RB750/750G users & sifu out there,

Just setup rather basic dummy QoS based on Firewall Mangle & Queue Tree priority:
http://klseet.com/index.php?option=com_con...id=45&Itemid=42

Not sure whether this is the right direction, really need your expert advice/comment to make it better :
On the Layer7 thing, still not sure, my concern it's too complicated and it does take up while heavy resource on CPU....

On the Firewall part, thanks Riz for your sharing through PM, will need to check whether I have left out or overlook !
Appreciate others can advise/comment further on this section as well, thanks !

May I know if any Huawei HG655a VDSL user here actually bought a TL-WR841ND V7.x (with beta firmware) ?

I’ve been trying to seek for someone to help collect test data for TP-Link engineer to trouble-shoot, as I don’t have a HG655a with me, I’m still looking for a volunteer to perform this task.

Pre-requisite:
1. Currently using HG655a VDSL (high-rise)
2. Already bought a TL-WR841ND V7.x
3. Require a Ethernet hub and some cat cables
4. Prefer to have a WinXP computer
5. Use WireShark to capture data
6. Once confirmed, I’ll email the detail test scenario

I believe currently this is the only BTU that the beta firmware unable to work well, appreciate if someone out there is kind enough to help to improve the beta firmware and also help the community here, credit will definitely goes to you!

Please either PM or email me: klseet@gmail.com

Thanks in advance!

Guys, I believe some IT shops out there started to sell TL-WR841ND "pre-loaded" with the beta firmware.

I'm not sure whether those IT shops out there give any warning, please take note again, the beta firmware DOES NOT work properly on Huawei HG655a VDSL !

And that's the reason I'm looking for a volunteer to help collect data for further trouble-shooting !

If you bought a unit without the beta firmware, you may download it from: http://www.4shared.com/file/QetQoguC/TL-WR841-UniFi.html

What BTU are you using? Can you use the phone if using DIR-615?

The VOIP vlan.400 is handled by the BTU, that beta firmware on the TL-WR841ND only handle vlan.500 & 600 for internet & IPTV, it should not affect VOIP.

I've downloaded about 110G through uTorrent since 1Feb, so far never encounter any slow down, everything seem to be ok!

Yeah, before they cap, download kuat-kuat now!

I haven't really decide whether to go Biz5 if they start capping as I really want the IPTV, such a dilemma ....

The only thing I hope they don't throttle P2P ....

Same here, been buying HDD to keep those downloaded stuff, really have no time to watch/enjoy it !

I guess eventually the cap may make me to "behave" a bit !

RB750/750G users & sifu:

Does anyone managed to update the latest version v4.16 on your RB base on WinBox method?

I can only upgrade through FTP method which I just posted here:
http://www.klseet.com/index.php?option=com...id=46&Itemid=43

Please comment/suggest further, thanks!


Walua-er, you are so damn lucky man, really can download gao-gao liao la!!

Win7 SP1 is out already, better go download the complete pack (32+64) quickly!

I'm using Win7 with latest WinBox, it always show "router disconnect" after I drag the file onto the File list, after re-login again, it only show the file with zero size.
I don't know what's wrong, suspecting either the Firewall rules or Services which I disabled .....

You may check the change log here:
http://www.mikrotik.com/download/CHANGELOG_4

It's recommended to upgrade newer Stable version when become available.

My WinBox is v2.2.18 on Win7 x32
connect using MAC address method
Are you using similar Firewall rules and did you disable all of those services?

Same here, no problem accessing sites that I want to visit.
I'm on 110x IP and using OpenDNS 208.67.222.222 & 208.67.220.220

I think TM screw up routing issue, again
Previously when I started to get 175x IP, there are few cases where I'm "located" in Kalimantan ...

That's why I always avoid 175x whenever possible!

Past few days uTorrent seem to be slow, speed up & down really vary, not sure whether it's the seeds problem or UniFi doing something .....
Just did some SpeedTest on my 110x IP seem to be ok:

To Washington



To Melbourne



To HongKong




Just get some torrents also seem to be ok even I already exceeded 60GB download this month:


Hope to maintain the same and get the extra 80GB soon
So I think there is no cap, yet,


But I noticed the following on my RB750 past few days:



It was all zero since I put-up those firewall rules on my RB750 2 weeks ago, not sure whether it's normal, or it's some kind of attack/hacking going on

I'm quite sure the download & upload speed is dedicated

Could it be your ftp server that limit it?

Try to get a torrent to re-confirm the download/upload speed or run some SpeedTest, it should be dedicated speed.

I monitored the UniFi bandwidth this month March 2011, using uTorrent to download mostly movies, TV series, etc.
I just want to re-confirm whether any speed deteriorating situation occur at different hours or any cap impose by TM.

However, I also noticed some kind of attacks, seem to be getting more & more:
http://klseet.com/index.php?option=com_con...id=65&Itemid=61

Not sure whether it's normal, too much torrents or the firewall need further tuning ...

I could be wrong, it seem 175x IP is still not stable & inconsistent, but overall the 175x is considered much better compared few months ago.
Previously when I get 175x I was located at Kalimantan or Brunei, situation seem to improve and now it seem located correctly in KL.

I still prefer 110x, it's more stable & consistent

Strange, why many of you guys have such low speed at night?
I'm sure there is no cap impose, yet!

Could it be the TM's exchange problem (again?!) or equipment?
Has anyone tested on other routers beside the DIR-615?

I just re-boot my router, seem like can only get 175x, but speed still seem ok :



Btw, RB750/750G users, RouterOS 5.0 is just available today !
Go download: http://www.mikrotik.com/download.html

Landed or high-rise? Location?

Yes, it's really stable & robust, except for few reboot, I never off it since Oct'10, still going strong after 409GB download in March'11 alone!

True also, can't catch all the fishes all the time, guess I have to ignore it & enjoy !

hmmmm, sound like PJ area exchanges got problem ?!
You guys are using DIR-615 or others?

It's barely after 1 year and now with so many users, especially in PJ area, are having slower connection problem at night.
Is it just isolated cases or general norm for PJ users?

I doubt it's due to increase of users, by right the package should be dedicated instead of shared bandwidth, furthermore we are talking SpeedTest locally. So TM's argument on "more users at night" really sound lame excuses, something must be wrong at their back end exchanges on these locations.

If TM still insist "more users at night", then what were they planning? Less than 10 UniFi users on each jalan/apartment/condo??
Sigh, now already like that, what will happen next years & after??

May be those who are affected should start to collect SpeedTest data (also include TM's own useless SpeedTest as they only recognise this) then write to MCMC directly, also to claim rebate.
