Any router will work, since u mentioned Linksys, may be it is a good idea.

As for my I try not to buy routers,

I got like almost 10 routers & switches, modem in on my side. Noway I gonna spend money to add more junk. Gonna try reuse those old one hehe

hahahha

i got a Atom box sitting at home..running clearOS on it....waiting for unifi to come before i change the board to one that has PCIE and add 2 LAN cards to it....

The last I called Landasan 2 weeks ago, they are not selling RB250GS, RB750G got.
You may want to contact them to re-confirm again, also how much

I think so, even warranty claim [if got problem] should be easier ....

I always takut those custom, anything if they see new, sure they won't let you go .....
I remembered 2 months back I bought some network equipments from Shenzhen, the custom officer at AirAsia insisted must pay 15% tax!
If someone can "help" you guys bring into JB would be nice too ....

Is Linksys WRT120N workable?

Confirm will work. My ZTE BTU and DIR 615 are in my study. Using a pair of homeplugs, connected to the STB which is at my living room

May I know which homeplugs is recommended for the STB?

I have been trying to setup 2 wireless bridge connection for the STB but the result is very lagged....
Anyone managed to setup successfully?

Hi Richard912, thanks for reply and confirmation.

I intend to use Aztech Homeplug LAN 109E (200mbps), what homeplug are you using? Do you use second router (bridge from DIR-615), what's brand?

I'm using the exact thing except on one end (STB side) its a HL109EP (with plug point). No lags even for the HD channels.

Added on August 26, 2010, 3:52 pmHope the above answers your question. Note that using the Aztech homeplugs, I encountered no lag on the IPTV even when I was on full throttle on downloading I believe this is because Internet connection and IPTV connection are not sharing the same bandwidth

Is your house using 3 phase wiring / single phase. If it is a 3 phase,pls make sure it is the same phase. If not it will not work.

So you did not use bridge over to another router and using DIR-615 LAN ports or wireless to your PCs, will DIR-615 will be overloaded as I heard it's not very reliable.

My apartment is on single phase but I've heard before that it still works on 3 phase.

No my house is single phase and single consumer unit.

Not only that, you have to make sure it's from the same source, i.e. from the same consumer unit or distribution board; even if you are from the same phase but different consumer unit, I don't think it's work.

btw, anyone using tmnet wifi adaptor? is it good?

Update:

Just called http://www.landasan.com.my/. The sales man will explain and push his boss to get it fast after i story him about unifi stuff. and around 20 users interested.

he will get back to me next week about the price & approx need 1 month to bring it in. tentative price around RM150-200.

Unfortunately, my setup is still the "stock" version insofar as equipment is concerned. Essentially, the DIR 615 located in my study is connected via LAN 4 through Homeplug to the STB in my living room. LAN 3 is another homeplug connection to my mediaplayer in my bedroom, LAN used to connect my desktop in my study and LAN 1 to my NS in my study.

The current DIR 615 I am using is my second unit. The first kaputed a week after installation. And mind you, I'm not a heavy downloader although I keep the entire setup on 24-7

Hi,

I just joined the Unifi Club after much waiting and suspense and research on this very forum. You guys are providing great info here.

Anyway I used to be on Streamyx with 2 WRT54GL running DD-WRT (one running as a wireless bridge). Now I’m forced to use the Dlink 615 and I can immediately tell that during heavy sessions funny things happen. i.e. wireless would drop and after dropping I think the internal routing table gets screwed up.

Give you an example: I have a Media center box on Win 7 down staris on 192.168.0.106 initially I can RDP to the box from my PC upstairs after about 10 minutes of torrent traffic the wifi would drop and after reconnecting I will not be able to connect to my Media center via RDP. When I ping 192.168.0.106 I get no response from 192.168.0.103 (which does not exist), funny…

Anyway I’m keen to rid myself of the Shocking Orange DIR-615 and to even go back to my slower but super stable WRT54GL’s. Plus I really like the IPTV service.

I found this product:

http://www.netgear.com/products/business/s...hes/GS105E.aspx

Which would could be an alternative to the RB250GS as it also seems to have VLAN segmentation as well as monitoring. I intend to look at the documentation from netgear to see if setting up VLANs on this switch is as straightforward.

Other than the issue I face above, Unifi is fast, and I’m generally happy…. For now

I identified that product a while back but they're rather hard to find and have to be configured using a Windows based application I believe. RB250GS uses a web interface so any OS can configure it through the network without issues.

i wanna ask, if i connect a router/switch to the lan port of the dir-615 to make extra port for lan or better wifi, is it ok?

I am not heavy download user too, but I never switch off my existing Linksys WAG120N (Streamyx) router. So if that it's the case, do I need to buy 2nd router? What's your thought and recommendation?

Added on August 26, 2010, 4:39 pmOne my noob question, I am using iMac, is it complicated to setup UNIFI and does the software of routers, etc are Mac compatible? Does TM personnels are trained to help on different OS?

When I was on Streamyx, I had a Buffalo WHR-HP-G54 wifi router hooked up to a first generation ZTE ADSL modem which was never turned off and I had no problems with them. So, I've been following this thread closely in wait for a good alternative to completely replace the "sensitive" DIR 615. The sifus here have found a way to totally replace the DIR 615. So, I too will likely invest in a RB250GS. Pair it with a good wireless access point and everything will be good to go
