No, I'm using a TP Link router
The funny thing is that I had previously the same type of box which I had set up for my niece, been running it for over a month at the same place before I handed over to her and that box did not disconnect by itself.
I have 2 other another boxes, MXQ Pro and ZIDOO X1 II, both running fine but then again both of these boxes are quite near the router. Is the Beelink MINI MXIII II prone to poor wifi reception? I'm subscribing unifi 30Mbps, I have run the speed test on the box and only got at best around 10Mbps. On my Note 4 at the same area, I've recorded full 30Mbps speed.

This one. Wow, price increased so much!! I bought on 12.12 for 202.65 after discount from actual price - 230.28. Plus, I have another 5% cash back from my credit card, so I paid less than RM 200.

Still got cheaper deal from other sellers: http://www.lazada.com.my/docooler-m9s-pro-...g-12472624.html and http://www.lazada.com.my/docooler-m9s-pro-...g-16684188.html

hmm.gif  We still can't rule out a home network issue and I take it that, running an Ethernet cable is not desirable based on the location. Could be, that location is considered a non-optimal area from your router. Example, there's a particular spot at my place (outskirts of the router's reach) where an iPad can retain a wifi connection but can't connect to the internet.... and after awhile, it will disconnect itself or I'm forced to manually disconnect it.. if I attempt manually connecting back to the network, it simply refuses, despite listing the same network as a selectable choice. Now, if I move closer to or stay in the same room as the router, this iPad suffers no such issues and will stay connected 24/7. On the other hand, internet works perfectly when using a Nexus tablet or smartphones in the same problematic location as the iPad.

So in a way, it could be the box or it's simply too far away from the router and suffers from too much interference. Issue persists while using the 2.4ghz network?
*
Yes, am using the 2.4ghz network.
I'll try to move the box to another closer location to see whether it will disconnects again.

Question: How to know whether my TP Link router is capable of 5ghz?
By the way, my TP link router should be about 4 to 5 years old. Not sure if it capable of 5ghz or not.
Let's say it is capable, does it runs concurrent 2.4 and 5ghz or do I need to set it?
What would be a good recommendation for a reasonable cost router capable of 2.4 + 5ghz network and also compatible to use with Hypptv?


QUOTE(AVFAN @ Dec 30 2016, 12:24 PM)
the problem u describe happens if the connectivity is consistently weak.

i assuming all of yr 3 boxes are on wifi.

u can swap them around to see if the problem is distance, line of sight or box hardware/firmware.


Thanks guys for your help!

my boxes, 30mbps, asus router - good connection at 50 ft.
*
Only 2 boxes on wifi, both in rooms. The one outside connects on ethernet cable.
Ya, I try to move it to another place to see if the problems persist or not.

in lazada, i trust both these 2 sellers: TomTop and TomNet.
bought things from them several times already, all delivered in 1 week.

netflix fullhd i think you need certain drm permission to watch, normally cheap android box can't do it if not mistaken.

Easiest way to find out is to Google the specs of your router.. If 5Ghz is listed....

Let's say it is capable, does it runs concurrent 2.4 and 5ghz or do I need to set it?

You'd have to set it.

What would be a good recommendation for a reasonable cost router capable of 2.4 + 5ghz network and also compatible to use with Hypptv?

Your idea of reasonable cost is different from mine.. Majority of the routers from a few years back are capable of handling both both 2.4GHz and 5GHz networks, independently or simultaneously. All routers are not equal and performance depends on your network environment and it's requirements. Visit the Networks and Broadband section for more. Can't discuss such here.

Sensitive item shipping fee quite reasonable for that one, which local courier do they use for that?
How's the service so far & can get item within a week or so?
