3. After they install unifi, how can i change the unifi password?
4. After they install unifi, how can i change the wireless (WIFI password) such as WEP etc.... ?

Hi bro,

Intend to get VIP5 for my landed double storey house.

After tm install unifi in my house, what is the recommended things i should do to ensure the connections are all GOOD?
Is it to change to a better router?
Anything else i should do?

I just wanna make sure what ever i can do or upgrade is done, including upgrade the equipment they provided.

Pls help a noob in unifi.

To avoid massive wiring internal my house, i was thinking of putting all the equipments at my back store room, and connect my PC and Notebook using wifi.
The distance is about 15meter, dunno got problem or not?

Hi friend,

To upgrade the router, which brand and model is the best?
Kindly recommend pls.

Is this one of the best and reliable ones? TL-WR1043ND

Anyone here using Alcatel Lucent I-240G-P ?
TM install this instead of huawei today.

My default equipment are so far so good.
My notebook using wifi had been running for 5hours without disconnecting or any problems. Hope this last forever.


If everything runs smoothly, that would be great.

Hi bro.

TL-WA901ND compatible with unifi meh?
I thought only 841ND compatible?

1. If during thunderstorm and lightning, do we need to off power to BTU, router and deck phone??
2. Will lightning fry them??
3. Do we need to unplug the fiber optic wire going into the BTU ??


When using streamyx last time, we used to unplug telephone line entering into modem.

Anyone here using Aztech HomePlug HL110E to connect between your router to set up box ??

A friend told me his amazing set up:
He stay in his father's house, and his father does not want external wiring inside the house.

What he did was, the BTU, router etc is placed in the store room, then he install HomePlug to connect his STB and PC to the router which is a distance away.

He bought a pair of HomePlug device, each connected to router and PC/STB.


No need wiring at all.

To avoid massive wiring inside your house, u can use HomePlag device.
Basically, connect your router using rj45 to homeplug, plug into power socket, then another homeplug connect to PC.

Thats a good idea. Easier bro.

If we use HDMI cable, do we still need to plug in audio (right and left) cables?
I heard HDMI cable transmit both video and audio, is that true?

TQ bro for sharing.
Current means current month download and upload ?
