I want to ask. If voice calls to TM numbers are free on Unifi, how about Fax rates? Is it free?

mine, using Dlink DIR-615. been using it for 4 months, really satisfied with unifi service

100% agree. For this price, it's really good value. The wifi is also quite good. The range is more or less the same as my 2009 Airport Extreme which I consider quite good already. And WDS seems to function quite well. So for RM180, you can have double the coverage.

You double ke mana?? Line of sight 600metres

FREAKIN slow now eh?

< 100kbs

Currently I am using the 4mbps package. Its not bad but of course P2P traffic is throttled. This means that my "Linux" distros downloaded from private sites are slow upon downloading although the seeders are seeding from dedicated servers or very high speed connections. Using VPN solves this, but there is an overhead of 50kb/s or so meaning the reported speed is around 450kb/s however, only 400kb/s of data is being transferred. Also, seeding back the "linux" distros through vpn is quite impossible because of the limitations of vpn. Not every peer would be connected to you.

This is a major hassle when it comes to private sites. Got a call from Tmnet last week offering an upgrade to my 4MBPS package and I said yes. Set the appointment to the 2nd of March (Friday) and hopefully everything would proceed as planned.

Took out an old Acer Machine, Aspire E500 (The whole casing has been discarded. I am just left with the mobo, cpu and RAM) . Replaced the stock cooler with a Hyper 212+. Installed Ubuntu Server onto a Pendrive (Patriot Xporter XT 8GB) and installed rtorrent + rutorrent.

Now, to hunt for a HDD and maybe a casing. Once Unifi is activated, my "FileServer" shall be running once again.

Couldn't do it previously because of the hassle of using linux , then connecting to a vpn server and then hoping for it to not disconnect etc. Hopefully with Unifi, nothing is throttled and it'll be as simple as plug and play.

Guys, I have 2 homes, 1 with 1Mbps streamyx and another with 4Mbps Streamyx. The one with 1Mbps is using Linksys WRT54GL router (connected to a TPlink adsl modem / router that acts as an adsl modem only) which is flashed with Vteck Tomato Firmware. The one with 4Mbps is using Streamyx's free wireless router. I noticed that at times after downloading, the connection would freeze and i have to either reset the ADSL modem or take out the phone line and put it back into the adsl modem. I don't think its the router's problem since I have used so many routers and the issue persist.

Is it the same with Unifi?

Nowhere lah, just saying only. But if you want long range LOS use RBSXT, PtP wifi 200mbps at 20+km.
http://routerboard.com/RBSXT

If want to use WDS, better use the latest non-UniFi FW, not sure whether the custom UniFi FW has broken the WDS bridge .....

Glad to know my messy+lousy documentation helps, am still junior, am still learning ....

Strange that the config file can't work on your RB750GL, it's been a while I didn't play with RB, also didn't update those config files properly, busy workload ..... I suspect may be different batch use different switch chip, so the port layout different ?

Do you have such up/down link speed on stock DIR-615?
I doubt it's the FW on RT-N16.

Try Factory Restore and goes back to .84
Setup QoS, it's working well on the new ASUSWRT compare to those previous FW blue colour with a rather annoying doctor FW ....

When I first got my UniFi in 2010, I was trying to link STB wirelessly, so I pull out some routers, started with 3,4,5,6MB/s, stock and/or 3rd party FW, all cannot work properly....

Got angry, so bought a pair of TL-WR941ND (that time Tl-WR1043ND still expensive), AES N-only, manage to get around 6~8MB/s, but image & switching channels still lag ...

I also notice on LAN, if stream 720P, around 6MB/s is sufficient, but when stream 1080P it just won't work even I can get 8~9MB/s, video/sound lag, frame drops ....

The IPTV uses less than 10Mbps, I really can't understand why it just won't stream properly wirelessly, not sure what went wrong, I presume it can perform better if can get beyond 9MB/s, or may be should use a pair of dual-band 450~600Mbps devices to run on 5Ghz band ... I gave up liao ....

Now that UniFi become popular, I can see my surrounding full of that Ralink DIR-615 signal channels flying everywhere....

Wifi is really complicated and strange, that's why I always go wired whenever possible, only use wifi for browsing & mobile devices.

20km share to whole kampung ppl meh~~ My home small small nia. Hometown there asus 54G router still running strong. Can access internet even after I cross the road outside. Better than DIR615 tm given I would say. heavy torrenting won't make it goes haywire too.

Maybe for the HD channels, I guess. Right now, TV8 is on and it seems to be using about 2.3mbps. Later, will try Luxe HD cos that's the only HD channel I have.

i second that.espacially from filehostings...

How you read that information? Thought you're using 841ND x 2??

anyone ever experience no dialing tone from the phone of unifi ?

unifi block torrent?
after install it... no connection sudah

=.=
lol

i wanna ask one question can i use DIR-615 be an AP for home ?

nice...thx. although klseet did say .96 FW cripples the iptv, rite? so i must downgrade to .84 or .74??

EDIT: .102 has just been released. damn...asus is fast. hopefully klseet can try it out to see if the problems are solved. then i can upgrade instead.

after several hours and days of troubleshooting, i've finally found the problem!

the BTU unit provided by TMnet is a load of crap honestly.

It crashes frequently

My home has 3 pcs, and all the of us use torrent 24/7

I tried switching off my torrent to reduce the strain on the BTU/Router

connection lasted longer but eventually crash.

When no one was home i tried disabling the Vtag 600 to reduce further straing on the router and btu

lasted, but once my bro came home he on his PC poof DC.

my suspect his torrent client..

asked him to close it and it hasn't dced since then.

the multiple source of concurrent global connection really strain the BTU unit...

sampai crash.. wtf..

Any replacement for the BTU?

honestly mines dying already,.

No, lah, I'm using RB750GL. The 2 x WR841ND is for my uncle. His DIR-615 cannot reach his patio in the front of the house. Come to think of it, I should have tried just one WR841ND first. But nevermind lah, for sure 2 of them will get the job done.

If you're port forwarding, you don't have to DMZ. If you DMZ, no need to port forward. Did you do your port forward correctly?

You're using DIR-615 right?
Let's say your CCTV is 192.168.0.200 and is running on port 80.


Are you testing from inside your own network? Because I think the DIR-615 dun have NAT loopback. You might have to test from outside. Or you can try using http://network-tools.com. Use the HTTP Headers option. If you are still connecting to the DIR-615 web page, it'll look like this.

If you're connecting to the cctv, chances are that it'll be different.

Added on February 26, 2012, 3:43 amThanks for the tip. The WR841ND already setup for my uncle. I don't think he'll be messing with it too much but at least now I know there's a solution for this problem.

btw, how's the range of the WR1043ND wifi compared to the WR841ND? Is it about the same?

One word. Unifi is way faster as its backbone right till user end is connected via fiber optics. U can't compare to 4mbps streamyx to unifi 5mbps. Alot... hell a lot of difference and no so far I never experience such issue as u explained with unifi.
