In the past, Windows-based UniFi servers were easy to install. You only needed to download the UniFi Network Application, install it, and it worked out of the box.
With the latest release of Ubiquiti’s UniFi Network server, Java versions 8 (UniFi v7.2) and 11 (UniFi v7.3) no longer support Access Points operating on the latest firmware. This means that your new UAP-U6-LR can’t be adopted onto your outdated controller. You will need to upgrade your controller to adopt the access point.
Installing or upgrading your UniFi controller has changed since the latest firmware and a 3rd party Java (Adoptium) needs to be installed. Below are the steps we recommend on how to install or upgrade your controller. Before starting the installation, remember to enable TCP Port 8080, TCP Port 8843, UDP Port 10001, and UDP Port 3478 on any local firewall (including Windows Defender) or antivirus software.
New Installation
Step 1: Navigate to https://adoptium.net/en-GB/temurin/releases/?version=17&os=windows&arch=x64
Ensure the correct Operating System, Architecture and Java version is selected. Once selected, download the .msi installer.
