im having issue with tplink c1200 whereby this router prompted ipv6 to my device even i have disabled it from router itself, TIME will only replace this with dlink 882 once my contract hit 12 months, so now i need to find a replacement while waiting for TIME, any router capable of doing what tplink does except the issue and not burn my pocket for time being? suggestion please.

I'm able to hit around 180Mbps only.
If someone able to hit around 500Mbps then it could be my area problem instead of the router.

Looks like Time has started to block some naughty sites.
Previously had no problems accessing these sites.....now they are blocked

Just installed D-Link DIR-882 yesterday.

Did some speedtest with my Note 8
Highest DL Speed
Standing Right Next to the Router: 485mbps
In another Room 10meters away (Note 8): 310mbps
In another Room 10meters away (HP PC with Intel® Dual Band Wireless-AC 3168): 230mbps

Previously using DIR-850.....i would say DIR-882 is a huge improvement.

However, I'm wondering how come my HP PC can only achieve 230mbps, whereas my note 8 can go above 300mbps at the same spot? Any advice?

With 850L I could get only about 250Mbps up and down on 5GHz. With Asus AC86U I can max out my 500Mbps connection, up and down. Client is about 4m away from the router, line of sight.

First have you tried testing the speed via wired connection?

I'm hitting 210-230mbps via 5ghz WiFi connection, standing right next to the router (DIR-850L), like holding the phone & laptop next to it. As I move further away from the router the speed decreases.

What about your hardware at receiving end? Laptop (spec)? Mobile phone (spec)? Might be the limiting factor, just my 2 cent.

Do you guys know how to set static DNS in dir882? I just see DNS relay in the LAN settings

Question for sifus. TIME messaged me to say I got the 500Mbps upgrade, but when I did a speedtest, via LAN to the router, I still get abt 100Mbps. Is there something I'm supposed to do?
LAN cable is a cat5 iirc, if that makes a difference.

Is this a hardware limitation still? Or should I change my cat5 cables to cat6 or something?

Cat 5 limit to 100Mbps only.

You should change to CAT 5E, CAT 6 or CAT 7.

Thanks.

reboot router...using PC with LAN cable and speedtest is 500mbps.
after awhile then redo the speedtest....drop back to 100mbps.
what is the issue here?

Cat 5 limit to 100Mbps only.

You should change to CAT 5E, CAT 6 or CAT 7.

Thanks.

Guess I'm going shopping liao. Thanks!

You want to set to Google DNS and etc?

Thanks.

What's your router model?

Try perform direct connection to ONU.

Thanks.

Just changed all cables to Cat5e, still getting just 100Mbps. Should I contact TIME directly?

Yes, my devices are on static already but I wanted to set the DNS from the router so any device will get the DNS.

TP link AC 1200.. what is ONU?

What's your laptop specs and which router that you're using?
