most websites are now using https by default.
And that’s great, but it also means that if you’re relying on poorly-behaved wifi networks, it can be hard to get online. Secure browsers and websites using https make it impossible for those wifi networks to send you to a login or payment page. Basically, those networks can’t tap into your connection just like attackers can’t.
So to get your brain-dead hotel, airport or other WiFi connection to work:

When your UniFi Cloud Key web interface shows this [Archive.is] after upgrading:
UniFi Controller is starting up…
Please wait a moment
Then you just ran into a bug which seems to occur most with 5.9.29 of the UniFi software: [Archive.is] “UniFi Controller is starting up…” “Please wait a moment” “5.9.29” – Google Search
The easiest way is to restore from a backup: this usually works.
For that you need ssh access, which usually is with the ubnt user. But you could have made life more complicated when you followed these:
Steps from [WayBack] UniFi Controller is starting up… Please Wait A Moment – Ubiquiti Networks Community (thanks [Archive.is] About mrfoxdk – Ubiquiti Networks Community!):
- SSH to the Unifi CloudKey
dpkg -P unifi- Open a browser and browse the URL of CloudKey
- Login
- Press “Install” under UniFi
- Wait for the process to complete, and then wait a bit for the service to be brought online.
- Recover the configuration backup from the latest backup
Step 2 above will purge the unifi software of the cloud key as per dpkg --help:

Seems my interest in Ubiquiti needs more research: [WayBack] Linus Torvalds – Google+: Working gadgets: Ubiquiti UniFi collection.
Hopefully by now I’ve time to re-design the WiFi coverage in the house and invest in a few of those access points.

Splitting 5Ghz and 2.4Ghz SSIDs: two ways (I think the second is cleaner)
For both the first and second one, you need to configure under “Config” -> “WLANs”.
For the second one, you can clone from the first, then change the SSID names.
