Of the hundreds of Ubiquiti devices I've deployed, only the UniFi gear seems to have frequent issues on the hardware and software side. APs will update and need manually reset and reprovisioned, Dream Machines will lose their config after reboot, USWs will stop delivering PoE, etc. Ubiquiti Surveillance UniFi Protect delivers scalable enterprise-grade video surveillance with disruptive pricing, plug-and-play installation, and powerful remote viewing software.
- Close the Unifi Controller software and all of its related processes through the Task Manager (as discussed in solution 1). If the application is installed as service, then uninstall the service. Click on the Windows Search box (located at the Taskbar of your system) and type Control Panel.
- Ubiquiti may, from time to time and at its sole option, provide patches, bug fixes, corrections, updates, upgrades, support and maintenance releases or other modifications to the Software, including certain External Software, which items shall be deemed part of the Software and External Software hereunder.
