We have a UniFi at work, and it is horrendous :(  I swear it gets power
cycled 5-10 times a day because random staff lose the ability to talk to
the network on it.  That said, when it IS working, it works very well, and
the management interface is quite cool.

We rode on the winds of the rising storm,
 We ran to the sounds of thunder.
We danced among the lightning bolts,
 and tore the world asunder
