Why Is My UniFi Network Slow? Your UniFi network might be slow due to interference, outdated firmware, improper channel selection, or inadequate hardware for your usage demands. At UniFi Nerds, we’ve diagnosed and resolved thousands of performance issues across 25+ years of networking expertise.
Most Common Causes of Slow UniFi Networks
Overlapping channels from neighboring networks create congestion. Our certified technicians use professional tools like Fluke Networks equipment to identify optimal channels and eliminate interference in your specific environment.
Outdated Firmware
Running old firmware limits performance and security. We stay current with Ubiquiti’s latest releases and test early access firmware before public deployment to ensure optimal performance for our clients.
Inadequate Hardware Capacity
Your current UniFi equipment might not handle your actual usage demands. We conduct detailed capacity planning during our consultations to ensure scalable solutions that grow with your business needs.
Poor Access Point Placement
Incorrect AP positioning creates dead zones and forces devices to connect to distant access points. Our site surveys identify optimal placement for maximum coverage and performance.
Professional Network Performance Solutions
