Hi,
Can anyone point me to a setup guide for setting up Time Fibre 300MB with Asus NT12 router please?
Thank you!

QUOTE(denimblue @ Jun 4 2016, 06:37 PM) Your mistake is using a Fast Ethernet router (ASUS RT-N12) which is constrained by 100Mbps LAN ports and 300Mbps wireless-N for Time Fibre 300Mbps. So you mean to say this router for LAN only goes up to 100mb and wireless 300mb?Please consider upgrading the RT-N12 to a gigabit dual-band AC router to optimize your Time Fibre 300Mbps connection.  QUOTE(tritonite @ Jun 4 2016, 06:43 PM) To be fair, he would still be at square one in terms of setting up TIME Fibre, regardless of which Asus router he has. I tried this way but after setup, my network icon has an exclamation mark on it.What he needs is the TIME Fibre equivalent of this YouTube video. Just surprised ASUS MY hasn't proactively done one already. Still, the steps are pretty similar. Just have to disregard that part about using the Unifi setup profile, and just do a generic one instead. This post has been edited by f1br3opt1c: Jun 4 2016, 06:53 PM |

QUOTE(denimblue @ Jun 4 2016, 06:54 PM) The RT-N12HP is still a fast Ethernet router constrained by 100Mbps LAN ports. Yea sorry i read your post wrongly lol. So if i were to still want to just set it up in the meantime while i shop for a new router soon, will i be able to do that? Because the D-LINK router that they provided me has unstable wifi connections and keep losing connection from time to time This post has been edited by f1br3opt1c: Jun 4 2016, 06:56 PM |

I tried with all the methods above once and all 3 times it did not work.A) Untick the 'Special Requirement from ISP' box B) Ticked the 'Special Requirement from ISP' box, and selected 'Manual' C) Ticked the 'Special Requirement from ISP' box, and selected 'None' This post has been edited by f1br3opt1c: Jun 4 2016, 06:59 PM |

QUOTE(denimblue @ Jun 4 2016, 07:00 PM) Of course you can continue to use your existing Fast Ethernet router in the meantime, while you look for an upgrade. What about the RTN56-U. Will this router do?Just don't expect 300Mbps speeds.  I would suggest the mid-range ASUS RT-AC55UHP which will cost you around RM570. |

QUOTE(denimblue @ Jun 4 2016, 07:42 PM) In the meantime, one more tip for you. Okay thanks for the tip. Will try it out in awhile and see if this works and update you If you are setting up your Time Fibre 300Mbps connection with the RT-N12HP, do a factory reset first BEFORE running the quick setup procedure for Time Fibre. This will reset all VLANs previously defined for Unifi. Time Fibre doesn't require VLANS. |

QUOTE(tritonite @ Jun 5 2016, 02:44 PM) Grats! What i just did was setup the Asus Router as a repeater. Since all the desktops in my house are connected via LAN cable, we were mostly facing wifi issues while using our smartphones. I'm assuming 100mb is more than sufficient for smartphones lol. This way i can hold off buying a new router until i really need one.NOW you can go and buy yourself a better router that will optimise the use of your 300Mbps package, and use the old one as an access point. |
