  • Yes the RBR keeps settings. Though wifi radio signals are not harmful to humans unless you have the RBR or RBS right next to you.

      thanks for your answer, I read some scientific studies have found that continuous exposures 8h/day near device causes sleep disturbances and other problems for healt, so the wifi device will be installed 3 meters away from head, not in bedroom but in house corridor, separated with only plasterboard wall

        Where were those "scientific studies"? That is an easy claim to throw around, but there are often about as reliable as the "scientific studies" quoted by the antivaxxers.
