Overheating Issues with Nighthawk RS200 Router

I'm using the Nighthawk RS200 (WiFi 7) and noticed it gets quite warm after a few hours specially when I do multitasking like TaskFlix, even in a well-ventilated room. No performance issues yet, but the heat is concerning.

Firmware: 1.0.0.34
Environment: 20+ connected devices, room temp ~22°C

Has anyone else faced similar heating issues? Is this normal for this model or should I be worried?

Thanks in advance!

  • they will generate some heat. Got a temp gun? How hot is it actually?
