I found a way around this device by installing heatsink inside the battery space and it solved the overheating problem. This I expect netgear to do in the first place. It is a great device but the hardware design is not well thought of and it had let me down many times by throttling due to overheating. Since its maximum power is what i need and its only achievable by removing the battery. So i got this heatsink on amazon with sticky back when peeled off. i cut them into size and stick it on the inside of the battery compartment. If i need an excellent cooling I place it a USB fan as seen in the photo it will stay below 35 degree Celsius all day livestreaming not even warm.
