Operating systems it's compatible with:

* Windows 2000/ Windows XP/ Windows Vista/ Windows 7
* Mac OS 10.5/ Mac OS 10.6/ Mac OS 10.7
* Linux

The unit is a breeze to setup with all vital info provided on a large label on the port side of the unit. WiFi security and SSID are predefined and okay to use. For the sake of amusing your neighbours, might I suggest:  http://www.reddit.com/r/AskReddit/co...me_youve_seen/

While WPS is supported, it is turned off by default so a quick visit to the router's config page is required. Both WLAN and WPS have dedicated buttons on the one side of the unit - very handy indeed. The WLAN button activates/deactivates the wireless broadcast while the WPS button controls the WPS broadcast for devices that support it.

On that note, wireless on the unit is not particularly strong. I found in the config that the output power is set by default to 90%. Upping this to 100% hardly improved matters so I personally resorted to a repeating strategy. Hello WPS!

An absolute brilliant range of little devices are the Huawei WS3xx line-up. While other functions are supported, I picked up a few WS322 with the sole intention of repeating my wireless signal.

Key to a good repeating strategy is the central location of the base unit ie. the B593 LTE CPE. The repeaters are then placed at the peripheral of the WiFi range and configured to repeat the WiFi signal. This is quite a simple thing to do, of anyone needs help, just shout.

Since I have quite a large residence, I opted to deploy 3 * WS322 in Repeater Mode. This worked brilliantly but I did notice a few quirks I'm still unsure of. For instance, occasionally I'll get no traffic on the network. Through trial and error I found that by unplugging one or two repeaters, and later plugging them back in, solved the problem. It seems to me that too many WS322 units screws up routing in the network but this is only a hunch. I had an idea that my B593 LTE CPE may be faulty so it has actually been returned and I've got a new one now. I'll report back if this phenomenon persists.

Another oddity I've discovered is that speeds are bets when right up close, or directly connected, to the B593. For instance, my gaming PC is only 1.5 metres away and, while still on wireless, obtains much much better speeds than my phone or tablet. Speedtest have always maintained *not* to test speeds over wireless and I guess this is one of the reasons why.

One major gripe, and Huawei are not alone in this, is that there is no app for controlling the B593. Configuring the unit over a phone is a chore in microfiche efficiency.

Paypal Add Funds Missing Replaced by Top-Up Menu

Yesterday I made a shopping online at eBay.com and purchase a "Strong Rare Earth Magnet Neodymium NeFeB N35 Round Disc" in the first place I know that I have less amount on my Paypal account though I am optimistic that I can just Add Funds on to it.

What surprises me is that the "Add  Funds" button on my Paypal account is gone instead the Menu is being replace by a "Top-Up" sub-menu. Interestingly the Paypal Malaysia have integrate every Paypal members account with the RHB Bank a local Bank that you can send and receive money that makes other users easily to "Add Funds" or "Top-Up" hassle free. But for those whose debit card from Maybank it would be a negative impact to them because there is no such  for none RHB Bank members were they can add money to their Paypal account.

I just want to raise this issue to hose fellow who is having the same problem regarding with this matter, up to now I am stuck because there is no other option for other local banks that I can add more funds to my Paypal account. If somebody have the alternative way in doing so please let me know, will appreciate that  much. :-)

Maxis-Fibre-Internet OpenWrt Custom Router TL-WR740N IPTV

First thing to do is need to reflash the TP-Link TL-WR740N with the third party OpenWrt firwmare, in my case I have downloaded the Attitude Adjustment 12.09, after the reflashing, it will automatically prompted you the Login page and you are ask and required make your password for Linux OpenWrt the wireless router.

Second thing to take note is that TP-LINK TL-WR740N physical ports or WAN/LAN ports will varies the name assignment ports on the OpenWrt logical (internal) ports.

As we can see from the screenshot below from left the WAN port is blue, then LAN ports 1-4 is yellow  respectively.

On the other hand, inside the OpenWrt Switch it would be labeled in different way as to that physical ports that we seen above picture.

The WR740N Switch once it is already brushed with the OpenWrt firmware its logical or  internal Switch, the WAN port now is equivalent to CPU ports as the above shows, then LAN port1 is Switch port2, LAN port2 is Switch port3, LAN port3 is Switch port4 and finally the LAN port4 is Switch port1.

Next thing to do is will configure the Switch ports to the desired VLAN tagging, we will assign VLAN621 and VLAN823 for the Internet and for the IPTV. You can add another VLAN later on if you wish to configure for the ATA VoIP the VLAN822 or VLAN821.

We set the VLAN1 to state "OFF" all the Switch ports from CPU to ports 1-4, then create VLAN621 for the Internet, CPU and Port1 to state "TAGGED" and the rest will be "OFF". Followed by creating  VLAN823 for the IPTV, Switch port CPU and Port1 to state "TAGGED" then "UNTAGGED" on Port2 the rest of the Ports will be remain in "OFF" state.

