Excessive fan noise

Is there a way to reduce the fan noise on the SRX5308?  While running very cool, the fan noise is excessive and cannot be used in a quiet office environment.

Hi techmusic247,

 

Welcome to the community!

 

SRX5308 doesn't have any options to reduce the fan speed. It seems that this is already a hardware issue and I believe that this has a lifetime hardware warranty, then I may suggest you to please create a chat / case online on NETGEAR support and please let them know the status of your firewall so that an online replacement will be provided.

 

Regards,
