AX4200 Clicking Noise?

Felt like I got a great deal on AX4200 on the Netgear website, but it made a clicking noise right off the bat. I am assuming that this is bad considering there isn’t a fan in here according to what I have read. I returned it, but I kinda wanna order another one bc it was a good price idk what to do. Just curious if any one had read about similar experiences. The WiFi did work even though you could hear the WiFi router from across the room.

    Which one? AX4200 is not a unique Netgear model number. Many devices come with the AC/AX tag, but it is essentially a label that Netgear, and others, attach to hardware to describe wifi speeds.

     

    Look at the label on the device for the Model Number. And, if there is one, include the "V" bit to show the hardware version. If there is no V number, then you have V1.