You can copy and paste my /etc/config/network below just edit it with your desired config settings.

root@OpenWrt:~# cat /etc/config/network

config interface 'loopback'
option ifname 'lo'
option proto 'static'
option ipaddr '127.0.0.1'
option netmask '255.0.0.0'

config interface 'lan'
option type 'bridge'
option proto 'static'
option ipaddr '192.168.254.1'
option _orig_ifname 'eth0 radio0.network1'
option _orig_bridge 'true'
option ifname 'eth0 eth1'
option netmask '255.255.255.240'
option macaddr 'E8:94:F6:01:02:03'

config interface 'wan'
option _orig_ifname 'eth1'
option _orig_bridge 'false'
option proto 'pppoe'
option username '123456@home.maxis.com.my'
option password '1234561'
option ifname 'eth0.621'

config switch
option name 'eth0'
option reset '1'
option enable_vlan '1'

config switch_vlan
option device 'eth0'
option vlan '1'
option vid '1'

config switch_vlan
option device 'eth0'
option vlan '3'
option vid '621'
option ports '0t 1t'

config switch_vlan
option device 'eth0'
option vlan '4'
option vid '823'
option ports '0t 1t 2'

config interface 'IPTV'
option ifname 'eth0.823'
option _orig_ifname 'eth0.823'
option _orig_bridge 'false'
option proto 'static'
option ipaddr '192.168.200.1'
option netmask '255.255.255.0'

As you have notice to my config setting, I have switch or interchange my physical WAN port to LAN port1 while my LAN port1 now is my WAN port. So internally, my logical Switch port now will be CPU=LAN, Port1=WAN, Port2=IPTV.

We need to make DHCP server for the IPTV.

My Firewall settings.

Finally, here's  the status screenshot of my TP-Link TL-WR740N brushed with OpenWrt third party firmware. I have replaced already my MAXIS Technicolor TG784n v3 and now using the TP-Link wireless router.

Enjoy! hope this article will help those fellow Maxis-Fiber-Internet users who are having trouble in setting up their TP-Link TL-WR740N OpenWrt firmware in configuring the VLAN tagging to make work their IPTV and likewise the additional ATA VoIP.

Maxis-Fibre-Internet Technicolor TG784n Custom DNS Solved

Limited and Unable to Change or Customized DNS Server Set When Using Maxis-Fibre-Internet Broadband on Technicolor TG784n Residential Gateway VoIP Wireless Router.

Symptom:

1. Have changed the DNS server sets from router's GUI but still unable to use custom DNS server sets for Maxis-Fibre-Internet Broadband Technicolor TG784n Router.
2. This is because Maxis had hard coded or using their customized firmware for the router. Whatever changes you made for DNS server sets from GUI will not take effect.

Solution:

You've to use telnet/command line to configure the router's DNS set.
Download any free Telnet client from Internet and connect to your gateway.
Popular clients are Putty and Microsoft default Telnet client.
Assuming your default router IP address is 192.168.1.254 if you've never changed this.

1. telnet 192.168.1.254
2. Use "Administrator" for username. It's case sensitive.
3. For password, you've to refer to the access key sticker on your router.
4. Copy and paste the following texts into telnet client.

dns server config state=disabled
dhcp server config state=disabled
dhcp server lease flush
dhcp server pool config name=LAN_private primdns=4.2.2.2 secdns=8.8.8.8
dhcp server config state=enabled
dns client flush
dns client dnsadd addr=4.2.2.2
saveall
exit

5. After this flush your local PC's DNS cache. In windows use ipconfig/flushdns or reboot your PC.
6. You will now be able to access websites blocked by MCMC/SKMM on your Maxis fibre broadband.

Brush TM UniFi DIR-615 (D-Link) With DD-WRT Firmware

The TM provided DIR-615 (the orange router) with custom DD-WRT firmware. The primary goal of this guide will basically be to guide users who wish to flash their TM provided Unifi DIR-615 routers with dd-wrt. However, users who have spare dd-wrt flashed routers around will also be able to use the information here, to set up the VLAN tagging for the PPPoE connection that is required by Unifi.

Pros of using DD-WRT firmware

• The router gets increased stability
• Less lockups/crashes
• Less connection drops (I'm looking at you, generic VPN protocol!)
• Support for a larger amount of concurrent connections
• The ability to increase your wifi signal strength (stock firmware has really weak wifi transmit power)

Cons of using DD-WRT firmware

• Unifi home users (VIP5/10/20) lose IPTV access
• You lose TM support for your Unifi service (it was pretty much non-existent in the first place!)
• You probably void the warranty on the router
• You might brick the router if you don't know what you're doing

WARNING!!

1. Before we begin, we would like to remind that we are not responsible, if you absolutely screwed up your UniFi router and are left with dial-up/Streamyx access for the next 3 weeks (or at least until TM decides it's time to pass you a new unit).
2. This guide requires basic to advanced networking computer knowledge. Read through all the steps that listed down here and make sure you understand it. If you don't, get a friend who does to follow this guide and do it for you.

