## Questions & Answers

A: Not with the shipped firmware.

A: Not sure , but works like a charm. I have had no problems connecting any of our devices.(phones, Roku , tablets ,laptops....)

**Q: Can you mesh this with another?**
A: Short answer, yes.

**Q: Can i use a poe injector to provide power to this router? i want to hang it on the ceiling and want to use ethernet to provide power.**
A: Will not work, needs ac adapter provided for power
