    Flip it upside down and you have an RGB Spider as a Halloween decoration:lol:

    I like the mod on its own, but the Router? With that moar antennas design I'd probably decide to tuck it away out of sight rather than draw attention to it.

    It's only going to get worse in future. You'll get more and more antennas as we roll from 5GHz AC --> 60GHz AD and 5G mmWave has 'array antennas' that are literally a small wall of tiny, directional antenna nodes. Every time you add a significantly different frequency you need new antennas.

    I'm trying to open mine to flash firmware by serial, and cannot see how to remove the motherboard to access the serial port on the other side. Seems like I just need to remove the rivets up top, but don't see how to get in to drill them out.

    How did you manage to get the screws out from up top, the ones just under the mobo for the top grill?
