QUOTE(irwan6179 @ Jan 18 2017, 03:12 PM) Can it just be setting the SSID/password the same? With proper rssi i think we can achieve the so-called seamless roaming. Yes u r right good sir. As simple as that. Thats y sometimes lr is giving more problems than solution when it comes to multiple ap.(more expensive is in some cases) |

I was waiting for responds here for a while before i decided. Anyway, i think i will come up with ipv6 tutorial soon. The tutorial is basically as simple as copy and paste in the ssh terminal. So stay tuned. =)

Yes , u can bro. Just update to 1.9.1 then follow the instruction. Or u can manually add new connection by;
Delete previous pppoe connection(time). Then add vlan 500. Then add another pppoe under ethx.500. lemme know if u cant find them. This post has been edited by wanttotree: Feb 27 2017, 07:33 PM |

QUOTE(bear1305 @ Mar 1 2017, 03:07 PM) Hi.. Yes u can add vlan easily. Just add vlan interface, then add pppoe on top of that.I'm on 1.9.1 currently and already setup using Load Balance; not the one with vlan. But only one pppoe used currently. The 2nd pppoe is currently disconnected. I plan to use the 2nd pppoe with Unifi. So, can I add the vlan to the eth port directly or need to setup from scratch again? |

QUOTE(bear1305 @ Mar 2 2017, 10:26 AM) Hi.. Please post yr config bro.Noted, thanks. Will try on that. By the way, one more question, my setup is as below:- eth0 - switch0.110, switch0.120, switch0.130 eth1 - pppoe1 eth2 - pppoe2 eth3 - switch0.110, switch0.120, switch0.130 eth4 - not configured anything I tried configuring eth4 to assign IP by DHCP without any vlan. But, it doesn't seem to assign an address and I can't access internet. I also tried being on a static address 10.20.100.100 as my ER-X gateway address is on .251, and I'm plugged in to port eth0 and yet no access to internet. But, at same time, I have traffic coming in from eth3 via vlan 110, 120 & 130 without any problem accessing internet. Am I missing out something here? |

QUOTE(evilfish @ May 13 2017, 10:07 AM) No particular reason, just thinking that family members watching a lot of youtube and tv apps on mobile phone or tablet at times causes stuttering despite i am on unifi 30mbs so I am thinking may be need a switch with capable QOS to do the job properly. (I didn't turn on the smart qos on ERL, want to leave that for the switch). My network topology is simple : Your setup is not bad at all. While waiting for yr future switch based qos, why not give the smart qos on the erl a go? Just to see if it improve or the other way around.BTU-> ERL -> Switch (TP LINK 8 port gigabit switch (plug and play type)) -> IP TV -> Hypp TV -> Old NAS (single bay) -> going to change to 4Bay later...funding WIP -> Smart TV -> AP (RT-AC68U) -> smart phones (3), Tablet (2), laptop (2), IPTV Any suggestions or any things can further improve? Thanks My theory is u may suffer from buffer bloat, one or several of your device used up or hogs yr upload speed which is capped at 10mbps. This may cause the stutter in your setup. Once the upload que is used up, it will suffer yr download speed regardless of hw much bandwidth u still have. I hope i didnt confuse u. U can read up many available articles regarding bufferbloat online. A simple solution is to enable smart qos so it can manage the bandwidth to avoid bufferbloat to occur. Cheers. |

Hi, have you set your mss-clamp to 1452 and select "all"?

U can try these;
1) mss clamp instead of "all" try "pppoe" 2) set your dns to your preferred dns server. Etc: 1.1.1.1 3) factory default, then re setup the whole thing. 4) revert to previous firmware and re setup. Good luck |

QUOTE(teohes @ Jan 31 2019, 12:57 PM) Looking at my MAXIS TP-LINK ArcherC5v modem settings, I noticed the following in the WAN setting that is not in the ERX "show configuration" txt file. The config txt looks okay to me. But whats weird is your ip on erx is at 172.24.x.x/32 while on yr tplink its at 10.105.x.x/32. Is that normal for maxis private ip? From this info, my guess is either your user-id and password might be wrongly typed. Or it could your account might be due. Im on maxis public ip so im not so familiar with private ip subnet(s). Other than that, i cant catch anything wrong. Yr vlan config, auto firewall, auto masquerade are all on point.The MAXIS modem setting has the PPPoE/621 with GW 10.105.192.1 See attached screenshot of the WAN Status on the ArcherCv5 BTW: Would really be useful if someone with Edgerouter on Maxis Fibre can kindly post their "show configuration" output (or Please PM me with the file if you do not wish to share the file publicly ?) |

