SPEND SOME MONEY for a better router.

like I said before

many ppl very kiamsiap when it comes to good router but can pay expensive monthly subscription for the internet

this, I cannot brain.

it is like paying ron 100 for kancil 660

those telco supplied router are just plain sucks

get the mid tier router from asus, tp-link is better, bigger ram that can handle bigger traffic, better soc. yes bandwidth is way more important than the latest router available in the market

for example

AX73 5400
under rm500

TP-LINK AX 73 AX5400


OR

if u guys on budget, can consider TP-Link Archer AX53 RM only 215.70 now

Cheap TP-LINK AX53 AX3000 RM215.70

Used set. Only supposed to cost me rm120
It should be a router that came free with an Internet plan I guess.

I went to his place to get it

Then I took his word for it that it works fine

Reach home the on off button macam not registering everytime

But once on can use no problem

So small issue la but I told him n he refund me n said no need take it back to him coz troublesome
Actually I wanted to ask can partial refund or not like give me rm50 refund but he offered upfront full refund so I diam je lol

He also gave me some modem which I have no use for lol

Actually best way is still position one router properly centrally ...but fk... wiring is not as simple as buying a router to easymesh.... need to hide the cables etc... possibly drilling hole..

Btw easymesh ok la , can use 2 router with one acting as mesh extender

It's cheaper than buying a proper mesh extender. But then I feel there's still a temporary loss of connection if I move too fast between the 2 routers. Not sure why. Maybe because it is searching for which one to connect to

Hi  , how to make wifi signal range longer without using a different network?

Can I have a wifi range extender without it cretaing a new network?
basically it just boosts the signal

TLDR: I want extend make it long ,  but no new hole

Better to just pay money to install hardwire along ceiling/walls and put a LAN port in every "house length" of the longhouse.

Then from there just attach a router as wireless AP.

FTTR you need special Huawei hardware to work. Don't need to be so sophisticated. Daily use 100mbps is more than enough already.

if your router user is like 2,3 device and for light usage only then stock router is ok I guess

if more than 10 device connected then good luck with stock router
