guys, i started using unifi vip5 today, but the wifi strength is v weak. my cctv technician said its due to the inferior quality of d-link router. change it and it would help significantly, is this correct ?

so i just use back my previous 5/6 years old router, linksys WRT54G ?

but the d-link is N series router, isnt it going to serve better than B/G router ?

sorry if this ques has been asked alot here.. no time to read backwards.

btw, wat did u guys get using Speedtest ? i got 4xxx kbps, USJ 9 area.

ASUS RT-N13U WIFI N 300 WITH USB SUPPORT 185
ASUS RT-N56U DUAL BAND WIFI ROUTER 479
TP-LINK TL-WR841 WIFI N 300 ROUTER 85
TP-LINK TL-SL2210WEB 8PORT VLAN SWITCH 239

got these from lowyat c-zone price list. tat means only the following product can replace unifi products ?

so if im to change the router to this -> TP-LINK TL-WR841 WIFI N 300 ROUTER 85, it would help me to get better strength and improve the speed ? or need to change the all-in-one asus but costs rm479 ?

thanks both of u.

yes iwanagp, searched through ur post and saw the picture. if the coverage and strength is improved, would the speed be faster too ? or not much different ?

given tat the router is a N series one, so i do need to have a N series adapter so tat it can work at its best ?

if N router connected to B/G adapter means 54mbps is the max rather than 300mbps as claimed?

so need to get a N series PCI-E adapter too ? sorry for noob questions.

yes, call my hp if the alarm is triggered then i can press some buttons on my keypad to switch off the alarm.

btw, i got a TPlink router today and followed all the steps to flash firmware n so on, but i do not know the password for my username@unifi account. or theres some default password ?

theres one wifi pin code on the blue colour paper tat the technician passed to me but i guess tats for wifi rite ? not my @unifi account password. anyway i tried with tat one but wont work. now im using back my old crappy dlink router. anyone would help ? thx

oh okay, but i should not have problem if i had flashed to the unifi custom firmware rite ?

i guess i'll need to call unifi hotline for my password problem. cannot change password for @unifi account in unifi website.

thx ! i tried to search for the email received from tm and all the passwords are in there.. thx bro
