anyone managed to get this fix? I still cant

at least this thread is still active for live discussion. I bought 1 yesterday without knowing that it is having problem with Maxis... In a very stressful state at the moment... How i wish My AC68U is back from taiwan...

im trying to use for my Maxis fibre at home, it received the IP and server from maxis, but it is not receiving any packets...

i brick the C7 but unfortunately cant understand a single thing it said in this bricked version. OPENWRT... now i am trying to recover it back to factory.. seems impossible.

Nope, managed to fix it just now. It is back to TPLINK UI now. Haha. Now to try and set up the whole thing again afterwork

Managed to get it to work with my maxis fibre, except that now phone is not working. Until my ac68u comes back from taiwan, this will suffice.

u cannot use the latest one downloadable or the original one if your unit says it is compatible with maxis or unifi. It doesn't work.
I had to TFTP mine, change my pc ip to 192.168.1.66 and use the Archer C7 V2 firmware international one.

Then from there, you enter your PPPOE info then you must make changes to your VLAN.

Sorry guys, was pretty busy with work.

Well, basically it is quite complicated.
First you need to download the Archer C7v2 from an international web page. http://www.tp-link.com/lk/support/download...r+C7&version=V2
Do not download the ones from malaysia.
Make sure router is off.

After that you need to download a free TFTP software. http://www.solarwinds.com/products/freetoo...ftp_server.aspx

then make sure your router is WIRED(LAN) to your pc that you are going to do the setting with.

If you open the TFTP from you Local Hard Disk, in programs i think. Look for the tftp.
Then put the downloaded software in there and rename it to ArcherC7v2_tp_recovery.bin.

After doing so, change you IP to 192.168.1.66

Next you power on the router while holding down the reset button. The router itself will come up as 192.168.1.86, you can see this going on the TFTP log.

It should take a little while to transfer and then restart. (lights will flash)

After that, you open your Router setting from 192.168.1.1 or something else, after you restart your network card.

Do your PPPOE settings, wifi and all
Then you go to VLAN and change the settings to Maxis : Internet VLAN 621, VoIP to either VLAN821, VLAN822. Restart the router

Let me know if it works! mine did. Except still having problem with my VoIP
