I want to ask all the sifus here, will it be difficult to set this up? Like I saw need to do flashing and stuff. Plan to buy new router but I have no idea how to set it up, I'm using unifi. Thought of buying asus ac55u, heard its good and easy to set up.

QUOTE(raynman @ Aug 9 2016, 10:57 PM) If you buy the Huawei WS880, you don't have to flash custom firmware. Oh then why I saw many of you guys do flashing? And how's the connection of unifi on the router? I still cant make decision on the huawei ws880 or the asus rt-ac55u. how much is the price for the huawei ws880?It comes with Unifi support out of the box. You just need to enter your Unifi userID and password.   |

Thanks for the info Xwrt-Vortex just released their latest firmware update 380.61 on 5th August. There is no issue with Unifi connection, whether on stock firmware or custom firmware. I believe Sri Computers in Lowyat Plaza is now selling the WS880 at RM299 instead of RM199.  |
