This is great. Good of TP-Link to have a dedicate thread for their products.

When is the Deco M5 going to arrive in Malaysia ?

Dear TP-Link representative, several of forum member have been reporting about high cpu usage, slow boot time and slow down with Archer-C1200 model.

Is there any plan to fix the issue?

When can I install openwrt on my router I bought?

Coming soon!

Dear TP Link,

Why is Archer C2600 reahes EOL stage just after 1 year? While there is still bugs here and there, especially IPv6 on custom dns setting.

Parking.

I doubt vendor will teach you how to do this though
May just head over google and have a look

Can you please add dns.het.net DDNS option please?

Will get TP-LINK if it's added...

You can download the latest firmware from the US site, it is still updated. The latest version is 170316.

Flash at your own risk.

Congratulations on your new thread.
Now we have support for TP-Link here.

TP-Link Archer C9 user here.

Thanks

TP Link Archer C3150 user starting yesterday here...

Old school TP-Link TL-MR3020 & TL-MR3420 user here.

Plan to buy this router. How is the performance + wireless range?

Thanks for the support!

Dear Cheng Siong, would you mind to provide us your personal contact by Personal Message, we will assign technical support for case follow up. Apologies for the inconvenience caused. thank you.

Thank you for your kind support! Have a great day ahead!

I thought it is the other way round, i.e., we should be thanking TP-Link Malaysia for their support.

Or is this not a support thread?

No mention of TP-Link Malaysia providing support to its customers here anywhere.

Dear Raynman, yes this is a product & support thread which you can drop us a comment for further help out. We will try our best to solve your issue.

Dear FusionXY, thank you for your kind support! Yes, Archer T2U provides 433Mbps high speeds WiFi over the 5GHz band. However, the outcomes are subject to changes. You may visit our website for info: http://www.tp-link.com.my/products/details...Archer-T2U.html
Have a good day!

Okay, here goes....

I have a TP-Link TL-WR1043ND hardware version 3 with firmware 3.16.9



No matter what IPv6 settings I choose, I cannot get IPv6 to work on Unifi.



Please help.

You're welcome bro.

Thanks for the information.

TP-W8970 V3 user reporting in.

Hi, you may try Stateless.

Sometime when choosing DHCPv6 during the first time.
It won't connect.

Set to Stateless then restart and then set to DHCPv6 and again restart.
Try this method.

I have tried that many times.

It doesn't work.

I've been using an Asus RT-N56U with a TL-WA860RE range extender for some time now but of late, I've been having to reset/re-pair the range extender WPS at least twice a month, which is getting quite frustrating.

And so, any recommendation for a replacement setup that would not require a range extender? I live in an apartment of 1300 sq ft. Imagine a rectangle, with the equipment at the upper right corner. Signal needs to reach lower left corner.

IINM, Native IPV6 is broken on that model.

Try Tunnel 6to4, fill in the DNS manually and use RADVD for LAN assignment.

Hi,

I am looking a new tplink router with dynamic bandwith control function. The function should be able to set bandwith allocation for each devices connected automatically.

For example:
I have 4 devices at home. When 4 devices connected together, internet speed will divided equally between this 4 devices. When only 1 device connected, it can use max speed alone. The router need to do it automatically. I don't want to set bandwith allocation per mac address.

I am not interested in deploying a transition mechanism.

I need the full IPv6 support as stated on the TP-Link box.

That's why I ditched the WR1043ND and used the Huawei WS880 with Xwrt-Vortex firmware instead.

Hi.

I bought a Cloud Camera model NC250 last year, and it has a problem of unstable connection. It frequently disconnects from the network. At first I thought maybe my router was not good enough and a bit too far. But ever since I use a new router this year, I'm more convinced that the camera is bad.

The distance from my router is about 10 meters. My current router is TP-Link Archer C5. I don't think the problem is with the router, the distance or signal strength, because whenever it's connected, I see the signal strength is shown as full bars in the app, and around 90% in the web interface. My phone can also connect to my network just fine from the camera spot.

So something is wrong with this camera. Please let me know how to claim warranty on it.

my c1200 work soo far soo well for me as compare to old Dlink Dusbin shaped router. which sucks like my grandma kancil
the only issue for me is the boot up time, quick annoying sometime when require a reboot , around 2 mins 35s
but after boot up it work brilliant!! even build it with vpn server function in c1200, i only can find this in high end router above rm600.

you can try lower down the high cpu frequency by trying the sugggestion below
1)turn off wps
2)off upnp
3)off ftp
4) turn off whataver function u can find in it

Hiii TP LINK WHEN WILLL mALAYSIA LAUNCH UR WIFI MESH DECO M5 ????????????????????????????????????
need the router base antivirus for my home wifi gate and smart door system.
Besides, if i buy it from Amazon do the warranty cover globally?

Try using in on Ethernet and see if the same issue happen.

My NC450 is pretty reliable after some wireless optimisation at a pretty congested area.

I recommend using wireless 20Mhz on channel 1/6/11.

It is frustating. I think u should abandon repeater/range extender. Clearly it wont help.

Try use powerline or pull lan cable and install another AP to where u desire.

Single AP wont able to cover whole house. Definitely need an additional AP.

