QUOTE(FusionXY @ Nov 3 2018, 01:24 PM) What's your C1200 hardware version? thanks. i thought V3 would meant a later firmware version. It actually refers to the hardware version.Normally TIME provide V1 to every customers. Please do upgrade the firmware according to which version of hardware and software. If V1 then V1 And so on. You cannot install V3 firmware to V1 firmware. Doing it so may brick the firmware or void the warranty from TIME. Thanks. |

QUOTE(FusionXY @ Nov 3 2018, 02:49 PM) TP-Link Routers have different Hardware version. Thanks for explaining. updated with the latest correct version and not managed to exceed 300Mbps over 5GHz Wifi. No other devices connected to the router at the same time. Will try wired when i can find a cat6 cableLatest version got more improvements than old version. Some brands/models have different hardware version TP-Link Archer C9 latest hardware version is V5 and mine is V2. The old TP-Link logo is the full word in Capital letters while the new logo is small letters as my avatar. Thanks. |

QUOTE(AVFAN @ Nov 19 2018, 01:06 AM) guess u r new to this section. my issue with the router was not rebooting, but losing the 5Ghz wifi. this is after keeping it on more than a week. had to reboot it once every two weeks to get around thisthat tplink is notorious for rebooting although it doesn't happen to all. read the associated router threads, u find lots of comments. that dlink is not too bad, i used it for a few days, no rebooting. |

QUOTE(AVFAN @ Nov 19 2018, 10:45 AM) that, i hv also seen. mine's from TIME, but yeah planning to upgrade the router but not so soonbottomline is... TM's stock routers are low level... very common to find them giving irritating problems like that. which is why many will spend own money to buy own better router. it is normal for a decent router to keep working good for days, weeks and months w/o need to reboot! |

QUOTE(crittertoo @ Dec 18 2018, 12:48 PM) Wired, i can have about 500+ Mbps but no way near 800 Mbps. Reverting back to the TM supplied router, i get around 500 Mbps as well. thats really bad, my 500M line, will get between 250M to 300M on iphone.I have a Iphone X which I have made sure it's on the 5ghz band for the Linksys wrt 1900 acs and cisco 2700 ap - both yields only 90+ mbps on speedtest ios app Any ideas ? |

QUOTE(blacktubi @ Feb 20 2020, 10:47 AM) MU-MIMO is a standard feature and OFDMA is present on both models. interesting, any theory why both features perform inconsistently..?Honestly, I disabled both of them out of the box. All the consumer routers I tested perform inconsistently when both features are enabled and didn't seem to show huge improvement. It's fine if your Internet plan is just 100Mbps due to the 10/100 Ethernet ports. If you are on a budget, I would suggest Deco M3 instead. |

QUOTE(blacktubi @ Feb 20 2020, 03:42 PM) Implementation differs from vendor to vendor. WiFI 6 is supposed to fix this but it is still an early stage to comment. thanks for the link and interesting link. seems like a dead end tech and just a marketing tool now.One of the reasons why not a single Apple products support MU-MIMO. Refer to SNB test below. https://www.smallnetbuilder.com/wireless/wi...-t-need-mu-mimo are you gonna review the Asus RT-AX56U...? i'm considering this even though it's more expensive than the AX50 cos it supports AiMesh. Have the option to upgrade when i move to a bigger place. |
