It is over 101 degrees F here in Northern California. Or 38 degrees C.
My Net gear router is out in the Barn. It stopped working.It was very hot to the touch.
So I pulled it out of its case. Discovered the wireless chip has no heat sink. So I put the thing in my protected area in the barn, where the computers have some air conditioning.
And...
I left the router NAKED! See the tireless chip has no fins!
