Why the regret? Though I may understand why. It seems slow.

The TM silk screened one that I have now is FW: v2.06 HW: B1. First thing that hits me is that web interface is really slow. Haven't really tested the 850L but for now I feel the RGX4400 is a better choice. I've been using the RGX4400 at a nearby coffee shop almost everyday. It's really fast. It can handle 20-30 typical kopi shop users with no probs at all.

I wonder how the 850L holds up.

I regret in the sense that I can probably get it free from TM instead of buying it myself. My silver TM TRG212M router is still within warranty. Maybe I can cry wolf and set up both of them to work in tandem rclxms.gif

I not sure about the RGX4400 but the DIR-850L comes with quite a lot of features for a basic router. Not to mention some basic but usable QoS.

Thanks, that's DLink's default right? I guess somewhere along the way TM had the stickers printed and routers reconfigured.

The best thing about DLink is the free ddns and not just any ddns, it's hosted by dyndns.org which is quite reputable.

For sure, get the TRG212M changed. I'm officially, as far as TM is concerned, still using my DIR-615, one of these days I will put it back online and complain about the slowness.

That's true, it's got a really nice web interface. Free dlinkddns from dyndns is always my favourite feature of DLink routers. The QoS by device look very simple to use.

Built-in AP mode selection is good for those just want to use it as an additional AP.

Shareport is very easy to setup but no FTP. It's webdav right? Must try it one day.

Lastly, they don't attempt to hide the PPPoE password. It's there when you need it.

Things I don't like about it so far. 1 x USB2 port, no FTP, no SNMP, no telnet, no SSH (but most ppl won't need the last 3), cannot change Admin username.

One day will test it to see how many connections it can take before dying. it has 128mb RAM but not sure how much of that is free.

Edit: No link lights for the ethernet ports. Why?

When you first got it, did you use it? Can it handle bittorrent well? I'm wondering how much free ram and hence connections that it can take.

I tried up to 300 connections (150 active) on a torrent, it works fine but slightly increased latency, like 8 to 20 or 30ms. But we entirely ban torrenting in house so it's not a common thing I use. biggrin.gif
I also tried updating my game, War Thunder which is known for its killer P2P updater, still works fine.

They do have Samba but the performance is quite slow. It is a very basic Wireless AC router, don't expect too much

Any pictures of the RGX4400.

If not anything else, it'll be useful as a dual-band AP. I mean it's free right?

I'll snap pics of it tomorrow but RGX4400 looks exactly the same as the RG4332 with additional one USB3 and one USB2 port at the back. It's the standard Innacomm silver box. I bought one from a forumer for RM50 but the one I've been using most is the one at the coffee shop. I'm so damn impressed with its performance. It doesn't have fancy features but it has SSH, telnet, FTP and even snmp. Not sure if it has SMB. Almost 90MB free ram on boot. The web interface is really fast. Basic looking but quite complete. Even has an ARP table. It reminds me of a Mikrotik. Maybe that's why I like it so much.

I know I keep on harping about snmp but I use it to monitor some routers and servers.

Most routers above are Mikrotiks. The one with only a few status box are not. They either don't have snmp or have snmp that don't work.

after so many derailed more than 50 pages, now v26 goes online...

feel itchy to upgrade unifi pro...but keep thinking suddenly tm given promo or what so ever later, rugi pula da bind 2 tahun...

my unifi advance 50Mbps start on November. so my services contract start on November to0, since I upgrade to unifi pro I tot my contract will be change too april 2016 but in the system still showing November 2015. don't let your hand itchy more laa....it will turn your hand to skinless because you scratch too much. biggrin.gif

My unqualified  2 cents here ...

Govt has allocated RMx billion in the budget to improve broadband in 2016. So can expect some improvement to the infrastructure for higher speed and some promotion to get more to ride on them.

Yes, this improvement-promotion pattern will repeat every x years and one can be waiting for ever if one does not get in. Ha.

My personal strategy is not to aim for the highest speed package as that will carry with it some hidden cost premium. Aim for the 2nd or 3rd highest speed if they are sufficient for your use.

Can't wait for my Unifi 30! A big jump for me from 8 to 30! Ha.
*
having my biggest jump ever after 12 years with 1Mbps. upgrade to 100Mbps. the hardnest gone. but its depends on how your wanted too.I think no hidden premium cost they just monopolized the market.

Erm, the system shows that way but they can see it from their system. Mine shows Dec 2014 the one I upgraded from VIP5 to VIP10. laugh.gif The reality is I upgraded again in July 2015.
