Thanks. edit: C1200v1_eu-up-1.1.3 Build 20180124 rel.52299 OpenWRT build number r12067 C1200v1_eu-up-1.1.3 Build 20180308 rel.49551(Beta) OpenWRT build number r13176 Flashing the 20180308 firmware results in 2.4Ghz wifi channel 12 and 13 missing. Official EU firmware 20180124 "flash-firm" CODE if [ "$fcc" = "1" ];then channel=$(($num%9+2)) else channel=$(($num%13+1)) fi But the 20180308 beta CODE if [ "$fcc" = "1" ];then channel=$(($num%9+2)) else channel=$(($num%9+2)) fi Hmm? Seem like 20180308 adds Wake On Lan (WOL) feature. Wireless driver and something about IPv6 being modified, but no idea what is being modified. That all about it. EDIT: From my rooting experiment.... Apparently, after one commit uci wireless etc and upload edited config.bin with any one of channel 58, 106, 122 and 138 with 80Mhz, C1200 will use that channel just fine. However, TP-Link webui will display "AUTO(Channel 106)" (depending on channel specified in config.bin) and there is no way to select U-NII-2A and U-NII-2C channels at webui. Parking, interested to read about more feedback on the beta firmware..

Mine's running FW V1.1.3 Build 20180124 rel.52299 (EU). It's a firmware that was applied via online upgrade in the web UI. I believe it's been on for at least a week. WAN IP remains the same. I've had it on longer than a week. Before I can be watching Netflix or Youtube via TV app while some heavy p2p goes on PC or Media box and suddenly it'll randomly reboot. Sometimes more than once a day. Since flashed this firmware. Not a single occurrence. Lucky. As for settings.. Router mode. IPv6 is enabled and working. Using OpenDNS for both IPv6 & IPv4. Default DHCP Server settings. Wireless: 2.4GHz is on High TP & Channel 13 offers the least interference at the condo, Auto channel width. 5GHz is also on High TP, a/n/ac mixed, Channel 36 has no interference whatsoever, auto channel width. Guest Network disabled.. No USB/Printer connected.. Have other wireless devices for such. All boxes ticked under the Nat Forwarding >> ALG area. UPnP enabled, DMZ disabled Both Parental & QoS settings are disabled. SPI Firewall enabled, DoS protection disabled ARP Binding and Access Control disabled No VPN Servers setup/enabled.

Yeah.. Close to default works and so I left as is.. I too have read about so many disappointed by the router. Guess mine was one of the lucky batches.

Noir et fier! Senior Member 7,118 posts Joined: Oct 2011 From: Wakanda	QUOTE(biloxee @ Mar 16 2018, 10:06 PM) That firmware produced the most uncommanded reboots for me. I remember you mentioned previously that you rarely monitor the WAN IP, so how do you know for sure it didn't reboot? Leaving it on for long periods doesn't mean it never auto-rebooted during the night or when your not using the internet. All, it takes is a couple of minuted to reestablish a connection once it reboots... Well, after i mentioned such and noticed so many people getting the same problem.. I offered to daily monitor the WAN IP.. Each night as tonight, I check and no change. I don't leave any browser cookies or cache behind as all are cleared with each browser exit .. so it can't be remnants. I've also explained that I could sit watching TV and cuz the router is right there beside the TV, easy to notice if it reboots. Not just me, other house members. I'm a night owl and most days of the week I'm home telecommuting on the PC.. So I'm sure I'd notice if I suddenly lose internet connection in the middle of a conference call.

No worry, my this USB Port has extra power plug (DC 5V) for more juices... Looks like you've made up your mind. Try it out then.. If it works..Great! Do return to let us know how it goes..

Noir et fier! Senior Member 7,118 posts Joined: Oct 2011 From: Wakanda	QUOTE(SilentVampire @ Apr 6 2018, 02:08 PM) Yes, the TP-Link sold by vendors are V3, not V1. TM are the only ones that keep issuing V1 although there are many issues already. Disable NAT Boost, configure per your setting. Still see internet led go orange/red at night time, happen 2-4 times per night... Checked the logs, a lot of led thing only... Tp-link can't fix the led controller problem????? Just get your own router and change it to the TP-Link C7 v4, or the Asus RT-AC1300UHP. TM has to clear stock mah.. Must have bought in bulk to be cheaper and I have to say mine works for me.. Not so much for others. This post has been edited by voncrane: Apr 6 2018, 04:00 PM

Guess just flash the EU one, from what I read in this thread, I won’t lose my HyppTV correct? Just the 5ghz WiFi band different? Thanks. I'm using AUS firmware.. No problems with wifi or Hypptv. Vlan tag it properly and should be okay. You probably meant 5 Ghz channels?? Possibly.

Nope.. Frequent Netflix user here and been using the router for over a year, never experienced such. What firmware are you running on the router?

Senior Member 7,118 posts Joined: Oct 2011 From: Wakanda	QUOTE(hitz666 @ Apr 30 2018, 11:41 AM) Not sure which firmware version, but never yet update it since starting using unifi last year, might be firmware issue? Yeah, it's possible. I'm running an Australian fw and I recommend flashing the latest from them too. Bare in mind, you would have to manually setup the firmware to match Malaysian ISP. If you do flash the Aussie fw, the iptv ports are reversed (I.e 4 is 1 and 1 is 4). If you are uncomfortable and or just want peace or mind. Then check current firmware matches the latest Malaysian version. Update manually if it isn't. QUOTE(SilentVampire @ Apr 30 2018, 11:43 AM) Which platform do you usually buy from? I would recommend Ookas. They are really good and an official TP-Link reseller. Search Ookas on Google. They are on Lazada, Lelong, Shopee, and 11street. Their TP Link C7 is V4, although they have it as V2. It is definitely the router issue, try switching router and see if the problem persists. You are just lucky bro. Many other users having problems with the router, both Unifi and TIME users. Yeah.. I consider myself very lucky it's been alright for me. No need to dispose or upgrade just yet..

Bought it from a TIME user. For rm150. Such a generous gentlemen. Err, you actually paid for this router? I mean, I'm an owner and it performs well for me. But folks like me are an anomaly. Just saying that if it wasn't given to me "free", based on what I've been hearing about it, I wouldn't use my money to buy it. Would have gotten something better. But hey, bought d and so good luck..

I do have tm's archer c1200 (dismantle it in order to have an access to the internal parts as well as void the warranty as well). I bought time's archer c1200 to compare both of them. We need to invest on something that we wish to learn. Fair enough.. Do let us know if you find noteworthy ways of improving it's performance..
