Hi....I've a few questions regarding warranty claim for Asus Networking products:

1) If I buy a used Asus Router which is still under warranty but without the original receipt, can I claim the warranty from Asus service centre in case if something happen to the router?

2) Is it a "must" to have the original receipt to claim the warranty? Or would the warranty card / serial number would be enough to do the claim?

3) Can claim from Asus Msia if the product is an import from Asus Singapore or Taiwan?

For example, Western Digital can claim for a faulty hardisk without needing the original receipt. Can just check the warranty validity by using the hardisk serial number. Easy and excellent service customer service .

Not sure how good is Asus aftersale service especially when it comes to warranty claim coz all that I found/read was that Asus will ask you send it back to the original shop to claim the warranty . No problem if got receipt, but if buy 2nd hand and seller already loss the original receipt how? . Besides it would be time consuming if the customers have to ask the shop to claim warranty for you unless customers can get a new replacement on the spot. Whats the point of having a service centre if the customers can't straight away walk in and claim the warranty?

Hope someone can give some clarification.

Tq.

I assumed "wife" ---> wifi .

Your wifi adapter support wireless AC? PCI adapter or USB adapter?

When RT-AC87U will be available in the store?

Hi,

I cannot establish the Internet connection in my RT-AC66U (latest firmware) if I do not select ISP profile for the IPTV setting. Had tried restart both the router and unifi modem and even wait for half an hour for the connection to be establish...still can't connect to the WAN. No problem if I select Unifi-Home for the IPTV setting..

Is it my router that has a problem or the firmware was designed like that in order to establish WAN connection for unifi? I don't use hypptv and want LAN port 4 to be free for other devices..

Thanks for the answer . And i'm sure in the firmware, the ISP profile setting (Unifi-Home) can be design to set the PPPoE to interface only to VLAN500 (Internet) and has the option to disable VLAN600 (IPTV) and free up port 4 as a normal LAN port

You guys are right that switches are cheap and the simplest solution. But I (or maybe some other users) only need 4 LAN port (3 for use, 1 for spare) and don't want to waste my extension power point for a switch which indirectly can save electricity bill

I'm expecting to maximize the my money that I spent on a RM6++ device which IMO should has at least the option to use all 4 ports rather than only 3 ports were made available to other LAN devices that we want. Its like the customers were forced to allocate port 4 for IPTV eventhough in reality majority of them didn't even bother to watch hypptv

Nevermind...as i write these, i've found the solution to establish WAN connection while enabling port 4 for normal LAN usage.

Viewnet Loywat selling RT-AC87U for RM1199 . I assumed that will be the RRP for most of the shops?

Would have buy the RT-AC87U regardless of its price only if it was designed standing up like the RT-AC68U/66U. All of its ventilation holes are at the bottom and thats the dealbreaker for me..

AC3200 doesn't stand up as well and only 3x3 streams. I want a 4x4 streams RT-AC87U that can stand up..haha.

1) Go to IPv6
2) Connection type : Native
3) Interface : PPP

That's all. BTW u using stock Asus firmware or merlin firmware?

Your RT-AC87U will run cooler if it stands vertical like RT-AC68U.

DIY . Put it on a frame / souvenir stand or lean it againts the wall like I do.

Horizontal position:
2Ghz : > 52°c
5Ghz : > 65°c
CPU : > 80°c

Vertical position:
2Ghz : < 50°c
5Ghz : < 62°c
CPU : < 75°c
