I Love Expensive Blinky Lights

SFP Media Buddy

April 28, 2025

This is the SFP Media Buddy. It’s amazing.

It may look like a weird Raspberry Pi, and it really does, but this allows you to rescue your WAS110 SFP stick back to default settings using just Putty and a serial connection.

Bear in mind, I had no idea how to do this, I was completely flummoxed until getting in touch with the 8311 community and going step by step to resolve my issue.

This board was like $60 but fixed the issues I was having with my WAS110 and allowed me to get almost a 50% boost in my internet speeds.

Thank you so much to both Whinis and the 8311 community for their help with fixing my fuck ups, I will treasure this little board forever.

Thank you.

Introduction
I am just a guy who loves Unifi products. I mean, it's great, right? Expensive but it does the job. And gosh-darn it, every generation of products they produce have just more and more blinky lights, and even next-gen GLOWY lights! Amazing. Just my journey through the Unifi Universe.
