I have 1gbps internet and these piece of shit "commercial grade" routers can't even sustain full gigabit speeds. Has anyone here fallen for the Ubiquiti meme ?
my piece of shit ISP supplied NetComm does faster speeds than this. Tried both the USG and Edgerouter X.

>Edgerouter X
Was this named by a 14 year old?
Did you enable hardware NAT?
I too have 1gbps internet, and all the ubiquiti products are fine at these speeds assuming you've configured them correctly.
well it's an edge router, what else would you expect them to call it?
xX 2Edgy4U xX
yeah I enabled hardware offloading it's still struggling to get close to the speeds I get from my shitty supplied ISP router
this is my ISP router. If i swap over to edgerouter x or the USG, it dies around 700mbit down
Are you running off of wireless?
I dont think I'd be pulling down 934mbps on wifi m8
I dont use wireless for anything
What was the CLI command you used to enable hardware offload?
For the ER-X it should be
set system offload hwnat enable
For the USG it would be
set system offload ipv4 forwarding enable
set system offload ipv4 gre enable
set system offload ipv4 pppoe enable
set system offload ipv4 vlan enable
I'm getting 1g/s consistently on 5ghz.
Cable type and are you using dumbass bridging?
>buying anything ubiquiti
You goofed.
>full gigabit
the fuck is a "full gigabit", just say gigabit and talk like a normal person
I doubt it, 1gbps over wifi requires 4x4 access points and a 4x4 client device which rules out 90% of client devices.
Your phone is 2x2 most likely.
I've seen the Ubiquiti AP AC HD paired with a Macbook pro 2016 able to achieve ~930mbps over wifi within about 10 feet of the router, but go to a different room and it would drop to 600-700mbps.
If you want gigabit speeds, wired is by far the best solution.
when you charge your phone, do you wait for it to be fully charged or just charged
...wut

Custom pc card :>)
>If you want gigabit speeds, wired is by far the best solution.
It's your choice, but I've decked out my rigs with a dish and repeaters. 802.11ac is god.
If you're not turbo-computerlet, just build your own router or flash Ubiquiti and fuck off with their dumb as bricks "OS."
Do you charge cycle
When you buy a car do you buy a 8/2 valve car or 4 valve car?
Saying 'full' gigabit is redundant, either you have gigabit or you don't.
would you be pissed if your gigabit connection performed at "just gigabit" speed

