The 2.4GHz and 5GHz radios have Power Amplifiers. Firmware contains a "calibration table" (EEPROM dump). If the firmware is generic (not tuned for your specific region/country code), the PAs may default to maximum transmission power (27dBm) .
ZTE .bin updates are encrypted with XOR + AES-CBC. Key found inside cspd: OMCI uses AES key derived from serial number
