I am subscribing to MAXIS FIBRE Internet with VOIP and Astro IPTV, can someone advise which router can replace the crappy Thompson Router the supplied by MAXIS?

I am planning to get a RT-AC68U, not sure those sold in Lazada.com will work with MAXIS FIBRE?

Thanks in advance.

It's still the same as the units sold in Lowyat Plaza.
Once you bought them, just flash to the latest firmware.

Hi sHawTY,
Thanks for your reply, my concern is some of those routers selling in lazada are from overseas, chances are they may not have the local firmware with option to select "Special Requirement from ISP" like show in this video ( https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=iBRbk1FSFj0 ).

If at all this option aren't there, do you know how can I flash to the localized firmware?

Thanks.

No such thing.
I bought my RT-AC68U from the US (through eBay) & the original firmware inside the router work perfectly with UniFi.
I didn't even have to flash to the latest firmware first.
The UniFi mode is already there.

Not using ASUS original firmware anymore.
Now using AsusWRT-Merlin & the UniFi mode is still there. smile.gif

And guess what? RMerlin (AsusWRT-Merlin creator) lives in Montreal, Canada.
