Hey everyone, my connection is pretty weak on second floor. Staying in a double story. Sometimes only one bar or two bars. Anyway to improve my connection on second floor? Max speed on second floor is around 10-40 mbps even though my unifi speed is 100mbps. I connected to 2.4Ghz most of the time as it is more stable. But 5Ghz is more weak on second floor. So normally i use 5Ghz when i am at living room.

Hi, may I know what's your current router model?

Thanks.

budget hundred some thing bro

most likely you can only get AC1200 range and below.. tight budget hahaha..

Mercusys AC12G is the only thing within your budget that’s better than the stock router.

i got this spare new router.. never use before..

Don't get Airties 4830, I tested it and it is not really that great.

Skip the E4 with 100Mbps Ethernet port and get the better M4. It can function as a router as well but it cannot support VOIP.

House type: Landed intermediate house
Size of house: 2 floors, 2800 sqf maybe
Features required: -
Number of devices connected to WiFi: 6-10 or so (not all at once all the time)
Internet Speed: 100 Mbps
Budget: RM1K or so

Hi Sifus, need to upgrade my current Linksys router to boost my WiFi signals.

Currently: Wifi router located in upstairs corner bedroom. My TV Box (only supports 2.4 GHz) is in living room downstairs.

I’m trying to boost or only dedicate the 2.4 GHz to the TV Box and have the other devices use the 5 GHz signal if possible. If not then the 2.4 GHz has to be shared. Currently the 5 GHz is fairly weak outside the bedroom where the router is located.

I’m looking to get the highly recommended ASUS RT-AC86U (local unit) to replace the current router. I’ve seen some complaints about it having issues - even the local unit but maybe the people complaining are just being louder. The AC88U is out of budget unless really recommended.

Any advice is welcomed. Thanks in advance.

P/s I’ve attached pics of my current setup. The Cisco / Linksys is my WiFi router. Using the Maxis free tower (technicolor brand) to login with their gateway. I changed from Unifi to Maxis that’s why the Fiber box is TM brand.

Look I already Bought Linksys ea7500 Router it was very good at early days, but from past few days a new problem occurred Linksys ea7500 Keeps Dropping Internet Connection on the random basis I think I select the wrong Router, If anybody faced such kind of issue please suggest me for fix it.

to fix this issue, you need turn off ipv6 connection. you need to change wifi channel on 2.4GHz & 5GHz to fix/static channel. 2.4Ghz just go with 20MHz only and pick wireless mode Wireless-N only. For 5Ghz pick just go with 40MHz Change 5ghz network mode to 802.11 a/n Only. Most of linksys router users have this kind of problem, after someone find the issue, many user tried this method. Really works.

Get mesh wifi. I recommend the Deco M9 Plus.

If you have a 2K budget, settle for something like the RT-AC86U twin pack AiMesh.

The only thing capable for 800Mbps mesh WiFi and it is the same size as GT-AC2900.

Unless you are comfortable to top up even further for the RT-AX92U with Wireless AX. This is even smaller than RT-AC86U but comes with Tri-Band.
