C7500 Hardware Problem?

My C7500 goes offline when I rotate one of the antennas past a certain angle.  This behavior is repeatable.  Here it is working:

And here it is with the #2 ethernet light solid and no other activity:

Should I be worried?

So... that was an uneventful 8 minute unboxing video.

 

I failed to find any relevance to my original query where the router hardware appears to enter a fault state when the antenna is rotated a specific direction.

Hello Tlee


I suggest contacting support since this is a hardware issue they may be able to RMA the product for you.
