My router's back plate has cracked due to a bloated battery.
In fear of the battery exploding and the need to have my mobile router, I have 2 options.
Option 1: Replacing the Battery

Backstory: (more later!)
What happened?
My mobile router has a bloated and cracked back cover, caused by a badly bloated battery. It looks unsafe and dangerous!
What did I do?
The Battery needs to be removed and disposed of safely. The fear is of it going off and exploding like many other lithium batteries have. The best place to do that is at the local community centers.
I have 2 options to get my mobile router up and running again. Either to buy a replacement battery or get a new device.
Resolution
To look for a new mobile router.
