RAX200 enforce FAN to operate

Dear All,

 

Do anyone of idea how to enforce the FAN of RAX200 to run?  Some said if will just run when boot up or in high temp, but I found it just not running while the router becomes hot.

 

So:

1. anyway to force FAN running?  checked the debug.htm in RAX200 console there are no FAN control.

2. is there anyway to check the current temperture of RAX200?

 

Regards..

  • If you're wanting a constantly running fan, I'd strongly encourage you to look at a laptop cooler. they're not very expensive, designed to run long term, and if it does burn out due to always on, its easy to replace. Versus if you turned the one on in the router and it burns out, its more expensive to replace and you have to crack the case open. 

     

    You can take a look at this thread.
