Hi sifu, was planning to get this router and flash it with Merlin firmware.

Anyone tried whether it works with Unifi HyppTV?

Bought from ookas, has contacted tenda support and they request me to visit their service center to do further checking.

First time buying tenda.. so was wondering anyone got this issue before.

Haha, you're right. Is there any features like Auto off wifi, schedule reboot in Asus Merlin?

Beside upcoming unifi turbo, I actually bought tenda for these features to keep the router running long term. biggrin.gif

I managed to find the auto reboot schedule under Administration > System > Miscellaneous > Enable Reboot Scheduler. rclxms.gif rclxms.gif

If flash back to Tenda firmware, do we need to erase NVRAM like what we did for Merlin?

I also notice cannot detect on Asus router app but the chinese website manage to use it.

Yes. for my case my software center got problem because it is not showing anything then I use telnet to do it. first day I flash Merlin it did
present but 4th time nothing comes out.
it is correct just flash 378.56 at cfe then upgrade 380.70 inside router firmware upgrade.

I see. How bout reverting back to Tenda firmware, do we need to erase NVRAM or just flash it in CPE will do?

You long press reset button when the router is power on?

Actually quite similar to CPE method, turn off router and hold reset button then turn on the router until got ping.
