I wrote about my first impressions of a UDM Pro but it sounded like the device I received my have not been working properly, based on a discussion with someone who works for the company. So this is a do-over.

I’m going to start from scratch and see how it works out.

I got this device direct from the manufacturer but haven’t had time to open it and set it up for a while. I’m opening it in November 2024 but I got it sometime around mid-year. Yes, I have been that busy.

NOTE: I started with old software, attempted to update, and then realized I had made a mistake and wasn’t fully updated.
