I love it, but it look like something you got ask question when found in your baggage at the airport.

Exactly, it's not really a 'travel'-suited router lol. Unless one enjoys a regular cavity search.

It's close though. With some touching up of the messy Dremel work I think it would pass a cursory inspection.

I used to travel with our sales people when they had to do demoes. Even with internet, they'd bring a small desktop computer, a monitor, a WiFi router, a bag of Ethernet cables, all assorted keyboard and mouse paraphernalia all in its very own carry on bag.

Needless to say, we always planned for extra time at security...

A gaming console will get you swabbed for explosives so...

Yeah, even a stock-looking router is going to get inspected if it is big enough.

You can take comfort that that DHS xray screeners miss most mock devices intended by examiners to look like bombs.

We don't know exactly what percentage, because after failing to miss 95% of weapons and bombs in 2015, the results from 2017's tests were kept secret: https://abcnews.go.com/US/tsa-fails-tests-latest-undercover-...

...and they haven't even discussed the tests since.

I'm sure no one will ask them to show UL or CE marks or want Homologation approvals. You just whip out the old ISO 9000 certificates and tell the customs official that its all good "look its OpenWRT from Github - definitely not a Stingray officer!" LoL.
