      Just as an FYI for those who may not know, John McAfee has had nothing to do with the McAfee software for a very long time though.

        I don't believe you. Would you happen to have a video of the late John McAfee explaining his relationship to the company of the same name?

        • NinjaChicken on 13/07/2021 - 21:33
          +5

          Well, you could just check the Wikipedia entry:

          John McAfee, who no longer had any involvement in the company, expressed his pleasure at his name no longer being associated with the software. "I am now everlastingly grateful to Intel for freeing me from this terrible association with the worst software on the planet. These are not my words, but the words of millions of irate users."

            @NinjaChicken: It seems like you have had nothing to do with the internet for over 15 years. You must have had more pressing things to do.

      What's the difference between John McAfee and the D-Link AC2600 Wi-Fi Router Powered by McAfee?

      If the D-Link AC2600 Wi-Fi Router Powered by McAfee has trouble streaming security footage from inside a cell, call an IT guy to install cable and mount it to the roof.

      • [Deactivated] on 13/07/2021 - 19:58

        Well, not that bad. I don't really need a router or AP but just want the 12V/3A power adapter comes with it, you can look around to see how much does that cost.
        Unfortunately I wasn't fast enough all snatched by someone else before I submitted my order.

  • jeppetto367 on 13/07/2021 - 18:24

    Thanks OP. My router is quite bad, no idea if this is any good but for $2 I'll try it out.

  • [Deactivated] on 13/07/2021 - 18:25

    Wow price, no brainier, can be used for extension.

    Is there custom firmware for this?

        You still remember lol. Was able to fix my issue in the end btw :)

        Wouldn't have had paid $12. Wanted to see if I can add this to the collection of stuff I bought because of OzBargain for $2

        • Twix on 13/07/2021 - 23:20

    does this work with NBN FTTP?

    • electroz on 13/07/2021 - 18:37

      Honestly, no clue.
      I planed to use as an extension.
      I have a POE terminating in a seperate area where I can use some wi-fi

      • HenryGalilei on 13/07/2021 - 18:38

        As per review from centrecom quote
        “ Doesn’t work out of the box with NBN, and CentreCom won’t take it back because “you should know that”. So… you should know don’t buy it, and think twice about CentreCom.”

        • Namidairo on 13/07/2021 - 18:53
          +2

          That could mean anything from "I have FTTN and thought this was a modem" to "This router does not support TPG Group's weird PPPoE with vlan tags"…

          It would surprise me if it had no support for a simple dhcp configuration.

        • Twix on 13/07/2021 - 18:55

          It doesn't work out the box for FTTN/B. It works if you put in the right ISP settings.

          you should know that

          They should know that. Far too many people are ignorant on their nbn connection.

      • tabboo on 13/07/2021 - 18:39

        fair enough - see how we go. I still have the Optus sagemcom thing they give you. surely this will be better than that

        This is how I've used this for the last 6 months or so
        Haven't had any problems since getting it set up.

        EDIT: Sorry, misread the earlier comment. I have mine working from a powerline adaptor, not power over ethernet.

    • Twix on 13/07/2021 - 18:53

    My 2nd Super Deal in years of Ozbargaining.

    The first was a Singer bread maker thingie for ~$20.00 - no regrets.

    This one….????

    Actually all I wanted was an extra access point at the other end of the house (have ethernet cable ready).

    Hope this does it.

    • Bappy on 13/07/2021 - 22:01

      Congratulations! Lucky you, I recall that bread maker deal and obviously missed both of these deals…

      As gratitude to the OP, maybe vote this post a +Positive?

      Cheers

    • ArskinF on 20/07/2021 - 16:38

      Received today. Much excitement.

    Great Deal! I've got one of these at home, pulling ~950mbps down over ethernet and around 600mbps down over wifi on my NBN FTTP connection. You can just disable all the mcafee stuff. Bought when it was ~$99 at HN, and thought it was a bargain then for the speeds.

  • cyssero on 20/07/2021 - 20:16

    For anyone trying to get this going with iiNet FTTB at the TP-Link VR1600V v2 , this worked for me (using TPG's FTTB service, not NBN):
    - Put the TP-Link into bridged mode by deleting all existing gateways under DSL and EWAN (can be recovered via factory reset)
    - Add new DSL interface (interface type VDSL, enable VLAN ID, enter value 2)
    - Confirm the Interface Grouping for your new interface is mapped to LAN Port 1
    - Connect the Ethernet cable to LAN Port 1 (TP-Link) to Internet port (D-Link)
    - Go through set-up wizard with D-Link. The app is flaky for set-up, so get it to the point you can connect to Wi-Fi and just go to 192.168.0.1 with the credentials you've created
    - Configure your connection type to PPoE, username/password is not required by iiNet but D-Link require a value, so pick something
    - Do not enable VLAN and do not enter a value - this is what I spent a bit of time mucking around with
    - On the landing page of the D-Link you'll see connection light up and obtain a Dynamic IP

    This took a bit of trial and error because I was using the app (bad idea), the HTTP config is far easier. Also, don't config VLAN on the D-Link - leave this on the TP-Link interface only.
