Introducing AmpliFi Instant!
-
@chris-brown We have already lined up sales with Amazon, they are just awaiting inventory to become available and then it will post for sale. Please check Amazon over the next few days for this update.
-
I still want a router that isn't an access point!
-
@michaele rhe amplifi hd is a stand alone router also.
-
@martin-rautenbach right but I can't turn off the radio when it is meshed with others. Main router is in an odd place and nothing I can do about that really.
-
Will the Instant have WPA3 capability?
Seems odd to release a new router today without WPA3 support planned
-
@derek-saville Last I heard (~2 months ago), they were evaluating if they can add WPA3 support via a firmware update to existing hardware. I don't know if something has changed since then.

Any idea when this will become available in the UK?
Thanks
-
When will Bestbuy have this in stock?
-
Can I combine an Instant mesh system with an Instant router all connected by ethernet backhaul? (so: Instant router - Instant Router (AP) - Meshpoint (AP)
-
Hi @ubnt-brett - images on the AmpliFi Instant site show setups with two Instant Mesh points:
When will we be able to purchase individual Instant Mesh points to add to a mesh network?
-
@derek-saville That is actually an error in the graphic. The only add on Instants that are being manufactured are Instant stand alone routers, which can be added via wireless mesh or ethernet backhaul.
-
I'm qurious about using this as a media bridge would be useful for situations where I can't use a LAN cable but I have lan switch a nearby.
-
Bought one for my Dad and installed it. Only complaint is requiring me to have facebook or google to remotely manage the thing. Why not use the UBNT account infrastructure too?
Will more mesh points be sold? My dad has a basement and it's not getting good signal down stairs, but I needed to use the mesh point on the other side of the house in the kitchen to extend the signal.
-
@tom-boucher Thank you for your suggestion! I will add it to the list of feature requests for future consideration.
As of right now, additional mesh points will not be sold. However you can add an additional AFI-INS-R (Stand alone Instant router) as a mesh point either wired or wireless to your mesh network to increase the signal in the basement.
