buy a repeater

What does they mean by "Router/access point mode" in their specification?

So ur configuration is :

Mesh A connect to router via lan

Mesh B and C placed in other parts of the house without Lan


Right?

If I can use it as router, then I prefer to not use unifi router since it is ugly. I don't need more than 1 ethernet ports since everyone is using wifi in my house. Even TV also I use wifi instead of LAN cable.

Ah. That sucks.
I guess repeater/extender is the way to go.

Also wanna sell your powerline? Huehuehuehie

excerpts from his review


ASUS AiMesh is the most feature rich and flexible mesh WiFi system in the market today. ASUS RT-AC67U is an AC1900 mesh WiFI system unlike more mesh WiFi system you have seen in the market. It is developed to cover your entire home with strong WiFi coverage and fast WiFi speed.

The performance of the RT-AC67U is really impressive. Previously, the WiFi speed at point D is barely usable due to multiple walls in between and the use of metal door in my apartment. By having the RT-AC67U mesh WiFi system, it effectively improve the WiFi speed and coverage in my entire apartment. The AiMesh node will help due to my rectangular shape layout. There is only so much a WiFi router can transmit due to regulation.

Yep.

You might want to check on reviews if the deco can be used as a router to confirm.

4 storey

only 1 repeater

modem+router in 3rd floor
repeater on 2nd floor

Yeah. I have been reading reviews, but I didn't really pay attention on the router part. I need to re-read and look for the keyword

One more thing I was wondering, is it worth to pay more for M9 Plus or M5 is more than enough? Did you make research on that before?

TS, get professional help since all this is new to you. dont waste time and money trying out solutions when you dont know the source of the problem.

just my 2sen

I gave it away haha. You can consider repeater/extender or wire if its not too much of a hassle. When i moved into my new place I had CAT6 cables pulled from the fibre modem to the unifi router on the ground and one from there to another router acting as an accesspoint in my study.


I was using a TP-Link and if was lucky i got anywhere from 10 to 50 mbps. And it wasnt stable. My luck i guess.

how big is your mansion boss?

get the ASUS RT-AC67U review by blacktubi before,can check my reply above

mesh wfi

TS

this one :

but ayam not sure if mine is ac1200 or ac 1300 ...cant remember

no need to change the unifi modem

Just use mesh wifi. Any brand can do if for 2 story 100mbps speed. Very easy to setup. Font bother about repeater/range extender bullshit.

Deco m4 is enough for 2 node less than rm 400

repeater is always 50/50 I kid you not-definitely for TS who seems clueless about all this

during normal days it works as it should, but on some days when u need it the most it will gone haywire and you need to start all over again with the setup

good if you have extra router to play around

not good if you dont have any and thinking to save some money and buy one

dont waste your money boss for that
