      Ok, in the meantime I'm trying https://unifi.xx.xx.xx.xx:8443 and not getting anything. Shouldn't that work?

                  Also your Vultr firewall should have the following ports open:

                  0_1513547681500_8AAAF992-723F-4BF9-8773-7DA26BB00399.jpeg

                      Ports are opened internally.

                            Thought I was okay, but can't log in using http, just https.

                            It's causing a problem when I try to set the AP's to look to the vultr IP for the controller.

                              You only login through https, your manually register the APs via port 8080.

                                        Question:

                                        At a colo: I have a Cloud Key, I want to "move" the controller (off the CK) to a vm.
                                        I've followed @JaredBusch install guide

                                        What's the proper procedure to make this move in the right order?

                                          1. Get everything on the same version
                                          2. Make a backupmfrom the cloud key and download it.
                                          3. Restore the backup to the VM.
