If the router support VLAN out of the box, you are good to go. Asus router is a safe bet as it's firmware is universal ans support VLAN out of the box.

If you want to troll, try putting more effort doh.gif How does a router work if it doesn't have antenna. No visible antenna doesn't mean no antenna doh.gif

I have purchased an Asus router from Taobao and currently using it ASUS AC 66U for RM 2xx. Seems to be an European set but looks new . Without the retail box.
The Unifi ISP setting is already in built. No problem to use on the spot. But u need to find a shipper able to ship it back to Malaysia. The normal freight by air dont ship modems. It took me 6 weeks for sea freight.
Hope this helps.

I saw this comment and straight up bought a Asus RT-AC66U for about RM230. Actually, it's an American set not European. I had yet to found any European set sold in Taobao. Luckily the forwarder are able to ship via air. Will be receiving it in a week time.

I'm so tempted to get one too. Why is there such a huge discrepancy in pricing? Local price is what? RM500?

On a different note, have you got your unifi speed upgrade yet?

Asus routers are way overpriced in Malaysia for unknown reason. RT-AC66U cost USD $140 in US and it's sold >RM750 in Malaysia puke.gif . Basically the Taobao link above sold unit that are refurbished. Since the price is so cheap, I wouldn't mind about the warranty and the aesthetic. I just got upgraded from VIP5 to Unifi Lite like three weeks ago.

I checked the firmware was from EU so i assumed it was from there. Not too sure if its US or EU. But the Unifi setting is already available when i plug it in.

Seller also sells the AC68 if you need one.

Seems like we bought from the same seller. icon_idea.gif
