If you see the 2 options as per the image below, always choose the first option

Seller say cant direct mean their local shipment wont directly send to MY , it is send by Taobao  . Taobao direct 直运 mean item will send to their shipment warehse then straight send to u without waiting . If u pick option 2 集运 mean collect all items baru send , choose tis if u buy multiple items and whn all items reach warehse , u baru send them to MY 1 shot .

Nope. I bought my RT-AC86U from Lazada
But I've bought hundreds of times from Taobao using that method

Successfully bought my GT-AC5300 with RMB 1789 from Official Asus Tmall store. Was worry as at the beginning couldn't select the router to make payment inside my cart. When it is able to select, suddenly my the taobao app shows that my CC is not able to make the payment.

When I was about to call the CC cs, the transaction suddenly being acceptable (after few tries) and waiting for the OTP to arrive...

Feel relaxed after payment accepted and back to here again~

I'm very sure as I've been fact finding since a week ago. The reason why their items always show SOLD OUT is because they do not ship directly to Malaysia, just like what you say conflict with Asus Malaysia.

Thats why I said earlier, need to use 3rd party forwarder. Let the seller ship the router to the 3rd party forwarder warehouse in China, then the forwarder will handle the shipment from their side.

Mind to share which seller you purchase from? Is it from taobao or tmall and how much you get for it?

Nice...

This was one of the store I enquire previously, their GT-AC5300 free gifts are nice, but too bad the CS from Official Asus Tmall did solve a lot of my queries, so I feel bad if I didn't buy from them.

So how much is the total you pay inclusive of the shipping fee back to MY?

It's a known issue but the HyppTV will work, it will just take longer time to load
Power off your HyppTV STB then turn it on again, but this time don't rush to run the HyppTV, just let it load at the main screen for a while
