Im using C1200, wifi signal quite bad for upstairs. So I use homeplug for upstairs.
C1200 has 3 antennas btw.
One thing I don't like about this C1200 is that it only has one USB port.
*
wireless 2.4ghz or 5ghz?
1) 5ghz are weaker than 2.4
2) 2.4 got lot of interference, scan and choose the right channel
what u need is an AP or extender to max your wifi range.

Yes C1200 got 3 antennas but still a 2x2 router.

for me single USB is not an issue. but it would be nice if its USB 3

Yes, 5ghz is weaker than 2.4. But 2.4 is also weak upstairs, so I rely on homeplug wifi extender plug.
I needed one more USB port for recording my cctv footage.
*
best solution is pull RJ45 upstairs and set another AP.

well to be honest, homeplug wifi not strong to cover whole floor. better get actual AP or use your old router

Guys, I'm having random disconnect sometimes when I am on the 2nd floor ( my house is double storey ) and the modem/router was set up on ground floor

Right now I'm using TM's DIR-850L router which has no antenna band so any recommended one to replace it ? Using Unifi Advance 30 btw thanks.
*
if u buy new router, u can use your old router as an access point vice versa.

for normal internet usage, tplink c5 are more than enough. i dont think u need extra features right? then u dont need an Asus.

what about those Xiaomi Mi Wifi router ?  Do they work well and support Unifi ? My budget is below Rm200 only .

I never tried Mi Router but i know they use custom firmware to enable Unifi connection. for stock firmware, u can only use it as access point.

here's a tip. Dont be fooled by high powered antenna router biggrin.gif

access point and repeater are the same thing

what does repeater 50/50 means? half it works half it doesn't work? doh.gif

most of it works exactly the same, take the existing wifi signal and rebroadcast it.

addon, current market for such device have all the functionality is just up to you, how you want it to be.

pulling a cable to it and create a new SSID, take existing wifi and amplify , or take existing wifi and rebroadcast it to another SSID.
*
Repeater cuts half of ur speed. Plus not very stable.

Pull cable or use powerline works better but of course cable 100% fullspeed compared with powerline

Does a rebroadcasted wifi network will have the same speed as the origin one?

Eg. Router 1 is 300Mbps Wifi N, Router 2 is 300Mbps Wifi N.

Does user connected to the Router 2 will get same MAX speed as the user connected to the Router 1.
*
If use alone wont feel difference.

Try multi user. Thats when the problem start
