Connection wise, the router performs the best atleast better than the tm's firmware. No dc for about week. Let me give a secret, buy a cheap cooling fan and put under the router. Because heat will cause the router to perform badly. Just flash your router to the EU version (Australia). Do not update to the Archer C1200(EU)_V1_170706 firmware. It contains more bug. Just flash your router to Archer C1200(EU)_V1_170616 firmware. It is stable. Wireless performance, simply the best. Even better than archer C7.
**UPDATE
I update the firmware to the latest version of EU (Australia) - not stable, boot up time up to 6 minutes and downgrade back to the V1_170616.

btw i just updated my router's firmware to Archer C1200(EU)_V1_170616. Is that the most stable release? I called tm just now, they told me tm is currently awaiting a new firmware from their supplier. I guess a fix is coming soon?

Im using this version as attached below. This is by far the latest firmware my router currently running.

You can get the firmware along with my personal review on the firmware here

Just upgraded to 1.1.3 Build 20180124 rel.52299 (EU). Didn't have to apply my settings again, previous settings are still there after the upgrade. So far so good, i might consider converting this router to be repeater.

1. On the other hand I have enabled Tx Beamforming for my 5.0GHz Wireless. May I ask if there are anything I should optimize in System tools > System parameters to improve my user experience?
2. What is the difference between NAT Boost and QoS? I can only choose either one, which one is better?

Thanks in advance!
