Hi, all sifu. I just bought a high speed router from China TP-Link. Im currently using Unifi. May I know it is easy to do the setting up? Cause last time I heard that we need to get our Unifi special password from TM. Please help thanks.

Why did you buy the router from China when you can get good ones here for quite reasonable prices?

As far as I know, the China router you bought does not support VLAN tagging which is required for Unifi, so even if you have your PPPoE username and password to connect, you won't be able to use the router unless you get a smart switch that can support VLAN tagging.

hi sifu…i need some advise

i recently purchased a ROG GT-AX6000 from taobao

once received, i set it up following the router instructions (with Unifi PPPoe username and password) but somehow unable to connect to Unifi internet

as such, is there no other method apart from using this tp-link smart switch to solve my problem ?

fyi, my unifi plan is 800Mbps

thanks

Unfortunately, other forumers has answered your question and the news is not positive. I won't add on to the bad news but wish you best of luck in resolving the issue.
