Not sure why search did not show.

Although I included Best Buy as well whereas post that was quoted still not updated in title.

Check your time stamp post # 53 vs post # 1 here.

Presume it's same model at Amazon, Staples, Best Buy and not like the 68U that has several iterations?

CA in some model descriptions probably to minimize price matching?

Current firmware can cause overheating in some units -- CPU should be between 60-70C, if it's higher, it may live a much shorter life. Easy fix if you notice temps too high: plug a USB fan into one of the ports on the router and point at back where the vents are.
