Also, as George mentions below, it also 2 different wireless channels into the LAN - the 2.4GHz signal transmits farther, the 5GHz transfers data quicker (for movies, downloads, etc.) but the signal doesn't broadcast as far from the router (although its generally good enough).

I haven't had any problems with dirt and grime collecting, but then I have only had it for 6 months. When I clean the vents (canned air) on my computer, I clean all electronic components as well. I live in a very dusty, dirty area, so I use the canned air weekly, so I don't have a dirty problem.
If you get one that works it should help with your wireless cameras. We returned 2 defective units and went with a Netgear Nighthawk. It would definitely extend your wifi range and signal strength.
