Router overheating - Princess_Stardust - 07-05-2018
Just to let everyone know, after about 2h of my router being on it overheats and doesnt work for around 30mins, so if your suddenly talking to me, then my ship just sits there and does fuck all for about 30mins then starts working
you all know why
only overheats in the summer which is nice

clean the dust out of it and point a fan at it

Also, make sure the sun is not shining on it, and consider moving it to being closer to your cool air, if you run AC.

Serious about the dust and especially the fan (room ventilator) pointed at the overheated thing. I got my overclocked 500MHZ Pentium through Ultima 9 that way. Also, put a glass with ice cubes on top of it. Do not spill on anything electrical.

Well I've cleaned it, and then cleaned the computer, then It seems to work for around 6 hours without having any problems
So yeah, should be good now
Yay
