Hi Marcus1981
Welcome to NETGEAR Community!
Kindly access MR1100 settings page and make sure that Ethernet Standby and WiFi Standby settings are set to disabled.
Access UI > Settings > Setup > Mobile Router Setup > Ethernet Standby (disabled or 2 minutes)
Access UI > Settings > Setup > Wireless > change WiFi Standby to Disabled.

Community Team- Para61AspirantI have the same problem and have read something about the battery and the charger causing the router to overheat. I just made the changes you suggested, hence disabled the Ethernet Standby and WiFi Standby settings. We shall see.
