Replacing the air filters
It is strongly recommended that routers be installed in environments that have minimal dust and
airborne contaminants. If routers are installed in environments where dust or other airborne
contaminants may be present, air filters should be inspected and replaced as needed. Maintaining
clean air filters ensures optimal airflow through the devices.
