Model: TL-MR100

Hardware Version: V1

Firmware Version: 1.2.0 0.9.1 v0001.0

I have a TL-MR100 4G WiFi router. I used to plug and turn it on only when I want to access internet. I plug and unplug it frequently. Sometimes 2-3 times a day. Is it okay or should I keep turn it on all day?

The router neither have a power Off/On switch. Its a plug and play device.

@Ish567

If honest, either answer is fine

However, if you are asking my opinion, personally I would leave it powered on all the time. From experience, there is more chance of a device failing or developing a hardware error during regular power cycles than there is being on all the time
