Really easy mod to lower operating temperature
First at all, I apologize for the possible inconvenients of being using english.
Secondly, and really the reason for this post: After more or less one week from WAG320N purchase, I'm really happy with this unit, but also worried for the medium/long term operation due to the really hight operating temperature of the modem router...so I discovered, after opening the unit, that Linksys did install a plastic plate between the electronics and the base of the unit blocking the air flow across the device.
With this plate removed the operating temperature was more reasonable.
It was a common sense decission: return the unit (the operating temperature is inacceptable: the electronics life is really shortened at these levels) or lose the warranty.
Regards
