This. They make excellent access points and their lite beam/air fibre products are great.

But UniFi has serious limitations when it comes to anything beyond the basics. An off the self Asus all in one home router actually has more features and capabilities.

This is just not true at all. I agree unifi can be buggy at times, and their super clean interface means they need to hide stuff all over the place, but I havent found any network configuration I couldnt do on Unifi yet.

Care to elaborate on exactly which functions standard asus routers have over Ubiquiti gear?

    VLAN with an id of 0 isn't possible on the new interface last I checked. Which, granted is a weird thing to do, but...

      That's not a valid vlan ID for most vendors (Reserved) and can also be a security vulnerability, as it can allow traffic to elevate its Class of Service and hop vlans via this method.
