What are your router temperatures? What about your ambient temperatures?

Instead of putting a handheld fan, you could try to lower the threshold the fan starts.

There are a few threads you can read up on:

How to set the fan temperature?

I have the new Slate AX router. But it gets hot and I want to change the temperature when the fan is activated. At the bottom of this thread that discusses various ways of changing that setting there is a comment from GL-inet staff saying that “temperature control is available in firmware 4.1” and therefore they locked the thread from further comments. So can anyone tell me the new and correct way of setting the fan temperature? Do I copy some of the commands in that thread (which one?) or do…

I found a way to set the gl fan!

When you commit it writes it to a config file in /etc/config - so it will be used when restarted.

Fan control workaround?

Hi first post here just got the GL-X3000 and just love it compared to my suncomm (02) box. The only gripe I have though is the fan only turns on after 158f or so. Saw a few posts on this but nothing concrete really. Has anyone figured out a solution or workaround? Got a clip on desk fan blowing on it now that drastically reduced the temps but would really like some more control over the internal. Thanks!
