netgear MR1100 hotspot overheating, solution - cooling case with fan
The Netgear MR 1100 hotspot gets hot very easily, and shuts down. I have designed and printed a Cooling case that prevents the hotspot from overheating. The fan is powered by the onboard usb a port ...
Great solution.
As a alternative suggestion should some users not have the resources to acquire this fan cooler case style part, one can put the MR on top of a small usb laptop cooler for additional cooling. Or maybe place a small usb fan pointed at the MR while in operation.
thats exactly what i was doing until i printed this case. I wanted a better solution and I love designing and 3d printing so it wasnt a waste of time. I understand most people dont have a 3d printer and are not going to build this but at least they know there is a solution is out there.
Thanks for your post.
