I run lots of these. How many APs? Have you reset them to default yet?

Thanks Jared
Cables are 3 to 6 feet long - swapped them out already. All cables manufacture made purchased. They plug into the 
switch directly. Each switch is them multi-mode fiber back to a main switch where the edgeMax router and other gear are 
connected.

I have a variety of their gear and don't have problems like this. Have 
you run a cable tester on the wiring? This sounds quite odd and is 
something I haven't seen.

They do most of their support in their forums vs email. The email is 
mainly for RMA support.

What version software is on your controller and the UAP-Pros?

Ubiquiti Networks UniFi UAP-PRO Enterprise WiFi System - hard to 
recommend at this point. We saw people mention this brand here on the 
list - people like them. So what could we have set incorrectly ? They 
drop link and re-provision on their own at odd times day or night.

We have completed everything tech support asked of us. (Really, lame 
emails they respond with as if they didn't read your text - they 
won't call and you can't call them). We used POE from ciscos - then 
changed to their POE provided. They didn't recommend it, but we 
plugged them all into APC UPSes..... no difference. They all 
re-provision at different times even when no one is connected or in 
the building at odd hours like 2am.
Each one does this 2-3 times per 24 hour period.

Has anyone else experienced this?
Anyone know what we may have set incorrectly ?
Is this normal - do people put up with the 2 mins the APs are 
unavailable about 3 times a day? (UniFi support acts like it's not a 
big issues.)

We use the UniFi controller on mac os x. We use their EdgeMax Edge 
Router.
All the latest software in everything UniFi.

Thank You
