I have found a router that can be in this environment.
OPERATING ENVIRONMENT:
-----------------------------------------
Operating temperature: -40 C to 75 C (- 40°F to 165°C).
10 % to 90 % non-condensing
IP30
Operating humidity
Ingress Protection Rating
-----------------------------------------
So this router should survive, before I get extremely uncomfortable, with frost bites, or I get overheated and faint. 🤣😂
It will not be as fast as a consumer grade router (not the latest standard) on Wi-Fi. But I think reliability is the most important for me. I only need; 100 Mbit down/100 Mbit up. Often with consumer grade routers there can be issues with instabilities, and you need to restart the router from time to time. This is mostly due to underdimentioned hardware, and crappy software with bugs.
It may be overkilled. But if you know me.
I'm all about overkilled. I live in a small apartment, and I need to keep the temps when doing PE at ~ 30 °C / 86 °F. So this device should survive with ease. I prefer cable connection when working on my PC (for example: uploading videos to MOS), but I need also Wi-Fi to work on my phone. The cable version (not with Wi-Fi) of this router is much cheaper.
Maybe 2 routers, one main one, and also a really cheap router for wireless only. 2 networks at home. But that will be even more overkilled since the first router will reduce the connectivity speeds, of the consumer grade router. The network will be to complicated as well. I need stability over high speeds. If I want high connection speed, I can use my laptop and a cable connection.
The benefits with this
non consumer grade router, is that I will have more control of my network, and not risk data breach due to some server you need to connect to in order to upgrade the firmware (d-link, Asus...). With consumer grade routers you never know what data they will take from you (Maybe I'm wrong about this?). Also a non consumer grade router will be more stable as I mentioned before.
Just my thoughts about setting up my Network at home. I even have considered to build my own router, but that will take even more time to set up and get all the parts (I may also have to deal with compability issues with network cards...maybe?), and get the software to work as I want it to work.
Also it will draw more power (electricity), since it will be based off an old desktop PC. But that project would be so fun to do. 😊
Here's the router that I'm considering to buy:
This is not advertising.
MOS do not sell these so I think I'm good. Maybe they should sell these. 😂
The selling point should be:
If your router dies due to doing penis enlargement in the heat, you need this router.
I'm just joking around.
Maybe someone else will benefit from this information. As always I hope this helps.
Take care brothers.
