Hi I’m using wireless backhaul. Ok tried I turning off be5000 and it works. Seems like the wireless mesh is not working well.

 

[josesong]

Anyone able to help again on my Xiaomi BE6500 Pro router. I can’t seems to get it online again after 1 hour of trying ways. It’s not connected to mesh as my BE5000 is already turn off more than 1-2 days. Is it just doesn’t work with starhub? Thanks in advance.

Try the following to see if it helps.
1) Set up Google/Cloudflare DNS, 8.8.8.8 and 1.1.1.1
2) Enable IPv6

 

[josesong]

Hi morning. Have tired both DNS. Enable and disable IPV6. It didn’t work. Have verified ONT works too. Or it might be the BE6500pro failed? How do I check? If that’s the case what is the router to recommend for Starhub 5gbps plan. Thanks

@xiaofan is ur best hope.

I wonder if your xiaomi is spoilt? Earlier i had this Intel AX200 NIC, worked in my lenovos for 5-6 years then suddenly laptop behave wierd, i thought finally amd 4800h has died/damaged later i realised its the wireless card causing the problems, worst? i bought a replacement also is same problem from carousell. Sigh, eventually i sold my laptop and get second handlaptop from carousell,plug in also same problem then i realised its the wireless card.

=> Story is do you have another spare router to try out? I think tons n tons of cheap be router in carousell, get some and test, later u can sell away the same way you bot it?

=> Can you terminate and use M1 instead? Previously for M1 i had to copy n paste my prior router MAC to my huawei router MAC.

i am glad i am using Huawei be 7 pro routers, no brainers like me, just plug to ONT and it auto mesh, good for no brainers.

i using M1 ONT-> HW BE 7 Pro->HW AX3 Pro.

Nothing need to be done, it just works.

 

[josesong]

yeah. thanks for the suggestion. after looking through the past few pages in this thread. Seems like HB710 is the one Xiaofan recommended to pair with starhub.

Let me do some research on the Huawei BE7 as well. Thanks for replying.

Meanwhile I will get a cheap router to test it out and use hotspot for the time being. Thanks

You can try with the Xiaomi BE5000 to see if it has the same issue or not.

None of them as 6GHz band, let alone 320MHz channel bandwidth.

Alert: Xiaomi AX3000T China version V2 (RD03V2) with V2.x FW has changed the chipset from MediaTek Filogic 820 (original version RD03) to a lower performance Qualcomm IPQ5018 chipset, and it is no longer supported by official OpenWRT version. Wireless performance is also degraded as per the tests from a few Chinese reviewers.

The global version selling in local official Xiaomi shops is RD23 which is still using MediaTek Filogic 820 chipset and it still supported by OpenWRT.

Some Chinese websites will call RD03v2 as Xiaomi AX3000T HW Revision V3.

Hi, just did a factory reset on my Xiaomi BE3600 router and now my IP address is 192.168.31.X ranges.

My laptops are not able to ping each other. Which settings should I change for this?

Laptops able to access the internet?

Check your Windows Firewall, if enabled Ping is blocked by default
Under File and Printer Sharing > Echo Request - ICMPv4-In

ok can ping each other now.

my viewqwest ONT device is having IP 192.168.1.1, should I need to configure my Xiaomi BE3600 router to have the same network with 192.168.1.x?

PS: I got my Xiaomi BE3600 router from taobao last year, any global or openwrt firmware that I can flash?

Your ONT and Router should not be on the same subnet, must be different to avoid conflicts.

For XiaoMi I have no experience with OpenWRT, but your model seems to be using Qualcomm IP53xx series, not supported if i'm not mistaken

Updates: still not a good situation for Xiaomi. You will randomly get either the MT7981 version (V1 FW) or the weaker IPQ5018 version (V2 FW). Xiaomi tries to convinced the users that V2 FW version is better because of some new FW features.

Hello @xiaofan I'm renovating my home so looking for some router/AP recos. House is big so Cat6 cables into 5 rooms (Ethernet - 1 each room) + Cat6 cables for 4 APs (Wifi - 2 per level). Other devices - TV/printer/security cameras/doorbell - overall very simple family usage, just need fast speed and good coverage Planning to change ISP (Singtel 1Gbps -> MyRepublic 3Gbps No Frills). Read that MyRepublic setup is ONT so landed in this forum as I'm looking to get China routers/APs directly from TB.

Setup is probably gonna be:
Main Router (Xiaomi BE7000 / TP-Link TL-7DR7260 BE7200)
Port 1 -> WAN in from ONT
Port 2 -> 2.5Gbps PoE switch for 4 APs - I saw Xiaomi / TP-Link China PoE APs that has a small form factor (power socket size) which is ideal but not sure if it works in SG? They are really cheap compared to getting Ubiquiti / Netgear / TP-Link SG round-form PoE APs that easily cost >$200. Prefer PoE APs as I don't need another electric point for each AP.
Port 3 -> 2.5Gbps switch for 5 Ethernet + 1 printer - just need all the laptops to be on the same network as the printer.
Port 4 -> TV
Port 5 (if TP-Link router) -> Security cameras / Doorbell

1. Does the above setup even make sense lmao
2. Leaning more towards TP-Link TL-7DR7260 BE7200 because it has 5 2.5Gbps ports vs. Xiaomi's 4. But setting up wise is it easy plug and play?
3. If the China PoE APs don't work in SG and I have to get Ubiquiti etc. APs will they work with China main router?

China POE APs will work. But you may not want to use Xiaomi BE7000 or TP-Link China TL-7DR7260 as the main router in that case, as they may not be compatible.

Out of the following two new popular solution from Xiaomi and Huawei, I tend to like Xiaomi a bit better since the main router has 512MB RAM.

TP-Link China, ZTE, H3C and Ruijie have also solutions for AC+AP.
