Locate the two black plastic screw coverings at the top of the device and remove them with your fingers.
-
-
-
Use a plastic opening tool between the edges of the router and gently pry the device apart.
-
Release the clips as you work your way around the device to avoid breaking them.
-
Separate the front and back case of the router.

Once you have removed the top black case of the router, remove the silver casing surrounding the logic board.

Use a Phillips #2 screwdriver to remove the two screws at the bottom of the motherboard.

Once you have completely removed your logic board from its casing, look for any large dust particles and/or other dirt inside the router. Gently remove these particles with your fingers.

-
Locate the blue rubber wire coverings near the main cable connections of your motherboard. Make sure that these are standing upright.
-
If they are not, gently use your wire tweezers to rearrange them in the correct upright position.

-
-
Locate the upright wire tube towards the middle left of the motherboard.
-
Make sure that the wires are evenly spaced, not directly touching one another on the tube.

If the wires are not evenly spaced, gently use your spudger tool to separate them.

Using a soft cloth, gently wipe the top side of the motherboard.

Be sure not to miss any small crevices.

Using your cloth, gently wipe the metal slates around the cable connectors.
