Having to fsck continually is a symptom of either failing hardware (disk or disk controller on MoBO), or poor admin practices. Older file systems (eg. ext[2-4]) do have filesystem attributes that tell the OS to run fsck on reboot every n mounts or if fsck has not been run for n days. If you are using and ext based file system, then you can check and modify those values with dumpe2fs and tune2fs. You're going to hate me for saying so, but check the man pages for those commands to see how they work. I'm don't know if xfs or btrfs have similar attributes.
You can check what filesystems are in use by examining /etc/fstab e.g:
# cat /etc/fstab
LABEL=/ / ext3 defaults 1 1
none /dev/pts devpts gid=5,mode=620 0 0
none /proc proc defaults 0 0
none /dev/shm tmpfs defaults 0 0
LABEL=/u /u ext3 defaults 1 2
/dev/sda2 swap swap defaults 0 0
If you have xfs or btrfs or other file system, then google for the filesystem type and maintenance. That should hopefully lead you to the correct incantations to manage the fs.
I have many Linux systems under my care. My main day-to-day system is currently running Fedora-37, but I help manage various boxes all over the place running various CentOS flavors, and Raspberry PIs running Rasbian. There are only 2 cases that an fsck needs to be run manually. 1) there's disk corruption, likely due to hardware malfunction. 2) an improper shutdown - normally due to a power outage. If you're continually having to run fsck, then its almost certainly due to one of those 2 issues. If you do a normal shutdown (eg either poweroff or shutdown -h as root) and wait for the system to power itself off, then you're almost certainly looking at failing hardware. See what smartctl (again RTFM!) can tell you, and try running some of the disk self tests.
Good luck!

I got this router few weeks ago and set it up beside my computer in home office.
but I smelled pungent from this router.
should I return this device?

Maybe it just needs some deodorant

Depends what it smells of - if it's "hot electronics" or "burnt insulation" (and once you smell these you'll know what I mean) then I'd say you should talk to the supplier about returns - there is a fire risk if nothing else.
Also try to sniff carefully to isolate where it's coming from - the mains adapter or the router itself.
When sniffing odd smells, it's a good idea to fill you lungs with clean air first, then sniff - so you can "blow the smell out" if it's toxic - Herself taught me that one because methylated spirits cause her breathing problems - and burning plastic can contain chlorine compounds which don't do your lungs any good at all.

my previous router is NetGear that comes with adapter, so it uses low voltage.
but this TP-Link ER7206 uses 110 voltage directly and no adapter...

They'll all have a step-down transformer, either inline or internal.

So do arc welders. Low voltage doesn't mean low risk, and operating voltage has nothing to do with a smelly router. I'd definitely contact the manufacturer.

Does it still work?
Can you feel excessive heat coming from it?
If so it's probably defective.
If not it may be just a breaking in smell, similar to a new car.

yes, it is working and no excessive heat.
I am worried about that smells contain chemicals...

Yeah that would be a concern, place in a well ventilated area away from your work.

Return it.

If it's just a break in smell then the next one will do it also!
