C5400X is better.
Just done my review for that router.

That router got some ridiculous specs. It boots under 30 seconds.

tried to upgrade my TP Link Archer C1200 from TIME to V3 but failed. any ideas..?

thanks. i thought V3 would meant a later firmware version. It actually refers to the hardware version.

Good day,
I've few questions and thanks for enlightenment !

Questions :
1) What is the recommended router to support 100mb broadband connection speed?

2) What is the recommended router to support 500mb broadband connection speed?

3) I've existing Dlink DIR-615 router, which currently used for 50mb package, with the new package of 100mb, do i need to change my router in order to detect 100mb connection speed ?

Thanks

Many thanks for guidance, really appreciated it !

Anyone using TP-LINK AC1750? Thinking of getting one to replace AC1200.

Plan is 300Mbps. Just want to replace the stock router.

Hi, I've recently purchased Amplifi HD to replace my default D-Link DIR-850L provided by time.

I'm having hard time setting up the Amplifi HD. It will auto-disconnect and says can't detect the internet.

I've tried a few ways, can't seem to get it work.

Need help.

unifi notify me that i will get 500mbps in the future.. right now, the speed still 50mbps.. my c7 is v4 and LAN cable is not possible due to location problem.. so far, for 2.4ghz, both router can give 50++mbps even at the kitchen but for 5ghz, it will vary according to device range, cannot get full speed, needs to be really close or no obstacles.. my budget is around rm800 and below.. it will be nice if i can get only one router functioning, less hassle.. but it may give wifi coverage problem because my house is 2 storey bungalow..
c3150 can cover whole house? i noticed, the price is quite good for its tier..

@ dear all WiFi Router Sifu and expert,

Which one is a better Router WiFi between D-Link DIR 842 and TP-Link Archer C1200. I have a unit of both of these model and are deciding which one to use at my home Unifi 100 Mbps, stability is an important factor for me, such as able to last for a long uptime without the need of occasionally on/off the WiFi Router.

Both devices are around the same price, and both models are AC1200 lower-end budgeted Router WiFi and competing against each other directly.

According to blacktubi.com review, the D-Link DIR 842 wireless performance is tested actually faster than the TP-Link Archer C1200.
DIR-842 comes with 4 ext antenna while Archer C1200 comes with 3 ext antenna.
Archer C1200 has a more solid exterior material built than the DIR-842.

The DIR-842 comes with the MU-MIMO support while the Archer C1200 does not. However, DIR-842 lacks a USB port while the Archer C1200 comes with one USB port.

Thanks in advance.

Actually, I have a unit of both of the model. My brother applied an unifi line at his house and TM gave him the D-Link DIR-842 but my brother not using it so he passed to me, while another friend of mine applied for a TIME broadband Internet line at his house and TIME provided him a TP-Link Archer C1200, but he was not using it too, so now I got both unit of DIR-842 and Archer C1200 Router WiFi for free. 

Gonna replace the TM RG4223 resident gateway the square look Router WiFi that provided by TM which I am using it for almost 2 years by now.

I believe either one (the DIR-842 or the Archer C1200), although is the lower-end model, will both be a significant upgrade over my current RG4223 Router WiFi.     

Currently already replaced the RG4332 and using the Archer C1200 now but noticed that at one time the Router WiFi rebooted itself, I guess maybe the uptime was too long and need to reboot ?

the USB port I attached to the desk fan as of now, but it is not an important thing and a non-factor to me.

Yes, the old RG4332 is a single band of 2.4 Ghz WiFi only, some more the WiFi was not so stable, sometimes WiFi connected but no internet access, sometimes not able connect to the WiFi at all, need to on/off the Router WiFi when this issue encountered and it occurred quite frequently too.

Maybe I will use ad test the Archer C1200 for a month then try for the DIR-842 too.

Hi, not sure if it's correct place to ask, need help for Maxis Fiber setup.

I just bought a Tenda AC6 as standby unit while waiting my defected ASUS to return.
'
I follow the manual instructions, to key in correct user name, password, 'PPPOE connection', 'Maxis profile' just like I did when setting up the aforementioned ASUS router back then. However after the setup completed, the internet couldn't connect no matter how many times i reboot/reset. I'm very sure the user name & password is correct.

However when I reconnect the Maxis provided Technicolor router, it can connect without any problems.

Is that anything I did wrong during the setup? Or did I get a faulty unit?

Pls Help, thanks.

If select Maxis profile, there's no VLAN option to set as it does it automatically

If select Manual, WAN VLAN ID is 621, then LAN VLAN ID is 823 correct?

Thanks.

Just tried that, failed 

BTU was connected at LAN1, just now changed to LAN2, still same

Hello,

Is Tenda AC10U suitable for 2 storey house? Current supplied tplink C1200 not stable enough. The signal seems strong, but quite slow at the upper floor. And, I greatly appreciate any recommendation for router around RM200-Rm250 budget.

Oh, I'm using the 300mbps turbo.

Appreciate your help. Thanks

I recommend the TP-Link Archer C6. One of the best affordable routers I tested.

Alright, will look into it. Thanks!
Mine is 300 mbps.

Im currently using Asus AC66U (router) + TP LINK T9E (wifi adapter)

my package is 500mbps but with current setup, my wifi speed only top at 300mbps only.

Should i change to Asus AC86U or TP LINK C5400X for better value and performance ?

Need helps or recommendation for my case and option below as Im a beginner in networking stuffs:

My Unifi have been Turbo-ed to 500Mbps and am searching for better router than my old TRG212M. Read on the Unifi page and this page I have narrowed down to two options. D-Link DIR882 and TP-Link C2300. I know both of this router are more than capable for 500Mbps based on reading your review also. 800Mbps also can iinm. At least in the future if I upgrade dont need to search for new router again. Cables all are already CAT6 throughout my house. There is easily 10 devices using the network, most of it over wifi and smartphones. my house is 3 storey and the BTU and router is in the 2nd floor.

Any expert views or experiences on these two model on my two choices? Or is there any more recommendation other than these two? Same or a bit higher price range is acceptable for me. Tried to consider ASUS range but it is out of my budget already.

hi, could use some experienced suggestion...

currently using Unifi 500Mbps. need WiFi to cover a 50feet x 70feet, double storey area (with brick wall rooms). the router have to be place at one corner so the WiFi will have to cover until 85feet (diagonal). typical connections: 10ish; max connections: 20ish

no option to pull cable or use power line, must use WiFi. intention is to have reliable WiFi coverage. can accept speed drop due to distance. appreciate suggestions to best setup the WiFi? budget rm1k +/-

Googled around, currently looking at either:
1) using TP-Link AC3150 router and one of TP-Link RE650 repeater
2) using only one 'beast' router such as TP-Link AC5400 or AC5400x or D-Link DIR-895L
3) mesh is attractive alternative but i believe will likely be needing quite a few satellite units so might be expensive to setup

What results can he expect with 500mbps and this router at 85ft diagonal distance with 5ghxz, different devices... 2x2, 3x3, 4x4...?
