I just started UNIFI few weeks ago. The D-link DIR 615 router really suckz in term of range. Things got better after change the bandwidth to 20mhz only. The windsurfer made of aluminium doesn't really help in my case. Poor signal in first floor (double storey terrace)
Change the router to TP link WR841ND. The range is marginally better. -80 to -90 (1 or 2 bar) measured from Wifi Analyser (Android) at first floor. Hesitating to improve the range further by limiting the bandwidth to 20mhz or not, coz worrying this may compromise a bit on the speed.
what happened to my wr841nd was that, out of sudden, connection became slow, and when i reboot, it cannot connect anymore, all lights were there, no overheat, nothing, just like normal.. but in the status page it just showed connecting.. and timed out.
first i suspect it was the fiber box, although highly unlikely since it never went down for the past 3 years.. yes my line was never down for the past 3 years, not even for one day, i called up unifi tech center and they reset the line, still nothing.. so next day i bought this new asus rtn12hp, if not mistaken the model number.. so wallah, its connected now..
dunno when im going to throw this asus again, maybe not so soon since this one got 3 years warranty, was looking for linksys e2500 but all big2 shop in lowyat was out of stock.
