Some component(s) in it have become thermo sensitive. It may be some of
the
capacitors that have become defective. If it is caps that are bad, these
can
be checked with an ESR meter. If this is a low cost router, I would
suggest
to get a new one, rather than spending time and money on fixing it.

I've fixed a few similar units, the problem in every case was a couple bad
capacitors on the output of the power supply, this is a nice simple
beginner
repair.


There are only 5 electrolytic caps in there. I'll definitely check them out.
Thank you!
