By default this indicator pings ping.ui.com. This subdomain simply resolves to the DNS services of Cloudflare and Google. If you don&#8217;t want these two providers to be contacted, or if the display is incorrect, you can configure a different DNS or remote site. To do this, click on the &#8220;Unifi Devices&#8221; list and then on the respective Dream Machine. On the tab that opens on the right side of the screen, navigate to &#8220;Settings&#8221;. There you can enter your own server under &#8220;Echo Server&#8221;.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/netguide.io\/network\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/10\/2026\/08\/unifi-dream-machine-ping-echo-settings-1-1024x333.png.webp\" alt=\"Unifi Dream Machine Echo Server setting for the Internet Health display\"\/><\/figure>\n<div id=\"netgu-273399606\" class=\"netgu-after-content netgu-entity-placement\"><script async src=\"\/\/pagead2.googlesyndication.com\/pagead\/js\/adsbygoogle.js?client=ca-pub-6258556257245998\" crossorigin=\"anonymous\"><\/script><ins class=\"adsbygoogle\" style=\"display:block;\" data-ad-client=\"ca-pub-6258556257245998\" \ndata-ad-slot=\"4559785002\" \ndata-ad-format=\"auto\"><\/ins>\n<script> \n(adsbygoogle = window.adsbygoogle || []).push({});
