I don't think it works that way... Still have to use Unifi modem. Just get a router.

Dude, you should have researched on the hardware specs first before purchase. Also, the usb slot on default Unifi router is for diagnosis only.. Can't be used for data storage.

Haha.. Good one..

Sadly it is... Well, in addition to the already suggested RT-AC55UHP (More range), take a look at the cheaper RT-N18U model.

Hi...Perhaps, Asus dev team should add in such a feature to allow a non-admin account to access the Download Master area. Ultimate control over users & login credentials will always be with the Admin account. This is to help allow household members to have access to the download master without surrendering the admin login details.

Better careful though as Asus refuses to directly handle warranty claims. Always replies that you return to the seller & claim.. Saving a couple of RM might not be worth it later if you ever have issues & need to claim warranty. You can see from some of the previous posts that even some physical shops are problematic, much less Lazada.

Call customer service for login details.. You can try setting up the AC66U first to see if it'll work.

Seems like you ticked all the boxes and the performance simply sucks...

Counteroffer...... While the RT-N12HP might perform satisfactorily for your colleague... Are your environments identical? Cuz you should be looking at what works best inline with your requirements & environment. Unless you've already considered all that, decided on the RT-N12HP and simply want others to come support the decision. In which case, you probably shouldn't be asking in the first place.

Edit: Its a wise move to replace the stock TM router as its known to be problematic for some. Plus you'd get finer controls on your network.

Hey, you are welcome. By counteroffer, I meant my previous reply to be a response to yours...bla..bla.. . Also by identical environments, I was asking if your colleague's network environment is similar to yours. Things like landed or condo/apt, size, wireless range, routers nearby, occupied channels, walls, interference, etc... Cuz less interference usually results in better performance. I know of a pal who I think uses the RT-N12HP and he has no complaints. I'm unaware of a revised hardware (others may input here)... However, if budget allows, perhaps consider the RT-N14UHP instead?


I'm unsure, but as you've experienced... Don't expect much..

2.4GHz (More congested) range > 5GHz (Less congested) range. Want better reception, either stick to the 2.4GHz band or move the box closer to fully utilize the 5GHz band. Its normal.

Apologies if this question has been asked and answered before. However, I've been following this thread for months and do not recall an answer. How much would it hurt for ASUS to setup one or more locations or even use the preexisting service locations as receiver points for router warranty claims? Any particular reason that ASUS Malaysia simply refuses to directly deal with it? Perhaps keep a serial database like Samsung Malaysia, etc, for devices officially sold to the Malaysian market. I ask cuz sometimes, it's easier, cheaper & much less hassle to do the necessary research & purchase online than to walk into a physical store. While you do a fine job responding here on lowyat, providing proper warranty service to consumers will only increase our satisfaction & trust to purchase the products.

Preferably from a recognized dealer that will handle any warranty issues.. Very important.

Use a Wifi network channel scanner to search for the least crowded channel around you. Then manually change to that channel for best results.

TM recently increased it to 10 UP... Rolling out in stages among subscribers.

That's probably a Windows default icon.. Why so particular? Just screenshot & crop the image, save as icon & use away.. Alternatively surely, using Google images isn't too difficult.. Tons of router icons and images out there.. Take your pick..

Since Asus Malaysia STILL refuses to directly handle warranty claims.. You'll have to send it back to the seller.
