I am not sure where this topic belongs, but I think this is the best place to put it, because it involves the power supply section.
Today, I successfully repaired a D-Link DI-524 wireless access point.
The MP1410 DC-DC converter was blown, and fortunately a spare was pulled out of a set-top box being scrapped.
Replacing this chip made the wireless access point operate again; so the 680uF capacitor before the choke, along with the 47uF unit after it, as well as the 470uF unit for the +3.3V rail; all of which were Jun Fu units.
The +3.3V rail is well within tolerance and a firmware update enabled WPA2 support (remember, some wireless access points support wireless security features in hardware, but not in firmware
)
