How is the condition of your unit, like new? got scratches or dents?

My unit, after enter those code, 2.4G and 5G Signal increased (signal bar on phone increase), temperature for 2 Radio chip on Router increased by 2~3 deg C, if not mistaken, more WiFi band for 2.4G and 5G (not sure because did not check before enter code). smile.gif

i have also install ab-solution ad blocking on Router Click Here to see.

now running it see how. smile.gif

are there any free VPN that i can install on this Router, pls recommend if know any. smile.gif

Suggest you use a simple cooler to move air around the unit.
