time for you to limit his port. :-p LOL
good that you found the root cause, else you might be cracking your head.

hi guys,

Anyone knows where can i download the latest Time BB firmware for DIR 850L? i can't seem to find from dlink MY website - it's only showing firmwares for TM/Unifi.

Thanks!

I did test by turning off all the AP units (I have 3 covering the property) and was only able to attain shy of 280M wirelessly while im about the living room area within 2 to 3 meters away from the router. Later in the day, technical support came and tried their best at optimizing the 3 AP locations for the setup but still failed to attain even 200M from these APs. Dissatisfactory report filed but further than this I'm not sure what could be done as the other fact about this entire bundle from Time is that this 2 in 1 router/ont does not have a readily available WAN port for me to install a 3rd party router without having to go through some further tinkering. Does Time still provide the usual ONT together with a regular router like before rather than these poorly marketed gimmick of a mesh? If these came free I'd not complain, but I paid quite a heft getting these 3 units.

Hi, thank you for the valuble feedback.
As for now, we are only able to obtain speed near to 200Mbps if connected to the satellite units. Will do more on-site testing & feedback. Meanwhile feel free to continue with the tuning session with the current SI.

Yes, you will need to configure your router to be in AP mode in this case.

Thanks.

Is this mesh integrated with modem in it? (i doubt so)

Are you getting good speed on wired connection at the main mesh node? (if yes, then your wireless connectivity in between mesh nodes need to be checked, see what is the optimal position to place them)

Hi guys, need some advice. Been using time for many years with the trashcan router. Looking at the website, it now uses the huawei routers. Are they any good? Thinking of resigning a new contract to get the newer routers. Is it worth it?

Thanks jjj2. I will look into that and also seek alternatives from Time cust service as well.

I have no idea if this device is really mesh integrated or not but all I know is that all new Time subscriptions now comes with this complimentary HG8145V5 optical network router that acts as both the fibre terminal with routing capabilities, thus removing the need for having 2 separate devices as how it was bundled before (ONT + additional router eg. TP-link Archer C7 or something). Hence saving cost on CPE. More info on this device.

Wired speed from the ONR is good, 500M as advertised. Wired speed from any of the "mesh" aka APs are around ~200-250M. I will try to further attempt different location to see if it helps although the techs have also tried their best to help with this.

what router are you using? and also the router settings? i can only get 850mbps in speedtest using lan cable

Viewing from signal strength & penetration power, there is a significant leap.

Hi any time agent here? Need help as i cannot pick the date for installation.





Thanks

The appointment date can't be selected due to internal infrastructure upgrading process and there might be some delays for the installation.

Sorry for the inconvenience caused.

not gonna lie, my head was buzzing with everything i want to do with my connection speed, thank god for the indian youtube techtips. if not i would've shell out for the 40m cat7 cable the whole shebang.

and for the bugger, his own repeater is the downside hes barely getting 200mbps out of 1gbps because he uses out old unifi tplink router.

Ok thanks for the info. I hv terminate the old acc. Already registered new acc to 500mbps. Then now delay coz upgrading infrastructure. Can i just call in to extend / delay my old termination date? Of not then no internet while waiting they finished the upgrade. 😓😓😓

Kindly refer to the agent/dealer that you deal before.

Or contact CS @ 1800181818 for this issues.

Hi guys, so just an update - I didn't buy the range extender as suggested by another forumer but I managed to borrow an old extender TP Link 850RE v1. It seemed the speed remains the same or sometimes worst. So now thankfully I got some gift from my company and I'm planning to use that money to buy new router to replace the stock EC230-G1. I'll probably take it with me when I move out then.

So can anyone suggest decent router below RM200 budget? I'm looking at TP Link C80 at the moment.
