QUOTE(jusbella @ Jun 17 2017, 11:54 AM) Repeater no, but you can use LAN cable, change the internet mode to DHCP. so modem adsl-riger-db120wl cannot use as repeater. seem complicated procedure. if do not update firmaware, can still do as you said?But here you can change to TP LINK firmware: https://forum.lowyat.net/topic/3224961/all Do it at your own risk, YOU HAVE BEEN WARNED. if use lan cable, then need long cable to make sure can get better wifi coverage for upstair, rite? |

QUOTE(eehong @ Jun 17 2017, 12:06 PM) repeater for ease of setup, no LAN cable required, only standard 13A point. i'm using repeater, the speed & coverage is quite good. mine is 2 1/2 storey house, can get around 20Mbps+ on repeater, full speed 50-60Mbps if connect straight through router. thanks! sounds like good solution of <rm100. i'm using this, less than RM100 TL-WA850RE  |

QUOTE(lukemanz @ Jun 17 2017, 09:50 PM) There are 3 options: 1) Repeater over wifi: You put any router/wifi extender at upstairs and it will connect to the router downstairs using wifi. Very cheap, but your maximum speed is only half from the speed that you get using direct LAN cable 2) Repeater over LAN cable: You put any router/wifi extender at upstairs and it will connect to the router downstairs using LAN cable. Medium cost but very messy to layout the LAN cable from downstairs to upstairs. It will be high cost if involve conceal wiring. 3) Repeater over power socket: You put any router/wifi extender at upstairs and it will connect to the router downstairs using power socket. Highest cost from the 3 option but very easy to setup. No messy cable but have to sacrifice 2 plug point (1 downstair + 1 upstair) or can use AC pass-thru. If the power cable quality degrade, speed also will degrade. If your house electrical wiring is 3 phase, then need to buy the powerline that support 3 phase I personally have experience both 2 (internet) & 3 (hypptv). I go for option 3 and regret not knowing option 3 before I did the option 2 since I go for conceal wiring on option 2. In the end my option 2 is expensive (RM1k) compared to my option 3 (RM140)  Sample powerline kit: http://www.tp-link.com.my/products/details...PA4530-KIT.html  thx for the detailed reply. using the powerline kit will not have half the speed issue of option 1? found the price of TP-LINK TL-WPA4530 KIT AV500 Powerline ac Wi-Fi Kit to be from rm26x to rm300. u got it at rm140 from which shop? tq! |

when we terminate old telephone line and start using unifi telephone line, can we get back deposit paid to old telephone line? or the deposit paid is transferred to the unifi line? the old telephone deposit was like rm75.
tqia! |
