Ok, try again

hi, i will like to ask whats the best vdsl2 modemn ?

Depends on best in which term you are referring to. You may consider TP-LINK VR600V, a AC1600 VDSL modem router, and quite strong in every spec.

if i m finding the best wifi coverage n signal strength ?

Which model of router you are using now? So easier to make a comparison.

Hi forummers,

Would need a favour from you guys to recommend me a good router for my unifi. I’ve been using unifi for years, couldn’t remember when I start using probably 8-9 yrs ago. Since then I’m using the stock router innacomm rgx4400. Lately after been turboed to 500mbps connection become very bad.

I’m looking for a router to replace this. My budget is only around rm500.

Can you guide me which one I can buy? My usage is just mobile gaming sometimes, nextflix wired to my TV, laptop on WiFi, another tv upstairs using WiFi and want to add desktop to my house on WiFi as well. I do download as well from time to time. Another thing is I’m working from home now and and need a stable connection especially using Skype for business, every time I wanted to share screen or even view shared screen it always have en error and only wired connection can solve this. I’m suspecting because of the old router.

One of the forumers here has suggested to get ac2300, I saw from ookas around 550, do you think I can get a good stable connection up to 500mbps using this router or is there any other suggestion

Thanks in advance for your recommendation

Yes. You should have changed the router a long time ago. Get the C2300.

I guess the Archer C2300 will be a great choice for you. Relatively inexpensive for the performance it offers. As for share screen, it depends on the WiFi ability of your device as well.

Another model worth considering is the Asus RT-AC86U, legendary performance but higher price.

if you can add another RM150 budget (buy from tmall), you may get ASUS RT-AC86U, and flash it with Asuswrt-Merlin firmware, it's the best performance:price router for 802.11ac.

if not, wait for 802.11ax to be a norm in the market for future proof router.

Anyone know will mesh better setup for two storey house? Not very big house semi d. Now using 68u but at 1st floor cannot get full speed 500mbps. Thinking shud go mesh or 86u. Tried pc and iphone all speed max can get is 300+mbps.

Since you are already on the Asus ecosystem, why not get the RT-AC86U and use the RT-AC68U as AiMesh node

The best of both worlds.

mine is the tmobile version lol.. on some china merlin firmware. Not sure can flash back to normal one with aimesh or not.

tm gave me Netis DL4480V1 AC1200 Wireless Dual Band VDSL2
not a great modemn...

You may consider TP-LINK VR600V, and AC1600 VDSL modem router. It definitely have better coverage and stability compare to that DL4480. Another lower price option is D-Link DSL-2877AL, this is a wifi coverage king.

No matter which solution you use, you will not get full speed as you just stand next to the router. Also don't forget the client (your device) WiFi's specs does affect the final speed as well. For mesh WiFi, maybe you can consider TP-Link Deco M9 Plus.

thanks man
if price is not a problem, wats the best 1 ?

The best VDSL modem router money can get you will be ASUS DSL-AC68U. Not sure if they still sell it in Malaysia.

I would skip the D-Link as I kept having issues getting the firmware to work properly.

Another option will be TP-Link VR600V, not the best but it is much better than the NETIS.

I see.. so i should just downgrade my internet instead since i cant fully utilize the speed.. Because i cant pull cable around it will be too messy.

thks again...
wat about this https://shopee.com.my/Asus-DSL-AC52U-AC750-...0984.1295106456
is this better than TP-Link VR600V ?

I don't have experience with the DSL-AC52U but the VR600V looks better on paper.
