    That bad boy.

    Simply use it as the Wifi AP and mount it centrally in the house. It also gives you maximum control with the intuitive Unifi software.

    Also allows you to expand easily in the future should you need it.

    Don't think that's what I'm looking for I just want something that can plug and play instead of that crap f2000. My house is just ur average size and can use the f2000 in bridge mode if needed

    Like the thread's only four pages and there are a limited number of modems you can replace the f2000 with.

    You can bridge the f2000 and connect any router you want to it and let the router do all the work. Would probably work out cheaper.

    There is none plug and play. If you don't have the time to read the thread then you won't have the time to configure one of the ones confirmed as compatible and tested working with Eir
