Test the TVS diode
-
The TVS diode, marked D6 on the PCB, is located between the antenna and a large IC on the RJ45 port side of the board.
-
Use a multimeter or ohmmeter to test whether the diode has shorted. A shorted diode will read less than 1 Ohm in both directions. A working diode will have significantly higher resistance in one direction than the other.
