No need router, just modem (BTU) must be return.

I see, thanks

anyone know how to set the TIME flashed AC1200 into wireless bridge mode?

It works as repeater if i cucuk lan cable from my other router into this ac1200. But i dont want the AC1200 to have LAN cable, i want it to be bridge wirelessly.

Anyone?

Yeah sure use 5ghz WDS.
Requirements: EU firmware

Not sure if this issues is known/ or reported before. My internet is getting occasionally disconnected (The internet LED indicator becomes red )3-4 times every day, and the only way to reconnect back is switch off power and turn on.

Any idea how to fix this? update firmware?

Hardward ver: Archer C1200 v1.0
Firmware ver: 1.0.0 Build 20180403 rel.22124 (EU)

Read first page,first post.....instruction at the bottom.

On top of what prokiller1199 mention, I think in order for wds to work your the other router must also be using broadcom wifi chipset.

Btw you can also use the 2.4ghz band to create a wds with the EU firmware.

Already done.

Flashed the time modem to eu firmware and use inspect element to evoke the hidden wds page. Linked the router with my main rputer via 2.4ghz wds. Somehow this c1200 cannot detect my 5ghz main router set using 802.11ac mode only.

Everything working fine now. Can get dhcp from main router. Just cannot wds using 5ghz unless i set my main to 802.11b/g/n/ac mode. Which i dont want cox i wan the main router to run full AC at 5ghz.

5ghz range is much shorter than 2.4ghz. Could be the reason your c1200 unable to detect the signal.

If you really want to use 5ghz wds, try checking your main router if there is a setting to enable beam forming or increase the transmission signal. What model is your main router?

Another last resort is use wifi analyser apk to scan for your 5ghz ssid at every part of your house and set up your c1200 at the location where the 5ghz ssid can be detected.

No. It is just c1200 is a sht router. I put both next to each other when configuring and yes my main router has beam forming. The c1200 is just not a true AC router.

-.- Did you set the main router 5ghz channel to 36 - 48?
C1200 cannot detect other 5ghz channels. EU region limitation.

I havent try that though.

I guess is ok cox its just to extend my reach to my other room which i dont need the full bandwidth of 5ghz. Its just for surfing at bed.

Hi. You flashed the TIME Stock Router C1200 V1?

So far no problem after flashing the firmware?
Heard that EU Firmware got less channels for 5GHz?

I'm getting this router from TIME for free.

Thanks

Yup. I actually had a same router preciously but that one always hang
. Every 1 week had to restart router. It seems like this TINE one doing ok. Dunno if they revised the router.

Thanks for the info.

Is 5G able to connect to the main router via WDS?

The WDS Status can be activated in the settings?

Thanks.

I dunno. Fail for me cox i set main router to use AC mode only. However that main router 5ghz is on channel 112. Whereas the secondary router which is the c1200 is flashed to eu v1, and it support a few channel only. Maybe thats why the c1200 cannot detect 5ghz for wds.

Oh. For me 5G is important for me as it support higher bandwidth.

Thanks.

yea can. the channel for 5g of the main must at 36-48.

JohnLai it's actually possible to go back to tm firmware after flashing eu, could u update your 1st banner post? Got a guy here hosting beta firmware, later i tag him, haha u may also come out to identify yourself, this is your credit. Is is stasio? I bought my c1200 as second hand from my fren after he upgraded to asus ac68u.

Edit: found you, zhuoyang
