If you're the T-Mobile version, it is not officially supported.

You should check out this thread for guide: https://www.reddit.com/r/tmobile/comments/8...tmobile_router/

Got the link from Taobao?

You can just try this first: https://sourceforge.net/projects/asuswrt-me..._2.zip/download

If it doesn't work (which means you could have the T-Mobile version), you need to follow the guide I linked from Reddit.

Seems like you have the T-Mobile version. If you've upgraded to Merlin before, I think you can just directly use the latest Merlin firmware without any conversion?

In order to get high speed, I use a Realtek RTL8811AU Wireless LAN 802.11ac USB 2.0 Network Adapter.
It got to be 802.11ac to achieve higher than 130Mbps (n speed).

What I think is that, perhaps your Taobao seller has already converted it for you. Anyway, that's good.

Not sure why you can't reach 800Mbps. According to this list, you should be able to get at least 500Mbps.

I'd check with a different PC or LAN cable to see if the router is the problematic one.
