the line here is miserable. Can't even stream proper video. Even on 8mbps, you got to restart the router till kingdom come to get a good set of IP range.

Actually its because they only make money for 24 month, 12 month rm 149 not enough to cover the cost of delivering you the service.

But sure, if you want to believe that the 2 year contract which has been in effect for 4 years or so already is because they plan to lower price soon, up to you =)

you need to have actual competition to even logically have lower prices ....

just cause another country is offering cheaper broadband, as long as they don't provide the service here then of course they won't reduce prices here ..... it's been this way for a long time now ....

i've been using 10mbps unifi for a long while now, and i'm more or less satisfied with the service. but i still think we a gouged by over paying for our service compared to most modern countries rolleyes.gif

actually i'm on 10mbps. i refuse to go 20mbps seeing as i don't use netflix so i don't need that capacity for 4k streaming. could however be useful for my twitch streaming i guess, but 10mbps has worked ok for me so far.

Hi guys.

I just install VIP10 last month. The problem i'm facing now is the wireless connection. Sometimes it show no internet access but my hypp tv and lan connection are doing fine. Is there any solution to this problem rather than change the router? Btw, my router model is TRG212M.

Thanks you.

Using vip10 in 2-storey house, modem router at downstairs living hall. Rooms upstairs get weak wifi signal, will those wifi range extender wall plugs help boost the signal upstairs? I do not intend to change the default unifi equipment yet.

I got a home plug and cheaper wireless access point. Settle the case. Sometimes wireless extended doesn't help

For me I used ASUS RT-N12HP as Range Extender solved my problem. Only cost me RM165 bought at Lowyat Plaza 2 weeks ago. Went back again and bought another unit for my brother as well.

Guys, just wanna ask your opinion.

I've been using unifi with a TP-Link TL-WR841ND and a wireless repeater Aztech WL559e.

My room upstairs is basically the furthest place from the router which is located at the living room next to the tv. Even with this setup is not super ideal but I'm still getting acceptable speeds. Without the repeater it's almost impossible to stay connected.

I put the repeater upstairs outside my room and it's only getting one bar. On the manual is recommended to put it at a place that at least 2 bar but no matter where I put it upstairs it's still one bar.

I've tried switching channel and all but theres no difference. Home plug doesn't work because my house is 3 phase wiring.

Recently I've been looking at the asus RT-N14UHP. I wanna ask is there a difference compared to the tp link router? On paper it seems better but in real life application does it really has a high wireless coverage?

RM289 can get you ASUS RT-N14UHP
http://www.asus.com/Networking/RTN14UHP/

But if you're willing to add a little extra, I'd suggest RT-N18U.

i dunno tplink but for your case which is similar to mine - router at one corner downstairs and need wifi at the furthest corners upstairs, even my rt n12hp @rm199 can do the job. i hv 1 pc downstairs far corner and 2 android players upstairs far corners, all working fine on wifi.

for typical 2-sty house, no need for homeplug or repeater. rt n14uhp will probably do an even better job.

In my brother case, there was no coverage in his master bedroom and whole ground floor as his Unifi stock router was placed at his study room cum office which is located at the back-end of his second floor. With the ASUS RT-N12HP placed at the staircase corridoor (2nd floor), I can have full semi-d coverage (1,000 sq feet x 2) now when assigned the ASUS router as repeater / range extender.

Install wifi detector app (WiFi Overview 360 Pro) in your android handphone, you can have better idea how weak your wifi signal around your house and with this info handy, you can place your repeater at the strategic location in your house for optimum coverage.

Yes you can. Hook it up to your modem there you go as Router, AP or Repeater.
