I discovered an old router at the end of our school garage sale. I picked it up because I might find something useful, but I’m not sure what to do with it now. I already have a gaming router in my room with 500 Mbps internet that I use as a bridge, splitter, and Wi-Fi extender. Do you have any other ideas for it? The model number is 10A10C1A180054.
This tool might help with extending your range or setting up an access point.
It seems the main goal is to extend connectivity for additional devices. You might consider using it as an unmanaged switch or even a router. The model number isn’t clear, so checking the brand isn’t possible right now. If it’s compatible with third-party firmware like DD-WRT or Tomato, you could install it and experiment with settings.
