Yes, it worked, thanks  thumbsup.gif

I noticed that in my Firefox settings, the Enable DNS over HTTPS was not ticked. After ticking, and with DNS as Cloudflare one, now can work.

But Chrome still cannot.  whistling.gif

Thanks you alls!  rclxms.gif

Anyone used Deco m4 with their stock dir842 router? What's your take?

Am currently on 100mbps using rtn12hp as repeater but not satisfied hence though of adding Deco m4 to improve it. 2.5 storey with about 2900 sqf

I would suggest removing the stock router and using only the deco as the router + mesh.

Huh? I thought I've to connect the deco to a router ie router -> Deco 1 -> Deco etc? No?

You can refer to this video

If you know your unifi login ID and password, you able use Deco as router.
I using Deco X20 now. thumbup.gif
Can, i use it in deco laugh.gif
You can set at DHCP server there.

X20 has wpa3 and trend internet protection vs m4, correct? I have the login ID...😆

I don't know why but Unifi's default instructions for mesh is to connect it to the stock router and broadcast yet another wifi that will compete with your stock router (they literally tell you to forget the stock router wifi, doesn't even tell you to disable it) while also creating a double NAT

The better way is to just remove the stock router, and make one of the Deco nodes a router. More control, less back doors.

This sounds logical

2 options to use Mesh

1) Stock Router / own router -> Mesh (Access point mode)
or
2) Mesh (Router mode), no longer using stock router.

If you have powerful own router like Mikrotik then option 1 is better. Else option 2 will do.

I have stock dlink dir842 fro TM for the longest time...

Lets assume this...

Lets assume this...

My modem on 1st floor living area, one M4 placed here then another M4 placed on ground floor living area which is approx 15m apart divided by the stairway with no partition in-between.

Would M4 on ground floor gets good connection with main m4 upper floor? Reason thinking of M4 cos got old devices ie laptop/spare phones which is not WPA3 compliant etc

Kindly adv, thanks!

Not sure on how much of a speed boost but the intention is to convert customers to higher speed plans

Basically say you are on 100Mbps right now

They give you free speed boost to 300Mbps for a month

The month goes by, you get addicted to the higher speeds
Then they call you, ask you like or not, maybe offer special plan to keep it at 300

You say yes, then they have successfully made you upgrade your plan, they earn a bit more.

OK... Any chance get the new speed same price with additional contract?

Speed provided by my son..

NOT a chance for that to happen. Malaysia freezes over head to toe before that can potentially happen.

You upgrade? Reset contract period.
You downgrade? Reset contract period.
You ask to replace hardware? Reset contract period.
You negotiate promotional offer? Reset contract period.

You touch TM's subscription? Reset contract period.
*
Going Maxis to register for new promo on 300Mbps at same price am paying unifi. Then maybe TM call back offer same to retain but extended contract should be ok 🤣
