Hey guys I was cleaning my drawer when I found this really old router

Does anyone know what to do with them? Like does anyone collect old electronics for collection/for fun? Or just dump into a ewaste bin? Thanks

Singtel still has ADSL as of 3 years ago.

Just dispose of the router. Even 2 or 3 year old used routers can be found cheaply nowadays.

can use as wired switch if you like. 10/100 is still pretty good for delivering home game streaming or media streaming. those android boxes can benefit with wired connection

I always save the power adapter. Can be very useful especially if it's 12v. I usually keep as spare/backup for other appliance if suitable, or use to power LED strips.
