Try to update the driver for your wireless adapter.  If that doesn’t work, see if your wireless adapter can go on 5GHz. If you can’t, get a USB wireless adapter that supports AC..

im using TP link T9UH ac1900 USB adaptor

weird.. when i use back my old asus router i get 105mpbs download, 48 on upload lol..

running on 5g wifi too

Hi guys

I don't know chinese but I'm trying to buy the 86U from Taobao

https://detail.tmall.com/item.htm?id=557582...d=3458267172183

This seller ships directly to malaysia for 36 yuan only. Before I place order, did I get the product right? Hopefully those who know chinese or familiar with Taobao can help me take a look before I place order. Thank you.

Will it be wise to deal directly with them if we don’t converse in Chinese? If anything goes wrong or if we need to enquire on something, I believe there will be some difficulties?

Since unifi is providing free upgrade soon, i guess everyone is looking to upgrade their router to get the best possible result.

i recently got my a refurbished unit of ASUS RT-AC68U from taobao for around rm 300. delivery will take around 2 weeks to reach my doorstep.

For those who cant read chinese (like me), i use google translate to help me during the payment process

A quick search at taobao also revealed asus rt-ac86u at around rm 500~

Anyone had experience buying this router from taobao can also share your experience here

hope this helps     

link dead.

What about this?


Well, anyone here bought from TaoBao as well?

Mind to share your experience? 

hi guys, after reading through the thread, I notice there is no mention of any Customs taxes/SIRIM inspection charges levied on the purchase, cause afaik anything that emits signal would kena right?

May I know which delivery option did you guys choose that have avoided those procedures/charges?

any taobao link for AC68 ?

Why do you need link? Just search for AC68U in Taobao

i found one not direct ship to malaysia

...and price up already ..
still can find price rm2xx ?

This model can support up to 800mbps? How about wireless? can support or not

Ada, look again
No
If your device can support 800Mb/s on AC, then yes
The router itself supports wireless AC at 1300Mb/s but not a lot of device can attain that speed

How many percentage can it achieve out of it's 1.3gbps if the receiver itself also support up to 1.3gbps since it's wireless.

even a gigabit LAN also wont achieve full 1gbps.

wireless speed are just theoretical. u wont get full speed as advertised.

Hmm.... no choice since wanted cheap router from Taobao. Definitely have some cons. If buy from Lazada cheapest I can find is RM899 which is also from China but the seller is giving 3 years 1 to 1 swap. But have to fork out extra RM350.