What if I use it with the cable and no issue? I'm only going to use it wirelessly anyway because of the location.
I've applied your recommendation for the wireless settings. I'll monitor how well it goes. Thanks.

i have the same slow boot time with c1200. May I know how long it boots up after you turn off some of the services as above?

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!

just changed to C3150 from RT-AC66U , yes its support unifi and iptv . wireless coverage far better than RT-AC66U

why the bandwidth control on guest mode only work in upload but not download?
Archer c5

Yup noticed this issue also. Dun know why,.

So after purchase just setup as usual and good to go ?

Yup , fill in ur unifi login and password , then enable iptv and u good to go

I am thinking of buying this router, is it ok for 2 storey terrace house?

Is it support android box IPTV?

Im living in 20 X 70 double story terrace house. To be honest, this router pretty decent. I haven't test on android box IPTV yet. So you may ask other forumer who using this router currently.

Currently testing the TP-LINK Archer C5400. Spot the difference of C5400 and AD7200.


Preliminary testing.

cant wait for your comparison!

Got a chance to try TP-Link NC450 wireless network camera recently.

It was great. I never expect the firmware and features to be so good. The image quality is great as well.

Read my review of the camera here.

Hey guys, was wondering, I got a Maxis IPTV Technicolor Modem, and I was looking for a new router for wireless extension. What would be a good model for me?

get any access point/extender will do. but depends on your modem location (house/room).

Thanks. currently my modem is in my living room, but my room is quite far from the modem. My modem also is about 4 - 5 years old, and I was thinking it is due for a change, especially since its just the default one from Maxis.

What is the difference between an access point & a router?

alot diff..access point is to boost the wifi coverage. router is only for dial up only. some router do have built in access point but its crap for me. would prefer to get access point ( pure) and range extender is similar with access point but diffirent on the configuration. you better change the new modem and router better. another is either you get powerline will do.

I see.. Thanks a lot. Any recommendations? I would like to get one with a good range.

for which one you looking?unifi?

for which one you looking?unifi?

Maxis. Currently looking at the Archer C1200 from TP-Link. Any good?

This post has been edited by LolzWhat: Jun 30 2017, 05:53 PM

yup same thing i used for my unifi recently already got aweek liao using unifi. just that you need the proper configuration for maxis settng will do. if you stay in single setorey then that router should be able to handle the coverage else you need access point/ extender or powerline with at least av500 > this can boost the performance.

Hmm.. I live in a double storey house. Should I get a extender/powerline then?

I would suggest the Archer C5 or the C7, and the powerline, TL-WPA4530-Kit. I would not suggest an extender as it effectively cut the thoroughput to half, unless your house has separate wiring or three phase-wiring, as the powerline would not work then.

Get a better router first then just decide on whether you need a powerline extender.

In that case, C1200 is decent. If budget allows, consider the Archer C7.

Use powerline extender whenever possible as the performance and stability is much better than a wireless repeater.

Is there a proper manual configuration setting for IPv6 for "orange" firmware modem/routers like the TD-W8961N? I managed to get IPv6 + Google DNS working after a few days of trial and error but I'm not sure if the settings are ideal. Also I'm getting a lot of "dns2str too long" errors in the modem/router logs so I suspect that its got to do with my manual DNS configuration for IPv6. Can anyone help?

like i say u can get both but that also depends on the barrier or location of your router (main). basically i used extender at ground floor but changed to access point mode.

i only used extender but change to access point mode for my tplink plug. i cannot used powerline cos it is separate wiring although it can be supported but not much different if used access point. just for me la cos the main router at 2nd floor and the first floot used xtender/ap only. if used power line for each room no problem for coverage but when it installed on the 1st floor gg cos signal losses.

powerline if you dont want messy cabling.

my house cannot support powerline, so i went for traditional RJ45 cabling to another AP. full gigabit speed. no issue at all.

wireless repeater sux. not very useful in congested area/zone.

Hi guys, need your advise.
Recently i purchased the, 300Mbps AV500 Wi-Fi Powerline Extender Starter Kit (TL-WPA4220KIT).
How do i test that my installation/pairing/sync have been successfully done?

Thank you.

I need suggestion here. I used tplink archer c7 as wifi router and tplink wifi extender (WA850RE). My problem is my smart tv got intermittent connection due to low signal. My router is located far from the tv. my wifi extender only using 2.4Ghz and regularly disconnect. Do i need to buy powerline adapters, or any better solution for this?

Download the tpPLC app. It is able to show a lot of things including link speed.

Thank you very much.

I suggest you try using powerline adapters if possible, rather than the wifi extender. Connect the one of the powerline adapter directly to your router, and the other adapter to a power plug near the tv, and connect the tv to the adapter directly, via an Ethernet cable. Just be sure that your house does not have separate or three phase wiring, otherwise the powerline adapter won't work.

Thanks. How to identify separate or three phase wiring?

Hard to identify if you're not involved in the construction of the house. Best thing you could do is to get an inexpensive powerline adapter and if it doesn't work, you could sell it or use it somewhere else. I would recommend the TP-Link PA-4010KIT of you don't need extra Wi-Fi capability, and if you do, the TP-Link WPA4530KIT.

Check your power meter if you have 3 wires going through the meter.

You can check your distribution box as well. If you have a 3 phase MCB then you are probably on 3 phase power supply.
