Hmm. Thanks for being honest with me anon. I've helped clients out with setting them up but never extensively played with them. I'll dick around more with one of their UI control panels and see what they can actually do. I was very annoyed with the most recent update bricking two of them though. Update went fine, then they'd get stuck "requiring a reboot". Factory reset, works fine. Restore backup, requires reboot. Luckily neither client had very complicated setups. And I got to fix "the last guy's" fuckup w/r/t how their APs were extremely stupidly setup. Fucker made them get U7 ProMaxSuperwhatevers and didn't set up MLO, no dedicated 2.4G IoT network for their WPA2 only garbage like the alarm system, Sonos shit, etc.
Can't hate on him or Ubiquiti too much, free unexpected 2 hrs billed!

The really interesting stuff (cameras, door, etc) would be far enough into the future that I'd probably have replaced the router by then. I live in an apartment. Their switches look way too expensive for what I need.
I wasn't super sold on the RT-BE88U because of the lack of a 6 GHz radio. Not entirely sold on the UCG-Fiber but now I actually have another option IG.
Asus still getting returned for now lole, Frontier did in fact send me an eero 7. I'll plug it into the same chink shit 2.5G/10G switch I already have for now, and once I actually need to set something up beyond a Static IP at home...I'll probably buy both.

Or
>get frustrated with the ASUS doing what one of my older RT-AC68U's liked to do (oops the Nvram is full teehee. Gotta delete some static IP assignments anon-kun)
>buy another 2 cheaper ones with Wi-Fi 7
>hey ma, I'm going to upgrade your old AiMesh shit
Everybody wins. Including my ma.
