Damn $80 to mount a $130 box...lol
I'd go with the $29 option personally.
Pretty sure that's just the adapter.

This is sweet. Can't seem to order online though?

How's the VPN performance on the ERL?
Anyone??
I don't use VPNs
LANless world for me.

Last I heard it's pretty decent. I haven't tested it myself.

The answer is "it depends" of course.
OpenVPN maxes out at ~12mbps due to processor constraints.
Offloaded IPSEC can do north of 100mbps, this thread has some postings.
https://community.ubnt.com/t5/EdgeMAX/ERL-Performance-Testing-with-IPSec-VPN/td-p/1050229If you have any kind of traffic shaping policies enabled though, you will lose all offload capability and thus lose performance.
Using IPSEC and one method of traffic policy, I can only get roughly 35mbps. Using another form of traffic policy I can get 65mpbs.

I like the ER X for home use because you can get the PoE model and run a couple APs (even the 24v passive ones) off it and not have to have an injector or PoE switch for it. Makes for a clean low power draw install.

I tried this, and after a few months, the included power brick was long longer providing enough power to the ER-X to power the ER-X and a UAP-AC Lite. To keep from having to buy anything, I just put the UAP-AC Lite's power injector back into play.
Did you replace the power brick?

@dashrender I haven't had to replace it yet. CAT 6 23 gauge cable?

If you're asking what kind of cable went from the ER-X to my UAP-AC Lite, it was a Cat 5e. You really think the Cat 6 makes that much of a difference over 6 ft?

If your AP is 6' away, then no, I don't think that would matter. I was thinking of a couple of them further away on longer runs. The higher gauge cable might increase the heat enough to smoke a small PoE injector. In theory it shouldn't matter, I'm just trying to guess as to what happened with yours.

Are you using the POE injector that came with your UAP to power your ER-X and UAP?
How are you powering more than one UAP through a ER-X? there is only one POE output port on the ER-X.

This is completely incorrect.
The ER-X has a single passtrough PoE port (eth4). With a wall wart other than the one provided, you can also use that same port (eth4) to power an access point without a PoE injector powering the ER-X itself.

It does (at least for a while) work with the included wall wart - but as noted, at some point it failed for me.

Lots of things work, but it is not intened to work that way and using it as such is at your own risk.

I was sure I had a ER X PoE, but you're right, it's a ER PoE. OK, so for a clean home install, get a ER PoE...
