Is my hardware hacked?
Thank you in advance for any help or insight. I was curious if this is what the inside of a c6300 is supposed to look like. I have been having a lot of issues with my network and the highlighted piece looks, odd to me. It looks crudely cut, the metal and wire soldering look amateurish.
Thank you all again for your time and help.

those are for the antenna. They're supposed to look like that.
What issues are you having?
do you have a screen snip of the cable connections page and the logs?

Thanks for that detailed problem description.

cheap-Chinese plastic junk, not a finely crafted walnut desk. If the
wires are attached (to the antennas, I'd guess?), inside the box, then
perhaps your concern is misplaced.those are for the antenna. They're supposed to look like that.
