QUOTE(ycs @ Jul 12 2016, 02:22 PM) is this 5GHz range better than asus? For 5GHz, the range is not really the issue but rather the poor wall penetration of 5Ghz radio wave especially on thick concrete walls. In empty hall or warehouse with clear line of sight, 5GHz can cover the distance almost as well as 2.4GHz. But the signal strength will deteriorate significantly if there is wall in between. Since the router is so cheap, you can use multiple units to cover each floor if you are staying in multi storey landed property with thick walls. |

QUOTE(irwan6179 @ Jul 12 2016, 02:47 PM) Are you still having problem flashing? I've finally managed to flash the router. The trick is to use IE instead of chrome when you first uploading the modified CFE file. When I did with chrome, after clicking submit, it right away turned into can't find network error. Then after several failures, I used IE and after click submit, it went into another page saying upload is successfull and it's rebooting. Once it's reboot, just go to the same 192.168.1.1 and it will show CFE mini server or something, instead of Huawei emergent. Then now you can upload the trx files from Asuswrt. Hope this help. Thanks for the tip!  You are right. I was using Chrome all these while. I will repeat the procedure using Edge and see. ( I am on Windows 10). |

QUOTE(Digifriend07 @ Jul 12 2016, 03:23 PM) Hi there, Bro, you're using IE what version? I'm not sure. The one coming with windows 8. By the way, I can concur that the 5G and 2G signal perform significantly better than following device: Tp-link C2 Tp-link C20 Mi Mini Mi Router 3 Even the power adapter is 3AMP. The router must be needing more power to have this kind of range. |

QUOTE(jpaul @ Jul 12 2016, 03:39 PM) Need to connect to my maxis cordless phone... Any solution ? at this point you still need your maxis all in one router, either you make the WS880 an access point or replace maxis device as the primary router. |
