Can I consider this thread as official tplink c1200 discussion thread, instead of just firmware. Can someone open up official thread on dlink dir842 too and other default routers supplied by TM?

Haha, I do not own dlink 842, im still at dlink wbr2300 vip 10, while u guys at premium private club enjoying turbo Haha, i admit being parasite and leeching others for info

I stay landed, doubt Time will ever reach me, time public perception seems quite good. No need return router when terminate?

I see, thanks

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

zhuoyang heck, haha u already posted in your 1st page. Flash the edit7 firmware 1st, then proceed to flash TM stock firmware, beware, all settings LOST except router config page password@192.168.0.1

Im initially on 20180103 us firmware>>zhuoyang>>tm>>time latest firmware

Method discovered, myth debunked

EDIT: verified, it works when the firmware directly before zhuoyang is Archer C1200(EU)_V1_180124 [https://static.tp-link.com/2018/201801/20180129/Archer%20C1200(EU)_V1_180124.zip]

EDIT2: it's possible to skip TM directly to TIME's firmware. If one can flash back to TM, one can also flash back to TIME, vice versa

EDIT3: it's safe to assume that no matter what us or eu firmware u are on, just flash zhuoyang's edit 7 firmware and u are good to go.

IMO, i dont think it is necessary to revert back to Malaysia firmware, EU and Malaysia not much difference

JohnLai, can u help me? I cant seem to get hypptv to work on latest eu firmware via aztech hl113e & hl113ew homeplug... The diagnostic test fails at central connectivity, wat could be wrong?

My current settings igmp proxy enable, v3

Router settings correct, i use preconfigured set of settings "malaysia-unifi", VLAN 600, at LAN 1 too.

Link speed around 45Mbps. As for 3 power phase problem? Im not sure, have to dig up, haha

After turning off the tv box, it works like charm...out of nowhere Thanks.

However, if oneday hypptv support 4k hdr streaming, itll be lag as hell, haha since my ciplak homeplug only up to 200Mbps.
Btw, does hypptv content come in 1080p resolution? Also, what is the LAN max speed of huawei ec6105v5?

Haha, it sucks then, the white box LAN speed, and etc

U try it out yourself 1st, then only report here, haha.

Rule of thumb of slave routers[AP or Repeater]
1) Switch off the dhcp and also
2) dont dial pppoe, turn off if any,
3) then select bridge/AP/wds mode if any

*2 & 3 u usually dont have to configure separately, they work in triggger fashion, activate 2) pppoe and 3) will be disabled automatically vice versa.

This wont work either, ive tried. Powerline it is.

When u wds 2 routers, did u conduct the "test network connection"? Which steps out of 7 failed? Maybe we can reverse engineer from there..

Channel number? Japan channel 13 or 14?

my bad then... i dont really know anymore. it;s impossible u accidentally hit hide ssid... Oh ya, try using wps setup instead

Hardware difference btwn archer c5 and c1200... dont think custom firmware is possible

Practical max thruput of powerline adapters 100M. Let's assume u hook up 5GHz bands of both c1200s via wds, whereas 2.4G are left out since u cant wds both 2.4G and 5G. Mesh systems dont have this problem, the main router and their slaves can communicate simultaneuously thru both 2.4G and 5G. The mesh system automatically optimizes/adjusts l/balances how much bandwidth to reserve to communicate with other routers and how much bandwidth dedicated to wifi clients(end users). One wifi name for all. No walls and barriers for communication among clients connected to different access points or repeaters or main router, meaning to say u can cast youtube video from furthest AP to TV connected to main router.

If subscribe bandwidth(by ISP) above 100M... i doubt u can attain full 300M bandwidth thru wds bridging or repeater&base setup. Better pick powerline then...

Not advisable. Different firmware version
