    Is your WL500g warm or hot?

    Do you think it would require any extra cooling?

    Im quite curious to know if the unit heats up much?

    Thanks

    Hmm, mine is in small closed space together with VDSL modem and some SWITCH device (to separate DSL TV, IP phone and internet signal), and alltogether was so hot thar router was crashing all the time.
    After installing FAN to insure ventilation, troubles stopped...
    It ain't the fall that kills you
    It's the sudden stop at the bottom.

    I've installed heatsinks on all hot chips (3 big + 2 voltage regulators as I can remember) - not needed, but no one knows...
