i think i'm using the bridge mode as said by muncheno (i'm really a noob). basically, i used cable to connect unifi router to the blue port in router 3. that enable my router 3 to have internet access.

i followed the vmware part.

using terminal on linux didnt work out for me.

Just to quick check here.
Anyone here configure their router as VPN server?

I have try configure as VPN server and DDNS using no-ip.com and I'm using Time Dot Com for my router and phone using celcom.

On the router setup, enable VPN server - PPTP, MS-CHAP-V2, MPPE-128, No - broadcast traffic. Then user setup to local ip to 192.168.1.245-192.168.1.254

Some how I can't connect from the client, from my android phone to my router via. celcom -> Mi-Mini Router (no-ip.com ddns).
I also have try with direct ip addresss.

I managed to configure my main router Mi-Mini to allow ftp, sftp, ssh, smb and also port forwarding to another Mi-3 router and android box with both running ftp, sftp, ssh and smb too.

No problem accessing them from internet (from phone or office wifi) including web gui from my Mi-3 router.

Dunno why it fail for VPN server. Any expert here can help?

Are you monitoring the commits here? https://bitbucket.org/padavan/rt-n56u/commits/all


There were a bunch of them...I ended up recompiling today...some may address your issue. Previously 09/24 was last commits showing so 10/16 onward were new and pushed in last couple of days. You can also monitor the open issues to see if your issue has been reported or open a new one. Keep in mind he provides ZERO support for the xiaomi version however if it's a general padavan issue he'd probably still address it. The padavan author is NOT the same person who wrote the prometheus script however the prometheus author DID have permission from the padavan author to do so.

Thanks for replying.

I didn't follow the commits because earlier I have read some of the commits before and he have mentions many times, if others than the designated devices he is not supporting.

You are compiling the router firmware on your own?
Are you following strictly to these instructions? https://bitbucket.org/padavan/rt-n56u/wiki/...wToMakeFirmware

Cheers.


Edit: Got the answer, you recompiling it with Prometheus scripts.
Once your Mi-3 is already with Padavan, it is okay to flash .trx compiled for Mi-3. I have tested the Mi-3 padavan firmware from http://plol.eu/how-to-install-a-full-spec-...mi-router-mini/ with build version aef4269.

Not recommended and may not work....again it flashes multiple partitions and you have no way of knowing if one of the other partitions needs an update for the new version you are flashing which the trx would not provide...I just let prometheus handle the flashing. Currently on 3.4.3.9-099_6f8655c

I have just compiled 3.4.3.9-099_6f8655c

Do you have any idea how to compile own padavan firmware for xiaomi mini?

Pretty sure the mini is one of the supported devices for the prometheus script...you have to use the option to delete your prometheus config then select the new device...build it's toolchain, firmware etc....You can always extract prometheus to a 2nd dir and select the mini for that one and keep them separate.

Thanks again for the clue.
It is easy enough with the Prometheus scripts.
Just delete the config and choose mi mini.
Then start build firmware again.

A quick question, how you managed to get 6f8655c?
I click check for updates but still stuck with aef4269

More than likely you picked the "stable version" as opposed to the "test" version.

Just for sharing, after I got my mini and mi-3 in padavan.
I being using firmware update from padavan to upgrade to latest firmware in .trx format.

So far so good didn't see much problem except VPN server.
For quick test which I could connect if my laptop or phone is connecting the router.
However when I connect thru broadband or office wifi, if fail to connect due unknown reason. It did passthru the phase to check username and password.

I did tried update the script to test version but the GIT still remain the old version. Not so sure wat went wrong.

You do always have the option to put the test script in a new folder and grab down source..basically start from scratch..it's what I did when I moved to test and I didn't have any issues.

Just to share that I'm able to use my xiaomi router mini connect straight from the BTU, all I did was unchecked the enable vlan trunk in the BTU, this will also causing u to lose the IPTV I guess.

I followed the instruction here, using ZTE ZXDSL 931DII BTU.

I have resolved the VPN server problem.
It happen to be my office and my celcom - is blocking the access to my home VPN.

Today I tried connected from other Time dot com line and it work perfectly. Thus my setup is okay, question is which isp is blocking the VPN, hopefully no problem with unifi <-> time.

Next experiment is to link with my parents home network.

hello guys, first of all I would like to thank to I<3LYN , muncheno for MI-3 guide and all of the forummers here.

i have this problem where my iptv would have no signal every 4 minutes. When I switch the channel, it will keep on streaming just for only 4 minutes. I have disabled IPv6 and used Google DNS (because last night when I used Automatic DNS, the stream is lagging)


Attached below, my config


Please help and thank you for your time

WAN Settings


VLAN Settings

Last night I reverted back to TM Router and exhibit the same problem so I assume the problem is at tm's part. Currently running back the Xiaomi Router 3

For those who lazy to build their own firmware.

Anyone facing any issue during partition backup?

My Mi Router 3 always fails a few checksums and cannot continue with the flashing

Thanks for the files.
