Now this is an excellent instructional video. No nonsense...no unnecessary blah blah blah..to the point and explains everything along the way. Some of you folks on UA-cam that think they are making instructional videos should watch this and learn HOW to make instructional videos. Thank you.
Thank you, I appreciate it. :)
What a great video thumbs up man you explained it throughly. Helped out a lot
Thank you, glad it was of help
Thank you for this. Helped me out a lot!
You're welcome, glad it was of help
Excelente, muito obrigado pelo tutorial, deixei meu like. Abraços do Brasil
You're welcome :)
@Ano Nymos actually....
There's a small white dot sticker on one of those housing Philip screws, says "warrenty seal" written on it.
-DAMN. I already destroyed mine with Philip screw like in video....shoulda token a picture of it!
-removed sheilds throw trash(stupid insulation traps heat from escaping to heatsinks!)
-stock heatsinks= good
(takes 1.5mm copper plate to feel same amount freezing from finger tips-heat sucked away....smaller sizes felt warmer compared to stock heat sinks)
Thanks! Mine got a switch that wouldn't stay clicked 'on'. I disassembled and put some deoxit inside the switch and seems much better now.
You're welcome :)
Nice work keep doing that
Thanks :)
All of your questions answered about chips and antenna locations: web.archive.org/web/20190529193154/read01.com/BJ58JK.html
Note that the 2.4GHz antennas are the four front-most antennas (front being where all of the status LEDs are) which also share the 5GHz band. The other four antennas are strictly for 5GHz only.
Omg came here exactly just for that. Thank you so much!
U can write the gamelist support ps4 of last update? Thanks
Thanks for the video. Any idea which are the two 5GHz bands.
Im honestly not sure, I don't know too in dept about which processor or chips are for the 5G to see how they are linked and laid out on the board. Its entirely possible that all the antennas are capable of alternating and sending the 2.4 and 5GHz based off which the board and processors give signal to at a given time. So maybe there isn't just two selected for that purpose only since I didn't notice any different on any of the feeds or antennas.
See my reply above.
What thickness are the thermal pads?
And you a chucky fan too!! Bruh did we just become Best friends !!
Haha yup
why do the areas in the heat sink look wet. Where is that coming from and why? Are the pads "melting"
After 22 Month (or before, it is a used device from ebay) sometimes the wifi from GT-AC5300 is dissappeared or authentification error etc..
A thermal problem? New device has arrived. But there is a ASUS warranty of 3 years. I can not open the device to pimp the cooling. Is there a security paint (at the screws...) etc.?
I think there is no space for fans inside (?).
My idea, 4x 80mm fan (1cm thicknes) on the 16x16cm field on the top of the device. Sucking the air through the "holes" (gaps at the side of the Slots, not a perfect design).
It seems, the wifi chips are on the bottom side (antenne cables are connected at the bottom side).
That's a pitty. And with fans at the bottom side, it is uncomfortable.
It seems, at 3 sides of the board are space to the case.
We could close the ventilation slots at the side and the whole area at the bottom without cooling elements (2) with tape or similar.
Then the air flow that is sucked out of the top of the unit is forced along the heat sinks under the unit.
5V fans (~$2 from China) could powered by a USB port. But in future, I would connect a HDD/SSD and perhaps a printer.
I coud use a cheap, small and passive USB-Hub. Also USB2 (for the fans and Printer, USB2 is OK).
Strange: I find on Ebay no USB plugs for soldering.
Something like that should be for a dollar (including shipping) to buy.
I'll see if I find a broken USB cable from a smartphone or tablet. Often the small connector for the device side is defective.
I don't recall there being any security tape or any tamper indication tapes so as long as you did not damage it taking it apart, no one would know. And if a thin fan like that does not fit inside, you can install the fan from the outside to suck air in from bottom and one on top if you wanted to so it could help pull air out the top.
Anyone know the quality of those antennas? Like would it be helpful to replace them with 18 dBi aftermarket antennas?
Not too sure honestly
hi is there any way to add a few more holes on the top pice of the router so mor heat can escape
Ya you can drill out holes but would be best to get a small fan and just mount it on top or bottom to generate airflow through the unit to cool it down. You can just buy a small external fan that plugs into a wall outlet and position it in a way to blow into or onto the router etc.
Ya. It’s called a drill - or even better a hole saw. If that fails use a sledgehammer
My power button is broken, can I fix it myself? please advise (GT-AC5300)
It would require soldering knowledge since its soldered to the main board.
I putted Thermal pad from Grizzly company 1mm and its cold and quiet
Nice
Is it possible to apply thermal paste instead of thermal pad? As in, will there be a gap due to the screw length and the now-missing thermal pads?
Is the oil traces normal?
Not sure. This was not a brand new unit but a 1 month used unit that was taken apart, but nothing was spilled on it and was kept in a dry area so if they use any sort of lubricant with the thermal pads or any parts internally then it should be normal from the looks of it.
@@PBKreviews I have several years old one and the 2.4ghz band is not working, not transmitting, sometimes very rarely comes on in guest mode but then permanently shuts off. maybe hardware or software fault.
@@fl5537 Have you tried doing a hard reset by pressing the small button in the back with a pin for 20 seconds? Keep in mind it will reset everything back to factory settings.
@@PBKreviews I've done everything, from factory reset to firmware downgrade. Still no 2.4ghz.
@@PBKreviews When it does come on, it shuts off very quickly in 5mins, at first I thought it was heat issue but opened it up like you and added thermal paste here and there. Warranty is expired, the board may need a solder reflow, for now as I may use another 2.4ghz access point.
Those are some gaudy looking thermal pads, Id def replace them with something better
Guess you are quite stupid....
@@vforvendetta6193 how do you "guess" that makes me stupid? At least elaborate before acting like an invalid and insult people.
Definitely. Factory thermal pads stink
Thanks for showing the details of the board, obviously it looks as if there was some unnecessary components there as the mixture of little indian and big indian architecture of chips could have all had the same convention and we could have eliminated additional shift registrars thus reducing delays and extra computation and heat...
Ok who am I kidding, why the heck is he showing us the board? I have no clue what I’m looking at.
