UbiquitiUniFi Cloud Gateway Ultra

The UCG-Ultra delivers exceptional performance in a palm-sized form factor. Powered by a quad-core ARM Cortex-A53 and 3GB DDR4, it easily handles gigabit routing with IDS/IPS, VPN (WireGuard, L2TP, OpenVPN), and VLAN segmentation.✅ Highlights:1x 2.5GbE WAN + 4x 1GbE LANFull UniFi integration (adopted via UniFi OS)Supports up to ~300 clients, 30+ UniFi devicesUSB-C powered; silent and fanlessIdeal for SOHO, MSPs, and lab environmentsIt’s a robust edge device for anyone seeking UniFi centralization without stepping up to a Dream Machine SE or UXG-Pro. Highly efficient and rock-solid for 1Gbps networks.

Excellent home networking solution with great admin software giving details visibility and control of home networks. Supports multiple lanes, and with associated mesh WiFi, multiple ssids. Simple to administrate.

Had been using a network based version, running in proxmox. Which had been great and I later added the USG as my router.This version allows me to upgrade and have the software running on the device and is hopefully (seems to be) more reliable but also opens up more of the features, only possible when using the actual Unifi hardware.Important part for me was the ability to clone a MAC, so I can just add my ISP supplied fibre router MAC and it works, without having to ask the awkward ISP to allow it to be used. In my case there is no user/password, the router just self configures so long as the MAC is the one the ISP is expecting.

I’ve been in tech 20 years in enterprise networking. This is incredible, 1gbs native networking with all security enabled! This was only possible with higher end Cisco, Aruba, fortinet gear only a few years ago with appliance that cost £1000s. Unbiquity have managed this at under £130 with no licensing or any overhead costs. Truly a game changer. If I could give it more than 5 stars I would.I’ve bought one of these for myself, my parents and my sister so I can manage all the family networks in one dashboard.

I bought this to replace the UGC-3P plus Cloud controller that I've been using for the past few years.It's good that the 2 products are now integrated into a single unit.Installation was straightforward and easy.I decided against trying to transfer the configuration from the old kit - opting instead to build the new configuration from scratch, having made a note of relevant details (passwords, IP addresses etc.) before disconnecting the previous kit. This seemed an easier and cleaner way of doing it.The web interface looks very similar to the old one but with several improvements. The zone based firewall rules for example are much easier to understand and configure than previously.All told, very happy with this purchase.

Item arrived on time and worked well. A little expensive however as we found we could get cheaper direct from manufacturer.

Got this to replace an old USG-3P, the power brick (and possible USB stick) of which died. I had to change the DHCP IP range, but would otherwise just upload my old config from my self-hosted console, but I had to go through it's graphical nonsense, including coming up with a 12-character (temporary, I vainly hoped) password, skipping speed test, and accepting terms and conditions for a service I had deselected (the UI.com account). Sadly the user credentials for ssh must have changed and I was too lazy to search for them online.I'm not a fan of it forcing me to use the internal controller that's backed by a flimsy 16GB eMMC, I expect it will limit the lifespan of the device significantly (though it shouldn't be worse than the USB key in the USG it replaced), but I guess that's a good thing for Ubiquiti, and probably something I can give up hoping they will change their minds about.Restoring from my old console was a challenge. When you go to your UCG's website, you're presented with two independent UIs: One, represented by a round AP icon, is the controller. The other, represented by a rack mount server icon, being the "device UI" that you generally don't need to do much with. When restoring from the restore menu in the controller UI, there's no feedback that a restore is in progress, but it will work eventually. The 12 character password you picked earlier is still in effect, it doesn't restore the old password, but surprisingly all my devices were adopted quite quickly, even though the inform URL clearly changed.The display showing number of connected clients, etc, is gimmicky and a waste of money, that could appropriately have been used on screw holes to allow wall mounting.All that said, the migration was an hours time with minimum outage and it's nice knowing I now have add'l headroom. When I update my other USG, I should be able to use wireguard between the two sites instead of IPsec (through SD-WAN, site-to-site VPN still only offers IPsec and OpenVPN).I hope, but don't trust, that this router will last the six years that my old USG did.

I was using a UDM as my main gateway along with other UniFi products in my home. After upgrading my home internet to 2gb symmetric I wanted to utilise this speed with all of UniFi network safety features enabled. The screen at the front is a nice feature to glance at occasionally when walking past the device.As always with UniFi gear, you know what you are getting with performance, easy setup and great value for money.
