Risks of an AC 2400 Wi-Fi router everyone should be aware of

[tomhiddleston]

Hello everyone should pay attention to this discussion of mine as it will help everyone to be wary when using this wifi router. I have only been using it for 2 months, on a day of heavy rain, thunderstorms, thunder struck my wifi, all power sources burned out, it was terrible. I want to know why and how to fix it, thank you.

   "thunder" is a loud sound.

   _Lightning_ is an electrical disturbance.

   "fix it"?  Repair the damage, or prevent its recurrence?  Ask Ben
Franklin?

   Surge suppressors in power wiring can help, but a (near-)direct
lightning strike is hard to resist.

   Do you believe that _this_ model router is especially attractive to
lightning?  (And Mr. Trump won all fifty states?)

Ive had the same modem at my college residence and it worked first-class but about three months into the usage of it at my dad and mom residence it started out having issues. I referred to as netgear and they said i need to "configure it" with their technitian however thats simply scam to get me to shop for the insurance.
