this firmware version 10.0.5.41 is for AX3 Pro chinese version only

Tried the above settings for IPv6, but at About Router page, IPv6 says Prefix and DNS server - Unable to obtain

Anyone with the same issue and how to overcome?

Are you using Maxis fibre? Do you have a public IP address?

Disclaimer: I do not own any Huawei AX3. The picture is for unifi setting. I just share the pic and the settings below are just my guessing.

If both of above are true, try this.

Type: SLAAC, if cannot then use DHCPv6 or 6to4

I'm using Unifi
Can only use SLACC option , DHCPv6 does not work.

Filled in the followings:

- 2001::1 as prefix
- DNS : 2001:4860:4860::8888
2001:4860:4860::8844

Result shows: prefix - unable to obtain.


Any ideas on how to resolve?

Then just use SLAAC.

using SLACC but result still showing: prefix - unable to obtain.

guy, currently my house use 1 router (asus 55uhp) + 3 repeater .....
if i do mesh setup, i just buy 4 mesh and set it up (drop asus router) or do i need anything ?
Current Router and modem at 2 1/2 floor back (room)
One repeater at 1 floor front. (room)
One repeater at ground floor middle (main hall and sub hall)
One repeater at 1/2 floor back (dinning and kitchen)
* my house have some odds design,it split to front and back part, middle part is high roof front ground to third floor.
current fibre speed is 300mbps.

should i go for this or xiaomi mesh ? me ok with both device.

Hi Sifus,
I just bought a AX3 local unit. Can I connect a AX3 China to it as Mesh?

Walao, just finished setting up. The WiFi speed is much slower than my previous free WiFi d'link ac1200 from unifi?? Any idea why?

I saw 1 review on youtube, the guy compared it with his TIME fibre tplink router (looked like a C6) results were not impressive at all, minor improvement and in some spots the stock router was faster.
He tested on a 100Mbps account though

AX3000 slower than AC1200. Something is not right.

here's a screenshot from the review


not much of an improvement if you ask me

Same issue that I am facing now. Constantly drop below 20mbps even within 10m.

After restart, reset, called Unifi to reset port. Everything still the same. (try all available settings on first day). But after 2 days using it. Today the speed is very good and stable. I have no idea why but will just continue to monitor.

Dear sifu here
Plan buy 2Unit ax3 To setup mesh WiFi
Upstairs Unifi UNO and 1 AX3 as based
Downstairs another AX3 To increase WiFi coverage and connect my old pc with Lan cable.
This old pc will connected with internet?

is that any different local vs china unit ?
plan to get 3 unit ax3 pro from china for my house, just not sure abt it now.

if vlan support not required then better get china unit as msian firmware unlikely to keep up with latest version

hi, plan buy 1 Unit ax3 To setup mesh WiFi (to another room) with time fiber router wifi connect on another room
is it likely? some say "yes", some told me "no, at least 2 units"
pls advice...thank you

u need to be in same brand to use mesh wifi.

or i got it wrong?

The AX3 isn't a mesh-capable router. And yeah, I believe all mesh routers are model/brand specific.

You can extend normally by making the second router as an access point by connecting the cable from the main router. Or use the second router as a wireless repeater, but only as a last resort because wireless repeater speed, latency, and stability sucks.
