Yes, it has been taken off two days ago.

Be patient.

For about RM300, you can get a Mikrotik RB951Ui-2HnD. Very good router. I'm using its bigger brother, the RB2011UAS-2HnD.

For both the max wifi output is 30dBm or 1000mWatts. The RB951Ui has low gain antennas, good for covering multiple floors. If you're in a single storey abode then something with a higher gain antenna will be better.

Works fine with HyppTV too.

Lol bro you're really a hardcore mikrotik supporter. I'm waiting to migrate to mikrotik too once the hap ac is out haha.

I note that wired repeaters are always the best.

But my current situation does not allow me to do so

Where can I get the Mini?

Gonna probably get the lan cable, pull it as close as possible to my room and plug in the Xiaomi there

I use lan cable Cat-6 around 25 meters from main router upstair to my extended kitchen downtair, connecting the Access Point..able to get full speed...

make sure you use Cat-6 cable, as it capable of gigabite connection (up to 10 Gbite/sec)

Don't use the old Cat-5 (10/100 Mbps)

Is there any difference?

The 100Mbps still can't be fully utilised, Unifi currently max is 50 Mbps, which is just 50% of the Cat 5 capability.

Cat5e can go gigabit easily... and for home... you dont have that much of interference...

Conclusion : CAT 5e is sufficient

Yes, in terms of speed, Cat-5 and the later Cat-5e are able to handle up to 100Mbps. Infact Cat-5e is more than enough for normal internet use.

Cat-6 however has several advantages. It's got larger conductor size which provide less noise (attenuation), for this Cat 5e cable has a tendency to have a higher delay and skew than Cat 6 cable. Cat 5e may have a longer delay for the signal to get from one side to the other, which will give the appearance that it runs slower. This is particularly of importance for online gamers.

Another feature of Cat 6 cables is it has a very tight twist length to reduce crosstalk interference between pairs.

These properties of larger conductors, internal dividers, and tighter twist lengths delivers better performance and more capacity then Cat 5e.

If you plan to pull quite a lengthy Lan cable, you may want to consider Cat-6 cable. Otherwise Cat 5e is all you need.

Actually min req for gigabit 1000BaseT is Cat 5 cabling. Cat 5e works well and cheap. Cat 6 overkill for now but no harm in using it.

For 10GBaseT, I think you'll need Cat 6A.

Cat 5e can handle up to 100 meters. You can pull to your neighbour house if u want.

I just really appreciate their routers for the price and what it can do. Wouldn't want fellow LYNers to miss out on something good and it's easy to have not heard of it since they don't advertise, period.

Me too, waiting for the HAP AC. Are you going for the MUM (Mikrotik User Meeting) in KL next month? They're giving away free routerboard but dunno what it'll be. In 2014 in Istanbul, the freebie was an RB951G-2HnD.

But I've never used a mikrotik device before. Am I qualified to go? Am interested in attending though haha.

They are great for the price but it is incredibly hard for most people to configure it.

Powerful little device but I believe their Wireless AC hardware is still quite weak?

well well well, so for those who report during the web error have given a good reason to get higher upload. I think they have problem to catchup unifi users demand to get higher upload.

I know this maybe noob but does VIP5 package still available ? I need free call combo without breaking RM200 cost monthly

Seems like soyacincau and lowyat.net news about this upload speed has been taken down as well

Reported many times but same shit still happens about twice a week lol. Yup just mobile devices.

what about using direct connection thru lan cable with ur pc or laptop?
