from public displaying. It has a Guest wifi mode where you can share for certain amount of time for certain amount of connections. You can create like other mesh systems multiple profiles - so if you have kids you can add their devices to that then pause the device or schedule a pause when they arent suppose to be on..lol..anyways.. it's a solid product..

      I mentioned in a caption that they support wired backhaul. However, most people dont have multiple rooms wired with ethernet. Most people dont want to or have issues logging into the ISP's modem to put it in bridge mode. Either way works. I have another video explaining the different options.
