We have always experienced lots of slowdowns / crashes ostensibly down

a general problem,(current router is a Belkin "G" MIMO that has
pathetic tiny little ventilation slots so cooks itself).


Some routers do seem to overheat if used in a horizontal position - have
you tried using it vertically to see if it runs cooler?
