Small Cooling Fans
« on: June 26, 2006, 12:54:42 PM »
Hi people,

I've just got a new netgear router, the problem is it overheats under heavy load, and I need to find a way to cool it, or in a few months it'll be totally dead.

I'm looking to find the smallest, or thinnest fan I can find to fit inside the case (it's a horrible tiny plastic case with hardly any vents).

I intend to drill some vents and fix the fan inside.

Does anybody know somewhere in the uk where I can get a small fan from? Or alow profile fan?

Ta.
Restraining orders are just another way of saying I love you!

Every router in the range overheats (it's a netgear wgt634u), but I can't find another router with the same functions as this one. In addition I purchaced it as a refurb from an ebay auction, and I'd rather get some cooling in it than pay to return it for a refund. I'm not sure how mad that sounds.

Also £16.99 is assrape for a fan, dedicated amiga retailer or not, I aint paying seventeen quid for a fan I could get for a fiver from maplin.
