hi,
doesn't know this had been mention before or not, as i read from athena and klseet site, i was told that dlink used vlan tagging 500 for Internet and 600 for Iptv.

I just do a quick search on dlink 615 and found that this are the setting:
WAN connection 1: VLAN ID 500
WAN connection 2: VLAN ID 600
WAN connection 3: VLAN ID 400
WAN connection 4: VLAN ID 209

and only connection 1 and 2 are enable. And LAN port 4 is mapped to VLAN 600. Does that meant that i can just changed the map port to other port like LAN2??

From the configuration, it don't really show that TM really did any custom firmware hardcoding, unless the original DIR-615 don't have vlan tagging function.

lol..

installed on the first day my router already need to restart due unable to get connection

Unifi list: ckboon - VIP5

bro,

i would like to know what the different between the stock and unifi firmware for tp-link. Does the unifi version had an option for vlan tagging and port mapping like what we see on dir-615? (I am not sure whether the stock dir-615 has this option or not, but the one came from TM has it).

meaning it had been hard-coded to the port, or just auto configure the setting for us to save all the trouble.

oh.. so we can't change the vlan tag from the unit itself? as what i can see from dir-615, we can meddle with the vlan tag and port mapping as it's 1 of the option in the box.

so the tp-link firmware is still under beta testing and not finalize yet?

another question, the huawei (black color) BTU got 4 LAN port, what can we do with the rest of the port? Was thinking of using the port as well, is it possible? and anyone know the default user and password for the box as i would like to go in and have a look on what can be configure there.

thanks...

no need

unifi is still under tm and it's considered as a migration to a higher package.

i've terminated my streamyx combo package which still have 1.5years contract without any cost.

ohh...
unipack..
try call 100 then 1-300-88-1221

oh... got it. Microtik is not in my mind at the moment as those are just manageable switch and I still need a router to do the dial up job. Sad enough i got 2 units of wireless router which is a 3-in-1(modem-router-wifi) , hence they can't be used with micro, as they dont have any WAN port for external connection and still i need to get another router, and using back DIR-615 will be a silly choice, unless running it on DDWRT, then again if problem arise TM will put the blame on us although it might not be our problem! Then in the end i still needa get a Wireless router , that's why TP-link 841 come to my minds as it can settle most of the problem and replacement the dumb DIR-615. Just as a precaution step in need know more about the product first before i really go and get it.

now 841 comes with 2 model, N and ND, which N (fix antenna) and ND( removal antenna), i assumed both are running on the same type of firmware, and which model should i get? as in sense of which is the latest model? N or ND?

Added on May 19, 2011, 12:24 pmcan we revert DDWRT back to default TM firmware? as from athena site, i only see 7.05 ver and not 7.09

and the weird thing is that, i tried to search for DIR-615 G1/G2 on official dlink.com.my site and it show nothing on this model. The site only had the black color unit, whereas we are using the orange color. Does TM changed the color of the unit to fit their logo color, or it's a very very old school model from dlink that they don't even care to support on it anymore.

mine can reach 2 storey

the firewall need to have vlan function, as unifi will only recognize vlan500 for internet(ppoe), and vlan600 for iptv

Added on May 19, 2011, 2:13 pmu can either bridge ur firewall and connect it to DIR-615 or make a double nating, if the firewall don't have any vlan function

add repeater/ap

wha, like tat also can. If i've know it earlier i won't have to wait for 2months!

i don't think it had vlan function. For the dialing part, if you are able to see an option for PPOE then it should be able to dial. U can use klseet suggestion here : http://klseet.com/index.php?option=com_con...e&id=6&Itemid=4 to replace the dlink DIR-615.


BTU -> microtik (Vlan 500) -> fortigate (setup up the PPOE)
(Vlan 600) -> iptv

http://www.landasan.com.my/mikrotik/

then u need to create VLAN ID 500 for the PPOE and map the LAN to it.

just change the vlan ID to 500 on wan2 and dial in to unifi

WAN to LAN is called NAT-ing

port mapping meant u map the port to a certain vlan, i assume that u r not using iptv, so just leave the port map aside should be ok. by default, all port are configure to be vlan 1.

Added on May 19, 2011, 4:59 pmstock is dlink then getting a dlink is recommended. other brand also will work, just get the advise from the PC shop as they will know better.

both VIP and BIZ is just the same..

i got a customer apply for BIZ and port 4 is also tag to vlan600, the only different is the price and BIZ dont have iptv box!

bro,
it's all fiber.... up to BTU.. then only cat5

it's better still if we can totally replace the TM solution including the modem itself...

hope someone will come out with a solution for that... but it will be expensive as it need to have a fiber port..

i meant like those 3-1 modem router wifi stuff for streamyx..
and hell ya, as i mention it will be expensive! AFAIK only from those type of model we can monitor the download and upload speed directly.
