For optimum router performance, perform the following preventive maintenance procedures
on a regular basis:

Inspect the installation site for potential problems caused by moisture, loose wires or
cables, and excessive dust. Make sure that airflow around the router is unobstructed.
•
Check the LEDs on the craft interface and on hardware components. See "Craft
Interface" on page 14.