Requirements (MAKE SURE YOU HAVE THESE FIRST!!):

1. Original TM DIR-615 G2 Firmware (Just for backup)
2. Brainslayer's DD-WRT DIR-615 REV D factory webflash - http://dd-wrt.com/others/eko/BrainSlayer-V24-preSP2/2010/08-07-10-r14896/dlink-dir615d/dlink-dir615d-factory-webflash.bin

Must Comply these Requirements

a.) Router's firmware revision - This can found in the bottom of the router. (The D-Link DIR-615 Revision G2 runs on RT3052F@384 chipset which is same with Revision Dx, so using firmware from Dx version is possible)

b.) The firmware is supported - We can check this via dd-wrt router-database.

c.) Router's firmware revision

HOW TO FLASH TM UniFi DIR-615 Router WITH DD-WRT

1.[ Set a static IP for your PC in the 192.168.0.x range with a subnet mask of 255.255.255.0 (Example: 192.168.0.50).

2.[ Connect a network cable from your computer's network interface card to the WAN PORT (not LAN port, WAN port) of your DIR-615 G1.

3.[ Turn off your DIR-615. The router is now in Emergency Room mode. (Hold down a pin to the RESET button of the router (at the back next to its power socket) and turn on the router while holding this RESET button down. If you did this properly, the power button on the router should now be orange and blinking continuously).

4.[ Open up Internet Explorer and head over to http://192.168.0.1/ You should be able to see the Emergency Room interface. (Please use Internet Explorer as Firefox/Google Chrome can cause some weird issues with this particular web interface).

Emergency Roon After Reset The DIR-615 Router

5.[ Hit the Browse button and select the Brainslayer DIR-615 rev D webflash firmware (dlink-dir615d-factory-webflash.bin) that you downloaded earlier. Upload it to the router. (Upon a successful upload, you should be able to see a success confirmation message).

6.[ Let the router reboot by itself.

7.[ Once power light turns GREEN.. Unplug the network cable from the WAN port and plug into any LAN port on the DIR-615 router (Recommended, ports 1-3).

8.[ The routers IP should now be 192.168.1.1, so change your PC's LAN IP from 192.168.0.0/255.255.255.0 to something in the 192.168.1.0/255.255.255.0 range. (Example: 192.168.1.50 with a subnet mask of 255.255.255.0).

9.[ Go to http://192.168.1.1 and configure your router's security (password) settings.

10.[ Before you continue to setup your PPPoE link, please setup your wireless security. The wireless radio should be on by default and will be accepting connections.

DONE ! FLASHING THE TM UNIFI D-LINK DIR-615 ROUTER WITH DD-WRT FIRMWARE.

Any Router Should Work with Unifi ONU/BTU Modem

Method to use any router with unifi (IPTV-compatible) for ZTE ZXDSL 931Dll (VDSL Modem)

Actually this concept is the same with It’s for vdsl modem brand Huawei HG655a. But, my tutorial is for vdsl modem ZTE ZXDSL 931Dll.

Unifi Standard Installation

500 = vlan data (internet)
600 = vlan IPTV

Problem

1. I want to use DD-WRT in my Dlink DIR-615
2. Using DD-WRT, we can not use IPTV anymore.

Solution

1. Plug IPTV cable to ZTE ZXDSL 931Dll (VDSL Modem)
2. Put static IP 192.168.1.2 and subnet 255.255.255.0 in your PC
3. Plug the cable to LAN2 port of ZTE ZXDSL 931Dll
4. Open browser and go to

username: admin
password: hs5711Bbvl

5. Go to Network -> WAN -> Port Binding

Go to Bridge_PTM_500_0 at the dropdown list. Tick LAN4. Click submit.

6. Go to Network -> WAN -> VLAN Trunk

Choose LAN1 at the dropdown list.
Choose 2 or 0 for Supported VLAN number. Dont choose 600 for VLAN ID.

Choose 600 at the PVID dropdown list
Click Submit.

7. Go to Network -> WAN -> VLAN Trunk. You can choose method 7a or method 7b. I recommend you follow step 7a because it is easier and less work to do.

Method 7 a) Added this Method for those router that are not capable on VLAN-tagging.

Even though you have a VLAN tagging capable router, you do not have to tag your WAN port with VLAN if you use this method. This works for all routers including not-VLAN-tagging capable router like Streamyx router. Thank to the this blog. You just setup normal PPPoE in your router.

Choose LAN4 at the dropdown list.
Tick Enable VLAN Trunk
First Supported VLAN number, insert value 0.
For PVID, choose 500.
Click Submit.

Method 7 b)

This method is not working with the routers that does not have VLAN tagging capability. This only works for VLAN tagging capable router. You have to tag VLAN500 and setup PPPoE in your router. That’s why i cross it.

Choose LAN4 at the dropdown list.
Tick Enable VLAN Trunk
First Supported VLAN number, insert value 1.
For VLAN ID1, choose 500.
Click Submit.

8. Plug STB cable to LAN1 port of ZTE, After that Dlink DIR615 cable to LAN4 ZTE. After that reboot all the equipment.

After that, you can use any router with your unifi. If you want to use DD-WRT firmware you can follow this tutorial, _guide.php (Ignore VLAN tagging step if you use method 7a).
