Dear Ubiquiti Inc,
The UDR-5G Max is a strong step forward—and I deployed it within days of release because I believe in the UniFi ecosystem.
But there’s one critical piece missing:
No Wi-Fi WAN.
In mobile and live event environments, that’s not optional—it’s essential.
Right now, I still rely on my Peplink BR1 to pull in venue Wi-Fi and hand off WAN to the Dream Router. It works—but it adds complexity to what should be a clean, single-device deployment.
For a complete mobile-connected workflow, we need three layers of internet resilience:
- Primary WAN (hardline/ethernet)
- Cellular backup
- Wi-Fi WAN (venue network access)
The UDR-5G Max handles two—but Wi-Fi WAN is the missing third layer.
Add that, and this becomes a true all-in-one solution for mobile production, live events, and cloud-connected workflows.
Until then, we’re still building around it instead of fully with it.
