Hi sifus, I want to ask — is it easy to change to a new ASUS or TP-Link router?
My current router is HG8145V5 (600Mbps). I don’t really have much knowledge about router setup, but based on what I’ve read, the steps are:

1. Get the new router
2. Call TIME CS and switch to Bridge Mode
3. Connect the new router’s WAN port to LAN1 of HG8145V5
4. Log in to the new router and enter PPPoE username & password

Am I correct??

Besides, does any Sifu know what Router fit my neeed? Budget are RM600-800, Apartment, 1400+ft, WiFi 7 if can

600mbps plan, 2desktop PC, 1 TV, 30++ Devices including Smart Electronic and Laptop.

Yes it’s correct. If the WiFi of huawei is still on after, u can log in to it and disable it, since it’s useless now.
As for recommendations, I dont have any.

Yes, connect WAN to LAN1 then choose PPPoE with credentials.

Usually the TIME CS will not turn off the WiFi on the huawei after turning on Bridge Mode. So you will still see the WiFi from the Huawei. But if u try to use it, there won’t be Internet. If you plan to use the same SSID and password on your new router, definitely go and disable the Huawei WiFi, else your devices might connect to it.