QUOTE(teohes @ Jan 31 2019, 03:09 PM) Good news! @wanttotree You are welcome, it is a good idea that u sent enough info so "we" can spot something. The config txt is good idea, but the snapshot of both erx and tplink summary was clever. I never have thought to ask u to get those screenshot.You were spot on ! when you wrote: " From this info, my guess is either your user-id and password might be wrongly typed." I just called MAXIS to verify my account login details and it appears the technician who installed my MAXIS fibre wrote it down in-correctly ! SO THANK YOU VERY MUCH for your help! I just got it working. |

QUOTE(teohes @ Jan 31 2019, 03:32 PM) FWIW: I just did a ping checking for MTU now that my MAXIS PPPoE is working. I have done the traditional 1492 mtu and mss clamp 1452 without any fragmentation.>ping yahoo.com -f -l 1464 Pinging yahoo.com [72.30.35.9] with 1464 bytes of data: Reply from 72.30.35.9: bytes=1464 time=264ms TTL=47 Reply from 72.30.35.9: bytes=1464 time=264ms TTL=47 Ping statistics for 72.30.35.9: Packets: Sent = 4, Received = 4, Lost = 0 (0% loss), Approximate round trip times in milli-seconds: Minimum = 264ms, Maximum = 264ms, Average = 264ms >ping yahoo.com -f -l 1465 Pinging yahoo.com [72.30.35.9] with 1465 bytes of data: Reply from 192.168.1.1: Packet needs to be fragmented but DF set. Packet needs to be fragmented but DF set. Packet needs to be fragmented but DF set. Ping statistics for 72.30.35.9: Packets: Sent = 3, Received = 1, Lost = 2 (66% loss), So I guess MAXIS PPPoE MTU is 1464 and MSS-Clamp should be 1424 ? i did try to ping up to 1464 and it works. I think you might be right on that. Thank you for pointing it out. Do enable your pppoe offload, vlan offload and ipv6 offload too(if u havent already). Bonus; Follow my ipv6 tutorial to get it running. It sped up a lot of good ipv6 based site and streaming. Eg: fb, insta, snapchat, and best of all youtube and netflix. Cheers.

QUOTE(teohes @ Jan 31 2019, 04:53 PM) Will look into pppoe, vlan and ipv6 offload (have not looked at this yet) Cool. Pi hole is amazing. Now pair that with unbound(your very own dns server). It would make a very powerful snappy experience. I will post tutorial on that if theres demand. In the meantime, looking forward for your ipv6 success.Busy configuring my raspi-hole ( https://pi-hole.net/ ....an opensource ad blocker running on the raspberry pi). Done !! Also just setup ubiquiti controller on raspi and configuring my UAP-AC-PRO now. Need to figure out all the vlan stuff next as I have over 30 IOT devices, kids streaming, NAS etc.... BTW: I missed your ipv6 tutorial so that is a must read. Ha..... I just found it ! |

QUOTE(jyhk_junk @ Mar 10 2019, 07:41 PM) hi wanttotree, hello bro jyhk_junk, i know usg uses the same hardware as edgerouter-lite, and i heard that its possible to configure it through ssh then create and modify the json file. i dont have a usg in hand and i cant verify if its gonna work. did some googling and not much people has done vlan tag bridging for iptv use. Just brought the Unifi-USG and tried to configure the port LAN-2 to use for TM Hyppo-TV box, but the nearest solution i got is those that use to gather with Unifi-Switch. Which my current setup is without Unifi-Switch (only use USG). (my LAN already can access to internet via USG as the gateway). Current setup- TM modem <-> USG (WAN port) & USG (LAN-1 port) <-> LAN. Can you help to share any guide or advise any link /Reference on how to configure the LAN-2 to use for TM-Hyppo Box. many thanks i am aware of the unifi switch method, i experienced that any cheap smart/managed switch will work. i also was told by several forumer here that any layer 2 switch will work as well. (even better because no additional setting needed). So it is not necessary to spend more for another unifi switch. If i had a usg at hand, i would have make it a late night project tonight (lol), i hope there is another forumer out here that are kind to share their setup. sorry mate. |
