QUOTE(raynman @ Jul 11 2016, 04:40 PM) The good thing is that the original Huawei firmware is not too bad, although its features are limited. How is the wifi range for you? Good?I can't set alternative DNS servers, for example. Have to use the default TM's DNS servers. Wifi on both bands are stable, no random dropouts or whatever. One more thing. IPv6 cannot work in the original firmware.  You are staying in apartment or landed houses? |

QUOTE(fruitie @ Aug 9 2016, 11:44 PM) I haven't. Yup..much easier than flashing new firmware. The truth is my current firmware was flashed by a friend. I supposed upgrading firmware is not as difficult as flashing a totally new firmware right? I last updated a router firmware was back in 2013. Follow our forumer guide here QUOTE(sHawTY @ Aug 7 2016, 12:33 PM) 1. Download latest firmware from XWRT-Vortex website Credits to sHawTY 2. Extract the firmware to your harddrive 3. Login into your router from 192.168.1.1 4. Go to: Administration > Firmware Upgrade > Choose File > Locate the .trx file > Click Upload Very Important: DO NOT update your firmware through Wi-Fi. If the upload stream is corrupted, you may brick your router. When uploading firmware, always use ethernet cable  |

QUOTE(blacktubi @ Feb 6 2017, 01:06 AM) The wireless of my WS880 will go haywire once a while and I need to reboot it manually. I wonder how you guys got your WS880 so stable. What kind of problems? So far my WS880 is rock solid be it wifi or wired.. |

QUOTE(fruitie @ May 19 2017, 01:00 AM) Bidding goodbye to this awesome router. Just upgraded to the latest firmware of 380.66_2. On Saturday, I will pack up everything and pass to my sister to use for her UniFi connection back in Seremban. Also bidding farewell to my UniFi because I will be relocating my UniFi to her house. Going oversea ka?Not returning? Thou shall be missed. |
