Slight problem, I'm somewhat new to smd soldering and accidentally ruined a small, SMALL, smd resistor. The resistor has since been removed, but I'm having trouble figuring out exactly what type it is - It's the same as CB29 on the board. (you can see that CB66 is missing.)




Any help would be GREATLY appreciated.

It is a capacitor.

It is a decoupling capacitor between + and ground to prevent noise from the dram on the + supply.

The router will work without, you will not notice any difference.
I guess it is a 10nF capacitor in case you can't live with knowing that it is missing Smile

Hey, if it'll work without it then that's okay by me; one less thing to worry about. Thank you both so much for your help!