Stop embarrassing yourself. You have to be 18 to LARP here
Do you think I'm not looking to die?
thanks that's what I used when I set it all up initially, I will plug it all in again soon wipe it and start all over. Are you running deep packet inspection on yours? I turned that shit off, but noticed no real difference
ipv4 forwarding is enabled, ipv4 offload module is enabled/loaded
using DHCP as my only authentication to my isp with IPoE
my 150 dollar chinkbox running pfsense I got from aliexpress works better than this
are you just stringing meaningless words together, or having a stroke, or both?
My $10 SSD machine runs better than any box on the market. Why are you paying so much?
>using DHCP as my only authentication
wat
If you want DPI and QoS AND gigabit WAN/LAN throughput it's gonna take a lot more than Ubiquiti gear.
With gigabit connection you basically can't have ANYTHING but the bare minimum enabled.
No QoS, no VLANs, etc.
IP over ethernet. there are no usernames or passwords, just turn on DHCP and you get authenticated
>gigabit
>complaining loss of 300
You already can download most movies in seconds, King Plebus.
so no authentication then
I don't think you quite understand ho- ........
BOI
as a fellow gigabit consumer, I'd be pretty pissed to. You're paying for gigabit, you should get it.
It's just like PPPoE but instead of encapsulating PPP in ethernet, it's directly encapsulating IP into ethernet. There is still authentication.
>Users are "authenticated" through the use of DHCPv4/v6 Option-82 inserting their Circuit-ID into their initial DHCP Discovery - this identifies the physical location of the user based on the tail that they are connected to (this would be done at an aggregation switch between the xPON network and whatever backhaul gets them to their ISP of choice).
>Users are "authenticated" through the use of DHCPv4/v6 Option-82 inserting their Circuit-ID into their initial DHCP Discovery - this identifies the physical location of the user based on the tail that they are connected to (this would be done at an aggregation switch between the xPON network and whatever backhaul gets them to their ISP of choice).
After this it's pretty much boring old Q-in-Q to deliver all users from a specific neighbourhood to their various ISPs.
The ISP will then service the DHCP request (if the Circuit-ID can be mapped to a valid user via RADIUS), provide an IP (and hopefully prefix-delegation if they're offering IPv6) and then create a logical interface representing that subscriber that you they apply their filtering/rate-shaping to and start grabbing stats from.
nfi really this is my first ISP using this connection method
Generally it's authenticated to your ONT, since the ONT is physically located on the property. All data is encrypted and only your ONT can decrypt it. This way it doesnt matter what router you use, as long as the ONT is the same, you're the same customer as far as the ISP is concerned.
Honestly far better than PPPoE
alright that seems to do the trick. DPI off, VLANs all OFF, QoS disabled, hardware offloading on.
thanks for the tips m8
beat me to it, I was confused because user made it sound like his PC/router was authenticating to the ISP with DHCP, when in fact the ISP couldn't give a fuck less what equipment he has since authentication is done via the GPON/ONT.
No problem, next step is to get your ISP to stop jewing you on upload speeds.
Assuming it's a GPON network they should have the bandwidth for it.
it's only 1000/400, gotta take what I can in kangaroo land the rest of the country is on less than 12mbps on average
yeah, I've seen how shit most of austrlian internet is.
How much are they charging you for that anyway? I've seen people paying $140+ for 100mbps.
100mbps/40mbps was $99.99 a month but my new isp is doing 1000/400 for $129
the government is jewing everyone because it charges ISPs massive fees to use the "national broadband network" hardware, they cancelled the nationwide fibre roll out halfway through and have gone back to using 50 year old copper into homes heh
so half the country has fibre to the home and the other half with have a mixed setup of half shitty copper and half fibre so its like a VDSL setup
>have 100mb/s speed
>or so my provider tells me
>cant go higher than 2mb/s
>change provider
>its still the same
>mfw wifi at university supports 20mb/s and a cable connection cant even come close
FUCK
THIS
SHIT
COUNTRY
Not too bad, I'm paying $95 for TV, digital phone, and 1000/1000mbps.
Without TV and Digital phone it would be $135/month.
Guess they needed some way to pad their TV subscription numbers.
>5 floors building
>4 units of pic related
>100% signal coverage
Have I? This things are pretty damn good.
Not sure about their routers(they seem pretty overpriced), we are running the APs through a cisco dual wan router.
What is gpon.
I have fibre to home max is still 100...
What modem do you have? I got a alcatel branded Nokia shit is big. Been wondering if I can use a ufiber gpon...
I wonder why you need 1gbps for yourself? And still need router? Straight plug into fiber modem?
PON is a passive optical network
GPON is Gigabit-capable passive optical network which is 2.2gbps downstream and 1.2gbps upstream.
A normal GPON configuration is split amongst 8, 16, or 32 customers.
an 8:1 GPON split means you're sharing 2.2/1.2gbps between 8 other people, generally that means everyone can have symmetrical 1gbps. You can also do 16:1 where you can have several 1/1gbps customers, or the ISP can decide to artificially limit it. Or if the ISP is being cheap they can opt for 32:1 and even 64:1 GPON splits, which generally will cap ~300-500mbps download speeds per customer at most.
In very large 128:1 splits speeds can be limited to ~50-100mbps per customer.
>150 dollar chinkbox running pfsense
details?
Not him but search for pfsense on aliexpress.
If you're interested in a box infested with Intel ME flaws make sure you gat one that supports the AEX cpu extension.
How do I find out which gpon ratio. My ISP uses?
You dont.
At least not unless they've published any technical documents regarding their network topology.
Some of the techs might know, but installation techs might not. They likely wouldn't just tell you if asked either.
My ER-X-SFP works good enough with hardware NAT offloading on a 1Gbps line. I haven't hit full gigabit speeds either, 920Mbps is the best I've managed, but the price-performance ratio of the router is great.
Edgerouters are stupid easy to setup, you are doing something wrong user. Have a couple and installed several others and never had any problems.
One of the X was in a room that flooded and worked for a month soaked in water without nobody noticing before it died.
>920Mbps is the best I've managed
You'd only get another ~25mbps anyway.
TCP/IP packet overhead is 5.5%. 5.5% on 1000mbps is 55mbps. So at most with normal packets (ie, not jumbo packets) you'll cap out at 945mbps.
Since there might be a lot of people here anyway with Ubiquity equipment does anyone know if the Edgerouter Light is able to maintain gigabit speeds while having QoS, VLAN's and maybe more services enabled?
>1gbps internet
That's theoretical speeds, like for best conditions in a lab. Kinda like how Verizon Gigabit is really 940mbps.
>my piece of shit ISP supplied NetComm does faster speeds than this.
I doubt it.
None of the lower end ubiquiti gear is.
Maybe the Edgerouter Pro-8.
amazon.com
But honestly you'd probably be better of building pfsense box.
This is a reddit comment chain.
Thanks for the answer. How about Mikrotik gear? I really like RouterOS anyway.
No it's not, verizon's gigabit is just like everyone else's gigabit.
In best case scenario you're still hitting TCP/IP packet overhead on the customer's local network, regardless of the ISP topology.
So 945mbps is literally the fastest it CAN go with current ethernet specifications.
:( i only have 20 Mbps...yuropoor
For any non brainlets in these situations:
LEDE with fastpath kernel patch - github.com
>In best case scenario you're still hitting TCP/IP packet overhead on the customer's local network, regardless of the ISP topology.
So those gigabit speeds are not really "gigabit" speeds, you just gave a different reason for it. Either way, it's still 940mbps
>Mikrotik gear
Look at their $300+ rackmount stuff and that should be the level you need for QoS/VLANs etc at 1gbps.
Your statement of you can get it in the lab is just wrong is my point, the limit isn't lab vs real world, the limit is the ethernet specification.
>the limit isn't lab vs real world, the limit is the ethernet specification.
I concede, you're correct, however overhead makes it technically non-gigabit, but if we round to the nearest 100 then...
Nice. Sounds like a pretty decent setup to use without spending as much as Cisco would ask for example.
Might go for it soon.

Honestly probably overkill for you, but that would be great for learning on as it comes with 60GB SSD for proxy cache or all sorts of other shit.
I guess, for everything but speedtests though it's not like it matters, you'll be more limited by the servers you're connected to long before you hit your 1gbps theoretical limit.
Yeah I've looked at that model before. I,ve explored RouterOS a lot with vmware but I'm not generating enough traffic to actually really look at DUDE.
Should be a nice device to have. I'm a Cisco CCNA student ayway so extra experience with serious equipment is good anyway. Besides I want to be able to use almost all networking brands.
get an apu2 and put openbsd on it
They're pretty good right up to the point when the stupid fucking controller software stops working because it's a gigantic java piece of shit.
