Sorry for late reply.

This Acher C7 router got good review worldwide. But its wireless coverage might not be significantly better than the stock router provided by TM. Another thing we need to understand is, networking involves 2-way communication. In plain example, there's no point to have a wireless router that can transmit signal of let say 200 meter in range but our device itself only able to transmit data for a range of 100 meter. In this case, your device able to receive router's signal, but not the other way round. So wireless connection failed.

Using powerline adapters instead (preferably with wifi capability) might be a better alternative to solve your issue...

TM now use Archer C5 as their stock router for Unifi. So if use Archer C7 instead, it is more than capable i believe.

Hard to say actually since that i only use Archer C5 as of now (no experience using the Dlink 850). Anyway, Archer C5 seems stable as of now..but in term of reliability, i reserve my comment (too early to comment..less than 2 month of usage)

That's understandable. The higher the frequency (5 GHz in this case), the shorter its range. If wifi range is our concern, 2.4GHz is the one to choose. Not to mention that 5 GHz signals do not penetrate wall as good as the 2.4 Ghz signals do

Actually no surprise from the beginning. When i open their so-called 'surprise' email, i just got the speed upgrade, which is not a surprise at all because everybody knew it & will get it (announced in Budget 2017 what). I thought they will surprise me with extra goodies other than the speed upgrade

Our neighbouring country already offered 10,000 Mbps..& yet, we still talking about 1Mbps (with quota some more )..what a shame

Horrible i have to say..not to mention the frequent dc that occurred. TMnet dial-up 1515..what a memory...

Previous firmware also got bugs at Guest Network Bandwidth Control (cannot control download bandwidth for guests). So my guests got access to all my 30Mbps internet bandwidth Fortunately, i able to control it using other method instead & now my guests can have internet access of 10Mbps max

Yet to flash to current firmware. Not sure whether current firmware will solve this issue.

Yeahh..actually i'm not too stingy about this initially. But sometime when my relatives come for 1 or 2 days, they took too much of the bandwidth until my smart tv sangkut2 when watching youtube or doing other things. That's when i decided to throttle down their (guests) bandwidth

Waiting for my turn..hopefully today. Anybody from Kedah got the free upgrade..kindly update here

Perhaps server location differs?

Using DDNS i believe...

I'm using RB951G-2HnD as a hotspot router (connected to the stock Archer C5 TM UniFi router). Very stable i must say

Most probably they will lay another dedicated fiber line into your house. The copper line internet port (Streamyx) cannot be used...
