I assume that it hangs under the roof, in which case the shielding may well be too great. Mine hangs on the front of the house at about 3.5m and reaches about 70m to the next but one neighbour. Maybe the configuration is wrong or the WLAN networks in the vicinity are interfering too much.

Yes, the access point works with *any* router. Connect router and access point with Ethernet cable and then configure the access point (e.g. with the iOS app, or UniFi Cloud Key, or UniFi Cloud). Important: If the router itself does not supply power (Power-over-Ethernet PoE) via the Ethernet port (unfortunately this is the case with the ER-X), you still need to loop the Ethernet cable through an Ubiquiti power adapter (should be included in the scope of delivery of the AP-AC-M, if I interpret this attribute correctly: "May be equipped with a power adapter: Yes").
Unfortunately, I too have been looking for antennas that I can replace, no I have found them on Chinese sites but they are not suitable for outdoors, so I do not recommend them. I don't know where you can find them at a good price. I found several but the price was more expensive than the device itself.

In the controller on a PC this is only a flag that needs to be set, I have never used the smartphone app. I recommend using the client controller (download unifi.exe from Ubiquity) to make all the settings.
Yes, I had two of these devices in use, one in the house, one in the carport shed. Another 8-port switch with 3 UniFi cameras was connected there. Depending on the distance and obstacles, stronger antennas may be helpful.
Hello, the second port is for injecting the year, nothing else. Cdt

sorry, I asked the question about the wrong product. Can be deleted!

Yes, it works if you don't have a problem with the lower speed that results.

It works for me. I operate a Hue Bridge on the AP-AC-M Mesh, which is only "Wireless Connected", i.e. has a wireless uplink. To do this, I first configured the Hue Bridge on a regular Ubiquiti switch and then simply plugged it into the LAN input/(output) port of the supplied Ubiquiti POE Injector. Strange, but it works for me.

Yes, as has already been written. It is called a wireless uplink to the M. Set up as already written, do not do it via WLAN uplink: set up via LAN, see if everything works and then test the uplink first in general and then at the planned location. Remember that you must activate the general uplink capability in the controller software, that the AP connected via LAN must (only) have "uplink" activated and finally that the remote AP must allow the connection to another AP. This can be found in the respective settings. Otherwise, google the instructions. Important: my experience shows that these APs from Ubiquiti are actually designed more for mesh, i.e. you need several instead of one that "blows" fully. This means that the connection often only works well over short distances in our buildings here. This applies to the wireless uplink as well as to client connections. (Balcony) glass doors and the usual reinforced concrete walls here are absolute poison for WLAN signals and even more so for 5GHz. In case of problems, I recommend running the M via 2.4 (strength "low" or max. "medium"), although I am not sure whether the wireless uplink always runs via 5GHz or also via 2.4 if you have deactivated all 5GHz.
Simply complain to Digitec customer service. Point out that they have made a mistake and should send you an adapter or cable. see below. -----8<------------------8<------------------8<------ Digitec is obliged to supply electrical appliances with a Swiss plug. If the appliance is supplied with a foreign plug, a suitable replacement cable should be supplied if the mains cable is pluggable, or alternatively if the mains cable is permanently connected, a suitable adapter should be supplied. If the appliance is delivered without a suitable plug, complain to the customer service and insist on a cable or an adapter, free of charge.

No, that won't do you much good. Unless the two APs you already have are not optimally placed. But you can also reposition the LR and integrate it as a mesh. The cable is not mandatory. This way you can test the effect without any costs.

Why Devolo ? Simply mesh with PoE injector at the socket.

Hello - yes it is possible! The mesh version can be connected to an existing network via ethernet cable or configured wirelessly.

Should work without problems with the Pro. Your problem could be due to any number of reasons. The first could be a problem in the firmware (there are some that break down the wireless uplink in various combinations). Which one did you install and which one does your Pro have that the M is "attached" to? Have you assigned a static IP for the M? Was it always connected via wireless uplink or initially via LAN cable? What is the wifi channel used on the Pro? Is the Pro correctly configured for uplink? IUsw. I recommend you go to the Ubiquity forum for help if you get stuck, this isn't quite the right place.
Hello Phinel81 I have one Unfi AP HD Pro, two AP Mesh and one Mesh Pro. Everything works together. One AP Mesh is supplied with WLAN by the AP Pro via Wireless Uplink. Works very well. I don't use the FlexHD, but I imagine that it works just like the other Unifi APs.
The Injector is not splash-proof. The plug of the cable is plugged in underneath the lower protective cover of the AP and thus this plug connection is also splash-proof, regardless of the cable type, and thus suitable for outdoors. Nothing is waterproof, not even the AP.
No, the mesh only works with Ubiquiti products.
According to the specification, the "Ubiquiti UniFi AP-ACM" can also be installed as a repeater. I use it as an AP myself.
Helpful answer
You can do both: Either connect via LAN or WLAN from the previous network.
The antennas can be replaced. Nothing against it
Yes ! Mesh works exactly the same as AP.
