Ubiquiti is one of those ones I've never fully figured out, I really like their products but logging in using the ui.com account makes it seem like there's at least some aspect the relies on a cloud connection and therefore offers access from outside, maybe I just missed a setting to set everything to local login only, I dunno, don't have my Ubiquiti system up and running anymore.

You can still log in locally. The cloud version is so you can log in anywhere.

I use a cloud login so I can manage mine and friends network but you can do local only. Even without Internet I can login to my stuff still when I'm at home.
