Hey there! I'm working on connecting your router to your outdoor antenna system. You mentioned unsure about the router's connector type—initially thought it was N, but after using an adapter it became clear it wasn't. Now you're pretty sure it's an RP-SMA male connector, which means half of the adapter needs to be RP-SMA female. Any guidance would be great!

After reviewing it more closely, I realized the router model once again.

This resembles a description from the Wikipedia page on TNC connectors, highlighting reverse polarity connections.
