Do you guys hear a fan on your RAX120?

Ive been having nothing but issues with this router and today noticed I dont hear the fan coming on. Do you guys? Im wondering if this thing is over heating because the fan is not working.   Thanks...

I found your post searching for fan settings as well.  My fan wasn't turning on at all and my router was very hot.  I think I found the answer after searching for a while.  I posted this on another message as well.  In your browser, type in "ip address/debug.htm".  In the middle of the page is a setting to select "Always enable Fan", check that and click apply. The setting saved for me and my fan is now on.  HOT air is blowing out, finally!

      When you type the address, replace the ip address with your routers actual address. so if you're default address is 192.168.1.1
      then you'd type 192.168.1.1/debug.htm
