QUOTE(easta90 @ Apr 17 2018, 01:58 AM) if too hot i want using this custom fan , just order it from taoboa (below RM20) ...too many special thing can do with this router (TM-ac68 u ) than huawei ws 880 Me to tried use this setup before. Using 2 USB fan stick behind router. After 2-3 months, dust all over the back of my ac68u. And the fan kaput as well.   As everyone mentioned, the router is capable of handling heat. So im not so worry about it. Running ac68u for 2 years now. |

QUOTE(Alex9182 @ May 28 2018, 05:22 PM) he place inside closed cabinet, maybe no dust. Dust is everywhere. The fan will attract the dust faster.if place on top of cabinet, sure a lot of dust. This post has been edited by firdausbhari: May 28 2018, 06:30 PM |

» Click to show Spoiler - click again to hide... « Even if its a tmobile ac1900, its still an Asus. I prefer to use Asus all because of the firmware. U worried to much about heat. It was designed to handle it. My ac68u(non tmobile) runs at 82’C for almost 3 years now haha still kick ass. This post has been edited by firdausbhari: Jun 18 2018, 02:47 PM |

QUOTE(jimbet1337 @ Jun 18 2018, 08:29 PM) Is there a significant difference of AC coverage of RT-AC68U vs WS880 (on merlin) ? That big? More or less the same |
