Do you mean over heating to the touch?
I use my SMC router to keep my feet warm. I leave it on the floor and it get crazy hot. But havn't lost the commnication.
Are you losing computer transfer or just the switch?

There are two (important) lights on the router: the WAN light and the SWITCH light ... the switch light keeps going out ... whenever the unit gets excessively hot... i think i solved it now (put two fans on/in it)... was just wondering if anyone ever encountered a similar problem

Praetor, I have not had THAT problem, but I did have a problem due to stupidity. I live out in the country, on a lake. We have had cable television since we moved here 12 years ago. Our cable system finally got broadband up and running right before Christmas. I was the first one to get connected to the system. LOL
At any rate, I have 2 computers networked, so I got a Linksys router (WRT54G). I did not realize that they got a tad warm. For Christmas, one of my nieces gave me a box of chocolate covered cherries. lol She knows that I love them. I had them sitting by my computer and for whatever reason, put them on top of my router. The next morning, when I got up, I happened to see them sitting there, opened up the box, and they were all melted. LOLLOL
Dumb, true story, but I learned that routers do give off heat. :)

Since at home all I have is dialup, a modem one I was thinking of. But were too expensive and didn`t seem to work the way I wanted. Atleast the print server on it works, for all 5 of my computers :)
