I have 2 months left in the contract with Unifi. The modem has a red light even after restart.

What are the on-site technician repair fees? The operator claims that it will cost RM 50 if the error is on my side but I am afraid they will ask to sign contract 2 years more just to restore service. My plan is the 200+ with TV which I never watch. Need guidance on what to expect later.

If ONU/cable issue they will fix it for free. Contract will refresh if need to replace router, which you can decline and buy own router.

Today my home finally receive the free 1gbps free upgrade. The technician changed my separate modem & router into single D-link AX3000 combo box (black). I just wonder is that normal my LAN speeds only around 940mbps? Tested on ookla speedtest app.

Unfortunately when tested the ONR as router, it is 1052mbps but when do bridging, it maxed out at 923mps using Ookla Speedtest between 1pm to 3pm Saturday.
So the 940 might be true but the upload can achieve 500Mbps++.

So sacrificing abt 100Mbps to allow usage of my own Asus router with its more powerful features and reach is worth it tho. Upload speed to double up.

Anyway sunday 10pm did another test...can hit 300+download and 100+ upload only. Will try test again at midnight to see if non-peak hour can achieve back 900+.
Hopefully it is not issue that some face, dropping to 300+ at all times regardless of peak hour.

Anyway, you can do just like what I did, ask the TM Tech to setup ONR as router, then save the ONR setting up in case you ever what to use it as router mode during emergency case. Then switch it to bridge permanently as use as primary modem. Keep the old Huawei as backup modem in case ONR bridging is not stable.

As for 2.5GBe, i think I might as make mistake here, I saw 2.5Gbe written somewhere..but now comes to think about it, it might or might not be the Dlink ONR.. sweat.gif coz my black Asus router also got 2.5GBe port...I have to go back to take a look, maybe my memory got mixed up.

Black D-Link has 2.5Gbe port

The 300+Mbps is a known issue of this D-Link
It's mentioned in some other thread
Reboot and you'll get your speed back

If replaced with 3rd party onu, the speed is always stable

Like that cialiat, if consistent 300Mbp (i will check repeated for few days), coz rebooting every day is too troublesome for long term instead of the fire and forget using Huawei ONU.
I might have to switch back to Huawei ONU.

Can get 3rd party ONU? How about the config to make ONU work?

Is normal if pc port is 1gbps, or router port also 1G, not 2.5G

Completely expected for 1Gbps speed, because of Gigabit Ethernet Limitations, the max speed you will ever see is 940Mbps due to overhead

only if you have the 2Gbps plan that gives a router with 2.5Gbe port and your pc also has 2.5Gbe port, then you can get over that speed

I’m using Asus RT-AX86U which has a 2.5GBe port, paired with the black D-Link ONR with 2.5GBe port as well. I run the speedtest from within the router itself (to eliminate that my computer only has 1GBe port), the max speed achieved is also around 940-950mbps.

Does bridge mode actually give a lower speed? hmm.gif

you probably could reuse the old huawei if you copy over the config details

otherwise Anime4000 has their solution for sale, which is a SFP ONU Stick

Wait...I tot I could plug in Old Huawei and connect to Asus Router, it should work straight away, isn't it. Since the only thing that change is the PPOE password (they reset the PPOE password that is already in my Asus router. Do I need to re-configure the old Huawei ONU?

Darn, I forgot to re-test the old Huawei ONU connection after they setup bridging for the Dlink ONU.

Mine, PPPOE password remains the same, so no need to change anything.
After he left, I just reconnect the fiber/cables to my old Huawei ONU to revert to my old setup.

Not going to use the black D-Link ONR.

Like that, the old ONU can work straight away...Ok. Thanks.
Will try test if it remains at 300Mbps or can goes up to 900+ at non-peak hour. If consistently 300Mbps, will abandon the ONR and use back Huawei ONU.

Flash with openwrt firmware. Use it till it gave up. I saw a post in FB (TM Unifi Members), dude used back his openwrt-dir842 and gave up his Skyworth ONR. Don't sell the router. I prefer router designs to be small and sleek like the good old DIR-615 days. Nowadays router is too bulky and more into selling compared to those days where the router only fulfils its duty, and ability to flash custom firmwares liike ddwrt, and openwrt.

Edit:
Glad wired vpn routers still uses USFF chassis. Another reason to opt for them if you are networking enthusiast and plan your home networking, especially likes those who setup their own homelab.

I flashed it with openwrt but max speed can't go above 150mbps, mine is 300 mbps plan, dunno why. And 1 of my phone connected but no internet access, others is working.

I see, then probably is limited by my pc port, since I tried plug 2.5Gbe port on router still same.

I have a copy ori China X540-AT2 bought it online long ago. Until now its still working fine both ports. I think for older model intel NIC , its always either copy ori or 'refurbish' version. Mine does not look like the pic though. My heatsink is exactly like original intel version.
