Can you do a test how is the WiFi coverage and performance compared to pandorabox?
I tried the latest openwrt chaos calmer, the WiFi really sucks compared to both official firmware and pandorabox.

the signal is definitely better than openwrt.. i say it is on par with PandoraBox/official firmware.

It is compiled with the  proprietary wifi driver as far as i know. hence the better performance compared with openwrt which is using generic driver.
are you using unifi? how did you get pandorabox running with unifi?  blink.gif

I am using it just for access point. My router still using tm provided dir-615 (running dd-wrt for ultimate stability)

i see.

Personally, i think it is better to use Xiaomi for the entire setup, since it has much better hardware ( and wifi? i don't know, i was using D-Link DIR614 and it is crap) . Otherwise it is a waste of the hardware to use it just as an AP.

Yea planning to install this custom firmware soon

The switch not even RM 100.

I prefer stock firmware.

Why would you comment on this thread then, when it's a custom firmware thread ?
Also why would we to need spend extra RM100 for a switch just for vlan tagging , when we already have a hardware capable of doing so.

yes ipv6 works fine, but you have to configure it.

I didn't play with QoS yet, the version that i had compiled doesn't have QoS enabled.

How to configure ? I was able to get ipv6 public ip but looks like there's something wrong with DHCPv6 because ipv6 test failed
