The AP One AC Mini is for businesses and home users whose current router WiFi capabilities are either limited or nonexistent. Connecting this access point to a Pepwave or Peplink router will instantly give it a full complement enterprise-level WiFi features. It can be used with other routers as well, although the features may be limited in some cases. The Peplink AP One Mini will broadcast a WiFi signal up to 400 feet on average using dual band MiMo. Their TruePower RF technology gives it predictable coverage with adaptive power response to current needs.

Anyone who needs a seamless high-power wireless network can get it from the AP One without buying a new router. Run enterprise offices, branch networks, school networks, home entertainment systems and much more. The access point can broadcast up to four separate networks, letting you split features and support based on the user pool. Everyone who purchases a Pepwave AP receives their InControl software for cloud-based monitoring and management. Add an optional PoE injector or extended warranty to get even better performance and support for your new wireless access point.

The AP One AC Mini broadcasts WiFi up to 400' on either the 2.4GHz or 5.0GHz frequency in average conditions (actual real-world WiFi range varies based on construction, interference, etc).

5Gstore is a Peplink Certified PartnerApplications:

  • Enterprise: AP One gives you the perfect combination of enterprise features and affordability. Relying on consumer level gear can mean dealing with frequent reboots and security holes. AP One provides the features you need with enterprise grade reliability.

Resources

Peplink announced on 4/30/2024 that the AP One AC Mini will launch a new hardware revision, and with this will come a slight name change. 
  • The AP One Mini(previously known as AC One AC Mini) offers the same capabilities and functionality.
  • There will be no difference between the HW2 and HW3 as all features, settings, configurations, and UI will remain unchanged. 
Please be aware that the firmware upgrades will need to be for your specific hardware revision, as this will be different for the HW2 vs HW3.

Pepwave offers a central management tool called InControl, which is free to customers purchasing any AP solution. This service allows you to easily manage all the wireless devices on your network to help you reduce network overhead costs. Read more about how InControl can help you manage your network.

Real Radio Performance, No Marketing Hype. Our TruePower RF technology makes dead spots and interference easy to overcome. Pepwave’s AP One has five times the power of other solutions, and unlike other high-power solutions, we provide full power on all channels to achieve predictable coverage over a larger area, with fewer APs. Our adaptive power intelligence dynamically responds to the environment to make sure the correct amount of power is used. And thanks to its rugged metal enclosure, the AP One will withstand demanding commercial and industrial environments.

Unique Networks for Different Users. The Pepwave AP One supports up to four discrete wireless networks (SSIDs), making it easy, for example, to set up a password-protected network for your employees and an open network with a portal splash screen for guest users. Built-in VLAN support allows you to map specific wireless networks to different groups of computers, letting you enforce security rules over the Wi-Fi network.

Works With Peplink Balance WLAN Control, or Without It! Pepwave AP One access points are automatically recognized by the Peplink Balance, allowing you to easily configure and manage your WLAN network. Unlike other business WLAN solutions, an AP controller is not required at all times, so your AP One will work even if it’s not connected to the Peplink Balance. In other words, the AP One can be used with virtually ANY router, not just a controller - many APs cannot. Pepwave also provides InControl cloud-based management as an alternative for managing and configuring your AP One devices.

Robust Security Made Simple. Keeping your business information secure is critical. The AP One is ready to handle the latest security standards and is equipped with unique security features to make running an enterprise network simple. With Guest Protect, you can give your visitors access to the Internet without giving them access to your internal computers and data. The AP One also allows you to limit the amount of bandwidth available to guests and enforce application policies, all while giving authorized users full priority and customized access rights. With the AP One, you no longer have to sacrifice security for flexibility.

I love the management integration..... But it kind of ends there. Setup two of these in two different buildings. At first they seemed ok but then I started getting complaints about dropped Vonage calls on cell phones and later cell wifi calls. I bought a third one and created a mesh. Pretty much nothing changed. Started checking signals and these babies were weak. The old lynksys home router would blow them away. It's funny as the MAX BR1 in the RV has a great wifi signal. Not sure exactly where to go from here,
guess that is up to Pepwave..... but.... you will probably should steer clear of these Minis

Swapped out a AP One Enterprise, laptop in the next room went from 200-250Mbit to 500-550Mbit, as long as you keep your expectations reasonable, you should be pleased with it

Date Added: 06/18/2021 by Christopher H. (Wayne, ME)
I really wanted to love this access point. Bottom line is that 5GHz performance is 1/3 of the AC Mini and the power consumption and heat generation is quite high, hot to the touch! The day I received this, it got discontinued at the 5GStore. As a result of this, I am either getting the new "Lite" version or another AC Mini.

Haven't set it up yet.

Sort By:

Does a Peplink AP include 1 year of Inctonrol2 for free?

Yes, InControl2 is included with the free 1 year EssentialCare subscription that comes with the purchase of the AP One AC Mini.

Can a POE switch meeting IEEE802.3af/at connect the AP One AC Mini to the Balance One Core?

Yes it can. The AP One AC Mini uses 802.3af PoE input.

Does the Pepwave AP One AC Mini have a built in DHCP server to assing IP addresses to wireless clients?

Yes, The AP One AC Mini offers a router mode that will allow the unit to assign DHCP addresses.

When used with the Pepwave Surf SOHO will the AP One AC Mini extend existing wifi access points or it will create his own?

The Pepwave Surf SOHO does NOT support the AP Controller feature, which is what would allow you to have WiFi controlled by the main router. This provides the exact same SSID settings on the SOHO and your APs so you only have to configure the settings once. With the SOHO, you have to configure the APs separately. Technically, they are separate SSIDs, but you can still configure them with the same SSID and passwords to help with hand off between APs. The APs also support bridge mode, which means anything that connects through the APs will be on the same network as anything connected to the SOHO.

Can the Pepwave AP One AC mini be used to extend the wifi range of a MIFI or other mobile hotspot?

The AP One AC Mini must be connected via Ethernet in order to provide WiFi access so while it wouldn't work with the MiFi, it can work with hotspots that have Ethernet LAN ports. For the MiFi, a WiFi as WAN capable device would be recommended (see: https://5gstore.com/waw).

Can the Pepwave Surf SOHO act as a router for the Pepwave AP One access points?

Yes, you can connect the Pepwave APs to any router.

Where can I find the PoE injector for the Pepwave AP One AC Mini?

Here is the PoE injector for the AP One AC Mini: http://5gstore.com/product/3526_pepwave_power_over_ethernet_injector.html

If I purchase a single AP One AC Mini can I setup a VPN from it to another site that's running a Peplink SOHO?

You would still require a router to connect the AP One AC Mini to. There's no way you could setup a VPN connection through a standalone AP.
