QUOTE(soonwai @ Apr 25 2017, 03:00 PM) https://forum.lowyat.net/index.php?showtopi...post&p=84658440A report of C1200 hanging during torrents. Possibly running out of ram or memory leak. Looking worse for the C1200. Yes, I agreed. It was such a good spot on from you! But I can live with it. I don't torrent much.

Today I have another problem, after fixed the torrent issue freezing my C1200, now I have another issue.
The setup is like this, I have a laptop connected the RJ-45 cable to the C1200 network port and running KODI on the laptop.
Now, when I try to stream movie content from my android phone, after a while, the router hangs, WiFi connection and Ethernet connection still show connected though. And I can also ping my laptop pc.
I need to press the reset button to restart the router to resume .
So how?

Why my C1200 CPU is most of the time 100%? I don't have heavy streaming...

Yes, I have to say TP-LINK Archer C1200 is by far the best router provided by TM.

QUOTE(Ben Ling @ Dec 10 2017, 11:32 AM) guys after I change to the Archer C1200 router provided by TM, I am not getting speed test result more than 80Mbps, on WiFi 5GHz , tried on many devices same result. Plus, Google Play Store download is delaying for 1-minute and I try to use mobile data it downloads instantly. Any solution ? For me, I am getting 91Mbps on the Archer C1200 with 5Ghz WiFi. I think must be some settings on your router.

QUOTE(Jjuggler @ Dec 19 2017, 05:07 PM) tbh, I flashed my c1200 to aus firmware to avoid the "suffix @unifi" thing. The boot time does improve by 2% ONLY. Yesterday when I was having free time, i updated the firmware of the router to the latest version of aus firmware (before this using an older version of the firmware of aus). I must say, after upgrade, the situation even gets worse. Hahaha. It takes long time to connect to the internet. i guess around 6 minutes. The cpu load shoots to 100% and when I download torrent or using IDM, they are not responding to the server (takes around 1 to 2 minute) before they actually starts to download. Flash the EU one. Mine is using that and it's stable. Boot up is around 6mins...but I seldom reboot the router.

QUOTE(JohnLai @ Dec 21 2017, 09:59 AM) About C1200 V1......I noticed one weird stuff. I decided to unplug the motorolla dect phone (due to ah long issue).....and I noticed C1200 seem to hang less often.... Anyone can verify? Don't think it's related. For me, after flashing EU latest fw, no more hanging and reboot issue. Torrenting with more than 5 con-current download no problem also.

QUOTE(ivanchin99 @ Jan 7 2018, 01:26 PM) I'm on the beta firmware for C1200v1 EU and it is rock solid for almost 24 hours now. No disconnect / loss of internet that requires a router reboot No broken wifi (Wifi is turned on but some devices cannot connect) Memory usage is currently @ 27% Cpu usage fluctuates between 20-ish% to 100% - and I'm seeing lower low with this new firmware. Interesting how this performs over the next few days. You will face problem with accessing local devices with this beta firmware...
