Hardware Installation

The UniFi Security Gateway can be used on a level, stable surface, or mounted to a wall with the included screws and anchors. If you are not going to mount the UniFi Security Gateway on a wall, then skip to the section, Connecting Power.
WARNING: To reduce the risk of fire or electric shock, do not expose this product to rain or moisture.
WARNING: FAILURE TO PROVIDE PROPER VENTILATION MAY CAUSE FIRE HAZARD. KEEP AT LEAST 20 MM OF CLEARANCE NEXT TO THE VENTILATION HOLES FOR ADEQUATE AIRFLOW.

Wall-Mounting
To mount the UniFi Security Gateway on a wall, you will need a drill, a 6 mm drill bit, and a Phillips screwdriver.

Use a 6 mm drill bit to drill two holes 90 mm apart. Insert a Screw Anchor into each hole.
Use a Phillips screwdriver to secure a Screw into each anchor. Leave a clearance of approximately 3 mm between the screw head and the wall.
Position the UniFi Security Gateway over the Screws, and insert the Screws into the wall-mount slots located on the bottom of the UniFi Security Gateway. Then slide the UniFi Security Gateway down to lock it into place.

Connecting Power

Connect the Power Adapter to the power port.
Connect the Power Cord to the Power Adapter. Connect the other end of the Power Cord to a grounded power source.

NETWORK CONNECTION

Connect an Ethernet cable from a broadband modem or WAN to the WAN 1 port.
Connect an Ethernet cable from a network switch to the LAN 1 port.

Note: LAN 1 is set to DHCP Server by default.

Software Installation

Download and install the latest version of the UniFi Controller software at: www.ubnt.com/download/unifi From a management station connected to the same Layer-2 network, launch the installer and follow the on-screen instructions.
Note: If you already have UniFi Controller v5.4 or higher installed, go to the section, Adopting the UniFi Security Gateway.

The Ubiquiti UniFi Controller window will appear. Click Launch a Browser to Manage the Network.
Select your country and time zone. Alternatively, you can click restore from a previous backup to use a file that contains your backup settings. Click Next.
The UniFi Controller will discover the UniFi Security Gateway with the default IP Address,192.168.1.1. Select the device, and click Next.
Create an SSID (wireless network name) and Security Key. Click Next. If you do not have any UniFi APs on the network, click Skip.
Create an Admin Name and Password for super admin access to the UniFi Controller. Confirm the Password, and click Next.
Review the UniFi Controller settings. Click Finish to complete the UniFi Setup Wizard.

From a web browser, go to https://setup.ubnt.com/
The UniFi Gateway login window will appear. Enter your Username and Password. Click Sign In. Note: If the UniFi Security Gateway has not been adopted by a UniFi Controller, the login window will be skipped and the Setup window will appear.
