Use 5Ghz and make sure your device support Wireless AC.

Can I simply walk into tm requesting to change the old router to the new although nothing wrong with it? What is the best workable and acceptable excuse to use?
*
They will not entertain this kind of request normally especially if you are out of contract.

You have to go through CS.

Anyone else got the D-Link dual band router, the router is really up to the task compared to the other modem they gave. Wireless seems to be capped at 50/50 down/up though, no problem if local transfer. Very stable so far, but oversimplified menus they have. No QoS either.
*
Can you show me the interface of the router?

I have the non-TM version of DIR-850L. It comes with QoS and all the USB sharing features.

Yes it looks exactly like this, running on D-Link owns firmware but comes with unifi preconfigured. So no difference from what are you seeing there.
*
Great! At least it comes with QoS and some basic USB sharing feature that actually works.

My house is 2 storey terraced houseĀ  only.

The above recommendation is Overkill, yea i dun mind getting that but only 3 people are using the broadband.

Any other recommendation?

Asus RT-AC68U is a fine choice. Even the RT-AC55UHP is great. smile.gif

I compiled a list of routers with comparison here.

My Dlink DIR850L from TM sometimes "Internet Disconnected" but hyppTV and internet browsing are running normally when this error comes out... refresh the same page "http://192.168.0.1/Home.html" and it will show " Internet Connected", after sometimes same error will come back... any idea? confused.gif
*
Cache bug of the D-Link interface. Ignore it as long as your internet and HyppTV is working properly. biggrin.gif

QUOTE(OKLY @ May 20 2016, 02:57 PM)
How's the WiFi coverage of the new DIR-850L?
*
Nothing spectacular to be honest. Just what you should expect from a well-made router.

5Ghz is slightly to the weak side anyway.

I c.... weird problem... ya the internet and hypptv is working fine, but now the Internet connection LED also turned orange, previously is green..

Interesting, let's hope D-Link will fix the firmware bug soon.

QUOTE(Mr. AVM @ May 20 2016, 11:37 PM)
5GHz is weaker. Because the more bigger the GHz, the more weaker the signal would be. Lower frequencies tend to give wider signals compared to higher frequencies.
*
I understand the fact that the higher the frequency, the lower the signal penetration.

It is just that it is slightly weaker on the DIR-850L than competing routers in the same range. However, not a big issue. wink.gif

Just curious, how's would the contractor be installing the unifi in an apartment or condo?

i) Do they need to lay the fibre from somewhere?
ii) Do they need to hack or drill the wall?
iii) Roughly how long does it take for them to install everything?

Thank you.
*
For older apartments, they will just reuse your existing copper telephone wire unless your wire is in poor shape then they will pull a new wire. No hacking is required if they are reusing the old copper wire. It takes 1-2 hours normally.

New apartments should come with FTTH terminal in your unit. The installation is much faster in this case. Can be done in under an hour.

Just for reference, it may be different for your case.

Hi, yes, done ping results also (forgot to mention) it can't ping for that few second and then resume back to normal, issue happened intermittent, that the most headache part of the whole story

I dot think the redial will be so fast (it just lost the connection less than 10 seconds) i m pretty sure that the DSL light is there when the intermittent issue happened. Just afraid that is hardware issue, or can i call TM to do anything? i cant think of how to simplify above question into a simple request to TM CS (they surely cant digest on the whole issue) to see if the problem resolved?

Thanks! notworthy.gif  notworthy.gif

Are you using wireless or wired?

It is able to sustain 100Mbps performance provided that the signal is good. tongue.gif

Mine is not router issue or anything. Sigh. Looks like 28Mbps will not be good enough to make a complaint.

28Mbps is just some minor fluctuation in speed. Negligible difference. tongue.gif
