That means no VOIP phone? Sorry not sure what's the purpose of VLAN profile, do explain.

VLAN tagging are required for Maxis and Unifi to work as they implement VLAN tagging, so if not VLAN profile, you might not be able to implement VLAN tagging, therefore router can't work for both Unifi and Maxis.

1. Transmit power is limited in the CFE. Flashing any firmware doesn't make any difference. Same reason to why China ASUS router always default to Chinese language no matter what firmware is flashed.



2. For ASUS Maxis use case, they will retain the old router as just a VOIP bridge. All routing is handled by ASUS router. Refer to my image above.

3. For TP-Link, if you wish to retain VOIP, you will need to use the C5V before the custom router which is counter intuitive.

Edit: Newer batches of China ASUS router may not come with VLAN profile now.

Refered to your comment no3 is not true. I bought a TP Link Archer A9 last week and it's so easy to setup the VOIP ..it comes with all ISP preloaded VLAN profile for TM and especially Maxis. It's just took me 5 minutes to setup and now Archer A9 as a main router and Maxis C5v as VOIP router. Surprisingly I don't even need to change any setting in the Maxis C5v router, everything just plug and play..

Thanks for the input. I just tested last week with TP-Link Archer A7 and Archer A6 on a friend's property. Both are not working. Although there's dial tone on the VOIP phone, we cant phone or receive call.

Swapped to my own RT-AC86U and it works .

Another user on Maxis thread reported this issue as well. Example

Can you verify you actually got VOIP working and not just dial tone? Please report the firmware version and which VLAN profile you use. A screenshot will be helpful.

EDIT: This installation come with NETIS router and Huawei HG8240 ONU. Fibre installation.

Update to the latest firmware ( month of May 2019) Use the original preinstall maxis profile. Don't do custom profile . It works on my Archer A9 router.

Yup, I used the provided profile for both A6 and A7 and it is non functioning.

Mind to share a screenshot of the profile page?

hi, currently my Maxis upgraded to 300Mbps package.

current device is :
BTU :  TM ONU Alcatel Lucent I240G
Maxis Router : Archer c5v with VoIP

these device can tahan 300Mbps? need call Maxis ppl upgrade?
another thing is i plan to get tplink Archer A6 / tenda AC10u as AP for my house 2nd floor. (got ethernet outlet)
No problem right? or got any better advice?

This is how I setup for my house la.

1. Install AC86U at the living room.
2. Buy D26G Mercury Router and connect to AC88U via WDS. You may connect your PC to D26G via LAN cable.
3. If you have remaining routers just set them up as repeaters.
Everything bought from Taobao.

AC88U : RM 542  AC2600 rating
D26G: Mercury Router RM 180  AC2600 rating

If you have more budget can buy more D26G and setup around the house and place beside your work station or buy Asus AC68U and setup as Media Bridge.

not include shipping fees yet. The setup above is already adequate

I have tried the setup above, able to achieve 300 Mbps ++

Hi,

I recently bought a Mercury D26G router from China. I saw your forum there that you have configured this D26G router at your house.

This router only has Chinese firmware. I tried to configure the router key in ID and password to dial up Unifi but sadly it wouldn't work, I have contacted the seller and Unifi (release mac address for old router too) but it still can't connect.

I need your advice on how to set up the D26G router, is there has any special way to configure or other setting need to change.

Thanks
Kenneth

Hi

I'm on Unifi 800 mbps, currently using stock TP Link C1200 router but Wifi does not reach some areas of my house even on 2.4G.
Thinking of upgrading to TP Link C3150. Is this the best value for its price range around or are there other routers i should consider? Budget <1k

Thanks

Thanks guys. I'll check out the Asus AC86. Is the extra RM300-400 translate into better performance vs the TP Link?
