Narrowboat gamer here. I use a 4G router from Net Gear called Night Hawk. It can be connected to an external Arial if needed and has its own internal battery which will last around 5 hours. Most importantly for me it is powered/recharged by USB C. I use it for PC and Steam Deck gaming. The downside is that it’s expensive, I think I payed around £300 for mine.
IMO the ubiquity lacks cpu power. You will get latency spikes as you load them up. The ROG is a good choice, same with the Nighthawk. A great setup would be to setup one central ubiquity for all low priority devices on 2.4g then use the ROG for all the high priority devices on 5ghz
You just need to create an account and load an app on your phone to set it up. I find the Unifi app to be substantially better and more intuitive than the Netgear Nighthawk app I had for my last router. Lots of youtube videos on how to set it up too. Super simple. Only warning I will give you is that the system will tend to grow over time. I started with a gateway, switch, and two access points a year ago. Now I have a NVR and 5 cameras too, as well as a couple outdoor AP’s.
May mga spare Netgear Nighthawk ako na ginamit lang for testing. I can sell to you if need mo for a very cheap price. Dual band and of course gigabit ports na plus stronger wifi signals.
