We thought the WiFi chip had died, so they sent me a replacement - turns out our neighbors had cut our cable and we run our WiFi through the walls…so the first one probably went out to someone else as a refurb. Long live Hephaestus and hear hear to the “Try setting up your phone as a hotspot” set of instructions.

To answer your questions:

1. I’ve had my 2 years as of mid-June
2. No issues at all
3. Never had to send back a unit*
