I note that wired repeaters are always the best.

But my current situation does not allow me to do so laugh.gif

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 laugh.gif

If really cannot then no choice but go wifi repeaters. My uncle's house uses 4 Mikrotiks, one is the main router/AP and 3 more as WDS repeaters. Works quite well. In addition to that, 2 more Mikrotiks as a WiFi bridge just for the HyppTV. Walking into his house is like walking into a microwave oven. :-)

How about Homeplug? Maybe can try that. I'm using Aztech 500mbps Homeplugs from my router located upstairs to my HyppTV downstairs. Very stable. HyppTV only require max 10mbps to perform nicely. When I installed them I did a quick file transfer test and got about 350mbps sustained through the homeplugs. My house is old and is single-phase electricity so it's OK. 3-phase supply may pose problems if the power sockets are on different phases.

As for the Mini, just look in the trade zone, should be a few there.

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

Sure, it's for everyone, even those who are just curious. You can register here:
http://mum.mikrotik.com/

It's free btw.

Oh but don't get your hopes too high for the free routerboard. This is the email I received Jan 14, it's only free for the next 100 registrations. Probably all gone by now. :-(

like i mentioned before the upload speed upgrade is not official yet.

As per commercial offering it still mentioned 5 Mbps and 10 Mbps upload speed.

They are in the midst of updating the speed profile in stages.

So for those who don't get the upgrade yet.

Be PATIENT smile.gif

At least for two years. After that nobody knows and I don't think I will still stick to 30Mbps after two years. laugh.gif

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?

Agreed, they're quite hard to configure. Everything had to be done manually. It was quite a pain. A single mispelling would prevent things from working. Things are getting better though. Last year Mikrotik introduced QuickSet which simplified the setup a lot. I did a little guide for setting up UniFi with QuickSet which cuts down on the number of steps.
https://forum.lowyat.net/index.php?showtopi...&#entry78327719

Not sure about AC. Still waiting for their consumer oriented AC hardware to come out. But I remember I had a lot of complaints about the wifi performance of the RB751U-2HnD which was my first Mikrotik router about 2 years ago. I actually found the DIR-615 to be better. However, over the last 2 years, wifi has improved a lot through firmware upgrades. Current RB951 models and the RB2011UAS-2HnD that I use are pretty good.

I was previously using vip 10 and I called to upgrade to 30mbps advance. The customer service told me the price will resume to normal which is RM 199 after the contract is ended.

Contract is 2 years, so just enjoy the current rates, most likely there will be better promos in 2 years time.

I dunno why. When I tried at my uncle's house, power socket at upstairs hall to socket in bedroom on the same floor just didnt't wanna work reliably for HyppTV.It works ok half the time then starts to jerk and pixelate. The connection LED sometimes amber, sometimes red. Never get green.
