You're talking about thermal paste, right? I wouldn't doubt they use cheap everything. The fan solution works very well. The router stays cool all the time. I wish there were more options for cable router combos on the market. There are very few and they all suck.

I chose to use a 2 box solution. In my case a Netgear modem, which just seems to just work, and a different box for router. Gives more flexibility. Should I want to replace, say the router, I don't have to look for a modem router combo to satisfy my new need. Also, should say the modem part fails, again I got to look for a modem/router solution where with the two box just get a new modem.
