UniFi Cloud Gateway Ultra

This is one of the best home / SME routers I have used - it is easy to setup, has enterprise level features, and offers excellent value. The first thing that struck me about the Cloud Gateway Ultra was its size - it is about 150mm square and 25mm deep. And on the front is a very small screen to display essential information without having to look at the console. It feels and looks like a high quality item, and won't look out of place in a living room (it doesn't like a bit of IT kit ... for one thing all the ports are on the back!) Setup was a breeze (although at this point I must admit to over 20 years experience in this field of work ... ). It really was as simple as plugging it into my Virgin Hub 5 (setup in modem mode) and and switching it on. It took about 5 minutes for it to complete its self setup and get online. Despite the easy setup, this router is not really aimed at a typical home user. If you don't need the advanced features of this router then there are probably better alternatives. However, if you want something that gives you complete control over your network setup - VLANs, port forwarding, DHCP and lots more - then this is worth a look. Management is via a local web interface, cloud console or mobile app. This makes it easy to manage both locally and remotely, and gives excellent visibility of network performance. Integrated with Ubiquiti's own range of wireless access points, this router has everything even the most demanding home user or small office could wish for.

Used to replace this ISP (Gigaclear) hub, which was shockingly bad. Pretty easy to set up and pair with the Unify Access Points. Web based interface works well and the Unify Apps help too. Lots of possibilities to configure your WiFi network - miles more capable than I’ll ever utilise

If you’re looking to buy one of these, you probably already know the unrivalled potential of Unifi hardware to transform your home network. This is where you start - with a Cloud Gateway Ultra. I wont repeat the benefits of Unifi here (it would take too long), but you really wont be disappointed. This thing feels premium straight out of the box. It’s beautifully made and feels solid. It’s also small compared to most ISP routers, so if you’re looking to use it to replace your bulky ISP’s router, this will be an excellent solution. It doesn’t look out of place in a lounge (i.e. it doesn’t look like a horrible piece of IT kit) and you could easily hide it away somewhere if you wanted. Setup is a breeze, too. The display on the front is pretty cool but also tiny, so it’s pretty useless unless you have perfect vision. The Unifi app provides all the stats you need and more anyway. Another minor point, but it ships with some tiny sticky rubber “feet” which you have to peel off and stick on yourself. I’m not sure why Unifi expects its customers to effectively complete the assembly process for them, especially for such a premium product, but this is a minor point. This has 4 PoE ports in the back, but if you want WiFi you will need to buy additional hardware (or use your existing router in AP mode) but again, if you’re looking at Unifi, you probably already know this. Buy this. You wont be disappointed. (Photo shows the gateway sat next to my old outgoing Vodafone router so you can see how discrete it is).

Good, but some feature such as domain based policies are quite unreliable. Great UI and ease of setup, be aware this version lacks some more in depth monitoring that the more expensive versions have.

Delivered as expected Come with power adaptor as it is an EU plug Setup is fine but if you are looking for a device like this I would expect you to know what you are doing when setting up. Network management is now a lot more enterprise now Ubiquiti are using zone based firewall. Better than it used to be.

The UniFi Cloud Gateway Ultra is an absolute beast for its size. Setup was quick and seamless, and the performance jump compared to older gateways is huge. Routing is incredibly fast, UniFi OS runs smoothly, and remote management is effortless. It handles multiple VLANs, CCTV networks, and high-demand traffic without breaking a sweat. For anyone invested in the UniFi ecosystem—home or business—this is a fantastic upgrade. Small, powerful, silent, and extremely reliable. If you’re upgrading from a legacy Cloud Key, this is a massive step up and absolutely worth it. Highly recommended.

I bought this to act as a modem and wired router in place of a BT Homehub. This followed years of suffering flakey internet using a variety of mesh wifi systems, the latest of which (Deco 75Pro) has now been demoted to act purely as a wireless access point attached to this gateway. I can't praise it too highly - simple to install, great UI, staggering data and insights down to device level, and up to monitoring ISP performance - and I've likely only scraped the surface of its full capabilities. I struggle to believe what you get for the price; perhaps it's a gateway drug designed by Ubiquiti to get you hooked so that you buy loads of their other kit (in which case it's worked with me).

This is a great device to have at the heart of your Unifi setup, it's superb value for money with endless amounts network tweaking options available. I was previously using a Unifi Express 6 as my network router and the UCG was a massive upgrade. The UX6 is now just a WIFI AP which it is absolutely fine for in use conjunction with the UCG as the router.

Really impressive. I’ve been able to manage my home network with so much peace of mind. However, if you’re not a techi, ChatGPT is amazing. Just share screenshots and your ideals and it will guide you.

Superbra, lätt att konfigurera, känns snabb och får bra hastigheter Viktigt att notera att denna är utan WiFi så man behöver AP för WiFi

Delivery was perfectly on time. The router was properly packed, it works as expected and I am very happy about it. I would recommend this router to a friend.

Ormai da anni uso prodotti Ubiquity. Arrivavo da un vecchio router usg con Cloud Key separata, questo router è un gran salto di qualità. Funziona egregiamente come tutti i prodotti ubiquity
