This seems like an odd misunderstanding, especially because the correct inversion “UBNT” is the default login name for most UniFi web UIs.
You might have a bit of dyslexia, OP!
- kayfox 6mo agoUBNT stands for UBiquiti NeTworks.
- dwood_dev 6mo agoubnt has been the ubiquiti default login at least back to 2010 when I started using their products, before UniFi was a brand. I always assumed it was short for Ubiquiti Networks.
- hrimfaxi 6mo agoSure, but the parent was saying this part was odd: > "TNBU" is "UNBT" backwards TNBU is clearly NOT uNbt backwards.
- idorosen 6mo agoUsing the network byte ordering (big endian) of UBNT as the magic number in the protocol is a nice touch.
- EvanAnderson 6mo agoI believe they used MIPS processors in their early gear, so that makes sense.
- mikepurvis 6mo agoA lot of companies in that space did then. I was at a robotics company at the time and we experimented with mikrotik routerboards + the various long-range Ubiquiti wifi modules, some of which are even still listed on the website: https://techspecs.ui.com/uisp/accessory-tech/xr https://techspecs.ui.com/uisp/accessory-tech/xr (though not the 900 MHz XR9, which was arguably one of the most interesting for long range comms)
