oh really? how much is the package subscription without Unifi?

Just pm me when you're free.

Hi mztang52, just installed unifi today and given DIR-850L router. I tried to set up another SSID with IPTV but hypptv STB keeps saying authentication failed. Any idea why? Can you please help me?

Thanks!

I'd been looking for a guide online to set up the UniFi HyppTV Set Top Box EC6106V5 to connect wirelessly without spending extra money to buy a pair of HomePlugs as HyppTV STB EC6106V5 has already got WiFi built in to the box, you only need to go to the settings to enable it to connect to your WiFi network. Unfortunately, there isn't much helpful information I could get from the internet, so I decided to go through all the settings in the router myself to find out if there is any possibilities to do so, and finally I found that IT'S ALL POSSIBLE!!! So now I can have my router in one room, and HyppTV STB and TV in another without having to buy any extra hardware as long as it's within the WiFi coverage range.

After the successful attempt, I feel like I should share this to others, so you all can save some money and place your TV set wherever you want.

I will skip the steps to enabling and connecting to WiFi network in the Set Top Box as it's already available on the internet for quite some time. So I'll go straight to the point, and below is the step by step set up guide. 

1. Log in to your UniFi router, username and password is readily available online.

2. Go to Wireless tab and then SSID Configuration, enable second SSID in the list by clicking the Edit button.



3. In the VAP configuration page, tick the Enabled VAP box to enable second SSID, and you can enter your own SSID name in the SSID box. Under Wireless Security, you need to select WPA-PSK as authentication, as WPA2-PSK won't work in streaming the IPTV signal. Under Enabled WPA, select TKIP as the Key Type, AES will work too, but I find TKIP having a smoother streaming result. Don't forget to enter your own Preshared Key too. 

Edit (30/11/2015): I've tried to use the so-called 'mixed mode' WPA-PSK/WPA2-PSK Authentication with TKIP + AES Key Type without any streaming issue so far. With these settings, it should give better security to your WiFi network.

Edit (04/12/2015): WPA2-PSK Authentication is actually WORKING for streaming IPTV signal, I've so far tried both WPA-PSK and WPA2-PSK with all Key Types combinations available in the router's settings, some combinations have better streaming results than the others, so you might try out yourself to find the best one for your network conditions. Still not sure why it didn't work the first time when I set up the SSID2. 



4. Click Submit button at the bottom of the page to save settings.

5. Now go to Setup tab and then WAN Configuration, edit the connection with VLAN ID 600. It's the notepad icon with a pen on it, NOT the icon looks like a recycle bin. 



6. In WAN Connection settings, under Port Binding, tick the box SSID2 for WLAN Port.



6. Click Apply button to save settings, and Viola! you can now stream your HyppTV content wirelessly when connecting to this new SSID!

Please note that this is only for streaming HyppTV contents, browsing internet with the browser won't work in this configuration. The new STB EC6108V8 should work with the similar settings, but not tested myself. Hope you guys enjoy it. 

Any wireless router that can support wireless port binding?

Mikrotik

Any model will do? Example RB941? Thanks.

Is the programming above by nzuser done on a computer or a TV?

Should be on a computer. But I'm wondering whether the contractors or technicians know how to configure it. Or do I need to do it myself?

Can somebody help to check is this the correct wiring connection for my wall LAN jack.
Thanks.

This is the color code for T568a & T568b wiring color code.
Look like the developer wiring man mix the wiring connection for T568a & T568b.

Problem is there are no connection from my hypptv & router port 4 (connection through wall lan jack).
Is this the causes?

I have corrected the connection by connect both wall lan rj45 jacket based on B standard.
Tested with my pc, it work.

However when I connect to hypptv, the setting for DCHP show cable connected, but there is an " !" on the icon & fail to turn on the hypptv.

Strange is that when I connect the lan cable directly from my modem lan port 4 to hypptv lan port, it work
This show that hypptv cannot connect through wall to wall jacket.

Did somebody experience this before? Thanks.
...

Yes, no switches in between.
First I suspect the jack or cables between both jack, but after I tested with my pc, it works.
I did call telekom before, they said hypptv need to connect directly.

Is this related to hypptv stb setting or cable type?
