I have 3x C1200 from TM. Turn off SPI Firewall and all USB media sharing function help a lot. (NAT boost still enable)

Best regard.

One does not simply turn off SPI Firewall.

Don't turn off SPI Firewall...
And nothing to do with USB media sharing that can cause any problems...

oh real... that is awesome.
currently im using TP Link router and the result of speedtest shocked me.
it is getting a reliable signal and really good performance.
even do pinging only takes me around 7ms to get it.


always TP Link!!
* can see my speedtest result frm the attached screenshot.

Hi Andrew_Johnny, thank you for your support as always!

Any VDSL Modem support new UNIFI Lite?

TPLINK SUPPORT #269310
Previously dealt with Clare Li but so far nothing has fix yet. The new VPN Server function is also broken.

hi tp-link sifus,


yesterday the tm's contractor has come to my house to install the Unifi lite. the whole set up was monitor by my dad and he don't have any knowledge on IT related stuff and thus the contractor was the one that setting the whole unifi up and running.

since yesterday night, i am trying to enter the google dns into the dhcp server set up but it was not successful as some of the website was blocked by unifi's dns. I have post my inquiry into the unifi lite post yesterday and i don't get any feedback from any lyn forumers, thus decided to post my inquiry here to get some answer from any tp-link expert.

below is the DHCP server screen shot page of the tp link router:



The wireless router that TM's contractor provided was TP-Link Wireless Router Archer C1200.

There is also another device with the TM's logo and Huawei's brand. The model was ONU-Huawei-HG8240w. May I know what was the function of this device? It looks like a router but it was connected with the fiber and it also connects to the TP-Link Wireless Router Archer C1200.

I apologize for the long essay and thank you for your time for reading my question.

Thank you.


TLDR version:

1. Where to set the google DNS? Is it at the DHCP server page as per my screen shot above? I tried to access certain website, but I still get blocked after setting up the google DNS in the DHCP server page.

2. What was the function of the ONU-Huawei-HG8240w? It looks like a router to me.

TM contractor gave me TP-Link Wireless Archer C1200 along with the ONU-Huawei-HG8240w when setting up the unifi lite.

Thank you.

hi bingozero,

i have changed the DNS to google dns as per your screen shot, but it randomly still block the website that I browse. Do I have to edit the IPV6 setting? Below is the screen shot of the IPV6 setting in the router.



Thank you for your time for helping me out.

Just turn off ipv6

hi guys,

need some help here, I'm using Archer C5 given by TM unifi. And my pc is connected to it with a TPLink T9e, while I dont hv any problem with the 2.4GHz signal which is always strong, the 5GHz signal is bad, only getting 1 bar signal most of the time. Is there anyway I can improved the 5G signal?

The signal penetration of 5Ghz is weaker than 2.4Ghz. There's nothing you can do about it unfortunately, it is physics.

Use 2.4Ghz for range and 5Ghz for performance. You can consider adding more access points.

I suggest you to disable IPV6 as it may cause fallback issues on certain website currently.

I connect all my router behind pfSense. So I don't need SPI firewall. I simple switch off all function that I don't need.

Best regard.

Hi there,

The zip file for Archer C1200 Malaysian firmware downloaded from "http://static.tp-link.com/Archer%20C1200(MY)_V1_161115.zip" is corrupted.

Can TP-LINK Malaysia address the problem asap?

Now I have face problem with TP-LINK router TL-WR841N, it just dropping Wi-Fi connection and lost the connection after open about 12 hours or even long time, it force me to restart it by turning off the router and open it again, how to resolve it?

Hi there, thanks for the support!
