Good news, congrats. Can you share the method with some of us who is less technical savvy?

Can anyone tapau RB250GS for me too? or organize bulk purchase?

I had mine swapped last Monday. This morning, it's toast! No LED except the blue one on the side...

It's like 1 replacement per week... damn, I'm losing my patience...

I believe there are more reading need to be done on your side 1st before we can even help to explain on what is suppose to be done. The Wikipedia should have all the basic read up on what is a router and it's purpose in the network environment as well as other devices which are being discuss over this thread.

I would say that most of the guides which was given by rizvanrp, me and others are well understandable with some moderate experience with network terminology or at least know how to setup a basic default factory firmware router around in our current Malaysia IT hardware retail market.

Spotted cable work for UniFi just now at Klang, the Bak Kut Teh area (Batu Tiga if I'm not mistaken).

wait, i do not have the device or Unifi yet. (*still waiting them, 1 week already, 1 more week to go) So I have noidea about how to play those toys yet for now.

So up until now it is not possible for us to connect conventionally from regular router to BTU just for internet only?

we still have to use your pppoE style with NAT issue once a while?

Oh dear. The replacement unit I got on Monday seems to be working fine so far. Didn't need to rest it (off and on) yet. Keeping my fingers crossed that it stays that way. Btw, my entire set up is on 24-7 but I'm not a heavy downloader

My 1st issue with Unifi is that the fiber comes from the back of my house. They cant pull it over to the front as its too high so entry via back into the PC room. Gaming devices and TV in the hall Gah....

Sorry, didn't really read previous threads .. when you said WAN PPPoE profile, does it mean that you made the BTU as a router? Is there anyway that we could use LAN2 as a network bridge or something? I mean, all the non-IPTV traffic going to LAN2 while only IPTV traffic going to LAN1? I couldn't find any english manual on the net, there is one in Chinese .. but surely, I don't understand it at all

For me, my WZR-HP-G300NH is currently running on DD-WRT and I guess my backup will be to set it up as per rizvanrp's DIR-615/DD-WRT.

Just pray hard that you will be lucky enough to get the Huawei GPON BTU instead of the ZTE, then at least you know you will still able to get connected to internet via my guide. Yes, the NAT issue will be there. Cause the way the current settings done on the BTU does not have the function to route TCP/UDP ports directly or in that case it don't even have the function for us to do TCP/UDP port forwardings.

The LAN's settings is all depends to your liking. For me I use LAN2 of the Huawei GPON BTU device, other people can use other ports on the device as well you don't have to follow my entire setup. But if you wanted to, of course there is no one stopping you on that .



The whole debate I've been seeing here is:-

1. I don't want to spend more to get a replacement unit for the DIR-615 H/W Version G1 from TM, so is there any cheaper/alternative to this?
2. I scared my DIR-615 H/W Version G1 from TM will go bonkers even before I got my UniFi setup.
3. I wish to use the IPTV, but I don't want to use it with the DIR-615 H/W Version G1 from TM. Also not willing to spend money to get a new hardware. Instead I wish to configure my current 3rd party router to work with the IPTV.

I believe all you guys really need to worry about is actually, making sure everything is working fine as it is and getting the speed that you are promise by TM when you subscribe to UniFi.

And the rest, just leave it to the god of IT hardware lulz...

Sorry if I just pour cold water into this thread XD

Haha.. okay, for now, everything works perfectly for me .. so, I just pray that the DIR-615 doesn't die on me so soon until Buffalo could come out with the latest DD-WRT which works with VLAN & VLAN tagging

There are getting more and more ppl signing up for the Unifi service.

In fact, when I called TM at 6:30pm yesterday, to enquire for the installation appointment, the earliest date available is on 1st Sept. Today at 2pm I called to fix the appointment, the earliest available date is 2nd Sept . I also been told there will be no installation from the 7th to 12 th Sept due to Raya holiday. The installation charges will be imposed from the 16th Sept onward. Better hurry if you're still deciding to use Unifi.

How much installation charges will be impose by TM after 16th Sep 2010?

u sure they can't? They manage to pull from the back (underground) to my roof and into my room which is situated on the top floor of a 2+1 house. But of course pulling further means you'll lose more speed.... 27db at the moment.....

Just got mine done this morning. They start around 9.30-10am or so until 1pm. Nicely done I'd say. I pray the router is a good one for me.

The Dlink router that TM gave me is still doing fine after 5 months not switched off. Doing occasional torrenting and not failing me YET. Hope it doesnt dies

Anyone tried use a second wireless router as range extender?

Let say I configure:
Router A -> Modem,
Router B -> Router A as wireless range extender
IPTV->Router B (wired)

How is the performance of the IPTV? Smooth?

Anybody with WRT54G/GS/GL with DD-WRT? It has the VLAN trunking, tagging and port assignment. I just realised that I've this in one of my boxes and got it out and installed DD-WRT just now .. its just that .. I don't understand how the assignment should be .. grr.. probably I could setup this router as a backup for the DIR-615.

Today just got my unifi ... i have 1 pc near the residential gateway which i use it to download stuff ... i have another pc in a reading room, apparently, both of these pc are using wireless usb connection.

The problem now is when the pc near my living room is downloading things, the pc in my reading room will not be able to surf the net. The web pages just never appear or sometimes, it will just load partially complete ...

what is wrong ar? is it because the RG can only serve 1 wireless connection at a time? how to fix this ?!?!?

Not sure of the details, but heard it just now.

My neighbour was on the trial package, so she got her unifi since may. So when the offer expires, she decided to maintain, but drop her speed from 20Mbps to 10Mbps.

This morning, a unifi bill came in, and she has to pay close to RM1.5k, for installation and decomissioning charges.

I'm waiting for her to reach home so i can find out more details. Anybody else hear about paying for installation fees?

Quick question. Those green dustbin look alikes, are they called FDCs (Fibre Drop Cabinets)? Just wondering.
