QUOTE(ckh83 @ Aug 28 2018, 12:12 PM) Thanks for reply. I am sure it is me haha. EU version of firmware, but definitely support Unifi. Haha, didn't remember it's post by you cause read too many post. EU version have better CPU and ram, but is also support unifi. right? Limited channel i think is big impact if use in landed, i guess will less conflict with other houses Yes, limited impact if landed. See here for the link for get the latest version: https://shopee.com.my/TP-LINK-AC1900-Wirele...80984.255675254 Or Lazada: https://www.lazada.com.my/products/tp-link-...4-s1749806.html |

C7 is okay, but you can't set VPN in this router. You need at least the C2300 to setup VPN. If you are using VoIP from Maxis, you will need to bridge the Maxis router to use VoIP. |

QUOTE(ckh83 @ Aug 28 2018, 11:50 AM) Thanks. The Archer C9 performs significantly better than C7 in testing and real world performance. How about C7 or C9? Which 1 is better? I read through posts mostly recommend C7 V4 and C9 hardware is old. But if i read review, seem like C9 have better hardware and signal Of course, I am a huge fan of the C3150 due to the superb performance. |

currently thinking of getting a c7 + re450 (range extender) but came across c3150 and pricing is quite similar.
My main concern is range for 5ghz. Will i be better of getting a c7+re450 or a c3150 is good enough. btw staying at a 2 storey landed property. |

I would highly recommend the C3150 as having an extender on the network will limit the throughput of the network. Get the C3150 as it’s coverage is superb, even for 5GHz. You won’t regret your purchase. Don’t bother with switching on the IPv6 though, as it is not optimised right here.My main concern is range for 5ghz.

Anyone managed to disable WPS on the Archer C7 V4? I've already disabled it in the settings yet it is still on
Only consolation is it will lock when you bruteforce it. |
