What 𮩂 means
It is linked to 㭃, an old form of 綱/纲.
Unicode 18.0’s chart pairs U2EA42 with 㭃. The Shuowen Jiezi, a Chinese character dictionary compiled around 100 CE, identifies 㭃 as an old form of 綱/纲.
綱 first named a net’s main cord; later, it also meant a framework or guiding principle. That history does not make 𮩂 a general substitute for modern 綱/纲.
Why might 𮩂 show as a box?
The font or app may lack its glyph.
When a font or app lacks a glyph, this extension-range character may appear as a box, question mark, code-point label, or blank. CJK fonts can also use regional forms, so a changed outline does not by itself mean different text.

1Why does 𮩂 show as a box on some devices?
Because that device's fonts have no glyph for it. The character is still correct and still copies correctly — the box is a missing glyph, not a broken character.
