What did it say the status of the AP was when you were in there? Short answer: Leave the controller running. No reason to turn it off. You don't get any of the parts of UniFi that make it better than a dumb AP with the controller off. Also, don't put it on your desktop. Put it on a VM.

Decided I wanted to change something, so I started it up. It had just finished initializing; I clicked the "start" button, and my partner's laptop lost connection to WiFi. Sounds like a bug to me. bp <part15sbs{at}gmail{dot}com> On 1/21/2015 11:35 AM, Mike Hammett wrote: Never heard of that problem, but most people just leave the UniFi controller running 24/7.

Our new Unifi AP has been running about 24 hours without a hitch. I started up the controller on my desktop, and my partners laptop lost connection to WiFi. I had not pushed any buttons, merely "started" the Unifi controller app. Is this a known issue? Not nice. bp <part15sbs{at}gmail{dot}com> On 1/20/2015 11:54 AM, Josh Reynolds wrote: > It runs like shit on windows.
