try go router webpage, under tools tab, go to "other setting" and tick in stealth mode, i havent try yet, tell me what u get afterward

Wonder is it only me. I sorta noticed once i hide ssid on both 2.4 n 5ghz, my ws880 sorta just "die"/"hang" Anyone having similar issues?

i just notice it doesnt have MAC address filtering..or mayb i couldnt find it..the only option is to 'allow or disallow' devices.

Guys, you need to state what firmware you are on before we can help you

How about the Huawei logo? You managed to turn it off as well?



This one, right? I tried to set for 1 minute. Nothing happened.

Nope, cannot...

Thank you for your help bro
Did everything that you told me to & now not seeing the error anymore

Hopefully won't be seeing those error at all

Thanks again

1. Go to Administration > System
2. Under Persistent JFFS2 partition tick Yes on Format JFFS partition at next boot
3. Under Miscellaneous tick Yes on Enable Telnet
4. Click Apply
5. Download PuTTY. Choose putty.exe & ignore the rest
6. Follow my PuTTY configuration as per the screenshot below

7. Type in your router login username then press Enter
8. Type in your router login password then press Enter (you won't see the password that you typed)
9. If you typed your password correctly, you should be able to see this:

10. Type mtd-erase2 brcmnand & press Enter
11. Wait for about 1 minute then type reboot & press Enter
12. Your router will reboot

thinking maybe i shud sell my ac68u and just use this router lel

The only discernible difference would be the wifi signal strength because the AC68U uses external antennas.

If the WS880 is only slightly weaker, I would ditch the AC68U and keep the WS880.

Why would you buy the same router? LOL

Use masking tape

i'm still using stock firware

on stock firmware, anyone know how to change to google DNS server?

Thanks for the great guide

Mine got -sh: mtd-erase: not found

it's mtd-erase2

Not mtd-erase

You're missing the 2.

oooo

Flash it to stock China firmware. You will lose the unifi preset, but you still can set the vlan manually and also the dns server.

Actually, it's more than that, but for RM199, the WS880 is totally worth it

RAM:
RT-AC68U - 256MB
WS880 - 128MB

Antenna:
RT-AC68U - Upgradable external antennas
WS880 - Non-upgradeable internal antennas

USB Port:
RT-AC68U - 2 Ports (1xUSB 2.0 + 1xUSB 3.0)
WS880 - 1 Port (1xUSB 3.0)

Wireless Speed:
RT-AC68U - Up to 1900Mb/s
WS880 - Up to 1750Mb/s

Would you be able to discern the differences during normal home use between RAM size and wireless speed?
