RAX80 fan operation
I recently purchased a RAX80 and the cooling fan runs all the time even with no load at all.
Is this normal or is the fan designed to turn on and off when a certain temperature is reached?
Other than that and a funky power switch it’s great.

Hello digitsnbits,
To ensure there is no hardware issues with the router, I would recommend contacting support: https://www.netgear.com/support/default.aspx

I have the opposite problem my router is working very hard at the moment and the fan doesn't do a thing.
It's only 1 week old and it did work when I first turned it on but now I just noticed it is't doing anything while the router is quite warm.
Is there somewhere I can see the temperature of my router and when the fan is supposed to work?
