QUOTE(junclj @ Oct 1 2018, 09:28 PM) are you sure it is about router problem? I am now with unifi turbo 500mbps but my speedtest result is 300mbps. I am considering that it is my router problem but still not 100% confirm. Currently is RT-AC55UHP, CPU reached to 100% when speedtest reach to 300mbps download speed. Most of the time steam download was just around 20MB/s. Feels like the router is not powerful enough. So I was ordered a RT-AC86U, hope will confirm soon whether is my line problem or router problem. read here for wifi speed: https://forum.lowyat.net/topic/4658454 QUOTE(muncheno @ Oct 1 2018, 09:35 PM) Update on LAN. Expected and good enough. Here's my speedtest using WS880 on unifi 500, this router still can handle the trafficDL 487 Mbps UL 458 Mbps https://www.speedtest.net/my-result/d/f6806...2f-845fcbc42893 |

Huawei WS880
380.62 Just noticed this afternoon that I can't access even google.com and a few other sites.Then I tried redcafe.net and the browser prompt me to install some app from gstatic or something. Checked the router, and in Advanced Settings > Lan > DNS and WINS Server Setting > DNS is set to 199.168.99.27 and another ip I forgot to save. In WAN dns settings I set it to google dns. Not sure how long its been that way. |

https://m.intl.taobao.com/detail/detail.htm...id=576366431854 How reliable, would you think? TPLINK WDR8650 at RMB 549 for AC2600. However I believe it will stay in Chinese firmware. |

Sorry for asking this in this thread. I bought ac86u and intend to flash to merlin. However i found 2 files inside the zip folder, one with typical trx extension (which normally i used to flash merlin on ws880) and another one is cferom-ubi.w
Based on my reading, i should flash directly using *.w file as this is a new filesystem format. Just to confirm whether this is the correct step? |

Guys i am referring to the title and my question is there any different between buying local hardware vs oversea(china) except for cost,warranty and maybe firmware? I think even local supply hardware also manufactured at china(i guess
 ) Do we need to update firmware to suit local malaysia usage? |
