    Advice on cooling a wireless adapter
    « on: July 16, 2012, 01:46:10 PM »
    I have a small usb wireless adapter.  So far the only things I can think of to stop its recent overheating problem are sawing the case off it for airflow, or leaving the case intact and putting it in some water.  Are there any ways to limit its speed or otherwise prevent overheating?
