I posted earlier about my router overheating. I sent it in for an RMA and got a new (refurb) unit back. It had the same issue.... well, we just can't have that, can we?

Oh man.
This makes me want to do all types of things. But how could you tell that it was overheating?
I think maybe this should be moved to the custom builds section -
I don't think those routers put out 65w of heat to require such a cooler...

It is an overkill
This is sufficient IMO. Routers are not high performance device that need active cooling.
Certain routers come with small sinks just swap them for big sinks will do.
Active Cooling consumes power. -
meh go big or go home
its for the fun of the modding -
EDIT: I guess dry ice would be easier and cheaper to get than liquid nitrogen and still provide wicked cooling. -

if it was still under warranty why settle for a DIY job?

. I passed up tons of small laptop fans and heat sinks. This just made me smile, so why not?

I blow the dust out of mine once a week and have a couple of pencils under it for airflow.
Router overheating? Not anymore!!
