new routers... best to read some threads to get an idea which one suits u best, price, what other users say:
https://forum.lowyat.net/BroadbandUser-2-User
as replacement to unifi router, asus and tplink seem most popular.
which model, u need look into the details like what how many users, what devices, highrise or house, etc.
both are unifi ready, i.e. only simple steps required to configure for use.
the asus i bought, diy takes only 5 min after watching a youtube video.
if buying from shop, can ask shop people to preset as much as possible.
unifi password is required (not same as wifi pw) - u call unifi, they give to you after verification.
mangto tv or hitv, vast majority are in mandarin as they are china sites, not hongkong.
if a show is in mandarin, it is only mandarin, no dual language.
in mangotv/tv series or movies/hongkong, there is a limited selection of hongkong-canto shows. some of them are actually dubbed into mandarin too.
in hitv, canto is just as rare. if it is in canto, u see the title displayed with 粤语.
e.g. hitv/pptv/tv series/ancient costume, three kingdoms 2010 in page 15 is displayed as 三國粤语 which is a canto version.
三國 in page 26 is in mandarin. incidentally, the canto version can be viewed in hd/superhd, excellent, while the mandarin version is in sd only.

if one enjoy mandarin stuff, himedia's mangotv-hitv-livetv combo is excellent, probably the best around, can't ask for more.
if one wants canto stuff, answers include other paid iptv apps like cloudtv. or if on unifi, get the ruby pack which has several canto channels for hypptv but these are mainly live, not on-demand.
fyi, both hypptv everywhere and astro-on-the-go apks can also be installed on himedia. they work but the video quality no doubt is not as good as direct with the astro decoder or hypptv stb.
on livetv, lagging has always been an issue whether vip5 or vip10. my experience is with the right ip/dns, ethernet connection and a good router, the lagging is minimised. there are 4xx channels in livetv, i think. i only watch some of them. i find cctv channels, eastern, beijing, shenzhen, zhejiang and guangdong channels quite reliable. i don't get too much lag anymore. one trick u can try is if lagging, just exit, wait a few seconds, go back in. also, i find the time of the day n night matters. 7-10pm is usually poorer, probably peak hours, traffic congestion.
** all of the above applies to my experience with q5ii, may or may not apply to all himedia models (?).

it is not free. but has free trial. don't seems like got any virus. It is like a typical entertainment app.

once install, it will auto download MXPlayer if your device don't have the MXPlayer. then you can start enjoying watching the video with the Mxplayer.

got many latest English, Korean, Cantonese and Chinese movies and drama, guess mostly from the internet.

majority live tv not so stable, but some from US site ok.
