-It appears that the only difference between this device and the faster E5400 is the firmware. When running OpenWRT, the device reports speeds equivalent to AC1200, double than its advertised N600. More testing is needed to confirm this behavior (July 2022).+It appears that the only difference between speed limited devices and the faster E5400 is the firmware.
