Hi Jayce,

My friend bought this Mi Router Pro (without hard disk) and was unable to use it for his Maxis Fibre.
He passed to me to try it out on my Unifi.
I tried set it up using Mi Wifi app on my Samsung phone as well as direct LAN connect to my PC following the steps in the manual and app (i can read Chinese).
Both failed. Got wifi signal but no internet connection. It says has problem with DHCP.
My friend said that is the same issue when he tried to set it up for his Maxis Fibre.
What should i do? I am not tech savvy.
Will appreciate your expert advise. Thanks.

Regards
Nikobellic

Other forums in Lowyat say we need to change the Xiaomi router firmware to Asus Padavan firmware in order to use the Xiaomi Router Pro on Maxis Fibre or Unifi. If not (changing the firmware) the Xiaomi Router Pro can only be used as an wifi extender.
Any expert here can advise?
