like to make a note here about this asus rt n12hp router...

today, i shutdown everything incl unifi modem and asus router to replace a power panel .

when i start them up again, the modem showed no signs of connecting anything as seen with the lights.

tried 3 times power down n up, no result.

then i put back the old unifi router, everything connected.

lastly, with modem still on, shut down the old router, replace with asus, power it up, all is ok.

anyone has an explanation for this? hmm.gif

means i mustn't junk the old router yet! blush.gif

What is the brand/model of your old router?

Mine is the Innatech RG4332.

I better not throw it away just in case. biggrin.gif

Guys, i may be out of topic, but hope to get some assistance. i have the ASUS RT-N14UHP (3 antenna) - 3 of them. just replaced one with the Unifi modem. it's so easy and works flawlessly speed and better coverage.

My issue is the report. My management is asking 'how many wifi's are connected' ? simple ques indeed, i went to Wireless log under system log, it shows a whole list of log file.. but hard for me know which is 'currently connected to wifi'...

anyone tried to see that log before?
the old D-link router shows the wifi client connected, easy just take the figure and put in report tongue.gif

Installed Unifi last month. But the wifi coverage suck big time.....
Modern and router are at the family hall on 1st floor. Signal lost in the room and ground floor.
TM net came fixed but still the same. TM knew about this issue, lots of new users are facing the same problem with the new router RG4332.

Which one should i go for? RT N14UHP or RT N12HP?

for 2 storey houses, no need big and costly ones, ethernet or wifi.
the tm router is ok but not good enough if you stretch it.
consider rt n12hp - i changed to this 3 months ago. get unifi's full speed all the time. as i write , torrenting 1.1 MBps. wifi smile.gif
the 14uhp has the advantage of 5ghz option (good for highrise plenty wifi users crowding) and usb port for printer, downlds, etc... i think.
what's so difficult to set up? 5 min job!

this model works well for unifi incl voip and hypptv.

not sure, so i think u shud check out the main asus thread and ask if it works with maxis fiber, voip and astro iptv.

don't buy something that isn't compatible!

2.4 ghz is the normal frequency used for wifi. becos it is common, in highrise, u get a lot of people in neighboring units on same floor, upper floor, lower floor using it. that causes wifi congestion, even for all 10 or 14 channels available.

with another freq 5ghz, u get away from them. problem is higher freq comes with higher attenuation meaning power loss, so u should want a higher power dual band if u really want 5ghz. otherwise, it is only good for short distances.

for houses, less neighbors using wifi, 2.4ghz is good, wider enough coverage without congestion using a decent wireless router.

the problem with the router provided for unifi is choppy connection especially when in the upstairs rooms (router is the main hall area)

Despite changing the settings to only 20MHz bandwidth, still no success.

Anyone experienced using n12hp as extender mode? Is it ok? I'm now using n56u and the coverage for upstairs is bad. Thinking to use it to extend my n56u signals.
