another seller from Tmall (not asus one), direct shipping of coz.

not sure why u keep asking 3rd party forwarder or not, nowadays you can buy most of the stuff from taobao without 3rd party just fine  laugh.gif

I seldom buy directly from taobao ever since got lazada/shopee...

I bought mine from Official Asus Tmall store, at 1st I thought how come all the routers sold there are out of stocks... Until I spoke with their CS, only know that if the delivery address is Malaysia, their system will show out of stock. So I change it to my forwarder address, immediately can see the remaining stocks from them...

And the seller told me the reason is because Malaysia restricted direct buying router from taobao, not sure whether is all brand or just Asus... Also claim that if direct shipping, mostly will be held by custom... Thats why I don't dare to use direct shipping even other sellers do provide it~

Guys, I received a waybill number like this CNMYG = GDEX. How do I track the progress of my shipment? Taobao tracking stopped upon arrival at the warehouse. Thanks.

I'm wondering of the same thing. How to find or see tracking number after warehouse?

Yay my AC-86U is on the way to my house. No issue with customs.
Purchase at Asus official Tmall using ECTbuy third party forwarder and Poslaju.
About 7 days to arrived no bad I would say for that price.

Those who bought from official asus tmall, free gifts(fan) shipped together with router? Was told it's shipped separately, that's why my agent still have not shipped it out from china.

I typically avoid DHL/FedEx/UPS these big shipping companies as they typically go by the books strictly. Meaning they will declare the item clearly hence it has much higher chance getting held up by customs.

Same price 779, free fan for first 500 orders only.
Why you can buy on 11.10? That day already out of stock when I check.

Is shipping/courier company from China/MY not working on weekends? Cause my tracking number stop updating since Friday...

PM the China forwarder, they say Monday will update it.

Just to check with you guys as I seldom buy from oversea also.

All the while I thought local courier such like Poslaju, Gdex, Skynet are working on Saturday, Sunday I'm not sure...

It's normal, no update on weekends, if you lucky maybe there is an update on Saturday. Usually they will update on Monday if there is any

i should mention, the ac68U will only do 300Mb/s in malaysia at best (gotta add pppoe and vlan) while the AC86U will do 500+Mb/s because the CPUs in them are very very different generations and have different hardware in them. The AC68U does not have actual hardware acceleration that other routers have and broadcom was late in coming out with CPUs with hardware processing for NAT and other things.

Yeah...me too not running at full speed of 500mbps for AC68, just 489mbps
