Home routers can overheat due to components like Broadcom's BCM6765 SoC, which integrates networking functions onto a single chip. This heat generation is exacerbated by high data transmission demands. Signs of overheating include the router feeling uncomfortably hot, frequent connection drops, degraded network performance, and Wi-Fi range issues. To prevent overheating, ensure proper ventilation, keep the router away from direct sunlight and other heat-emitting devices, clean dust from vents, and update firmware. If these steps fail, a faulty power adapter or the router itself may be the cause. AI
