D-Link DIR-816L (Ver.B1)
After the previous DIR-820L-A1 & DIR-850L-A1 test units, I was commenting/suggesting certain things to D-Link Malaysia sales person with regards to routers for UniFi. I was surprised recently they wrote UniFi custom firmware (3 digits VLANs @ ports) on another RealTek SoC, the DIR-816L-B1--> this time a budget DualBand AC750 small size mydlink Cloud Router with 2 external antenna, even comes with a USB2 port, nice
Thanks to D-Link Malaysia again for the test unit, glad to see D-Link is getting more aggressive to provide more after-market routers optoin for UniFi users
