@woozle I don't think AX 20 heats up as the AX50, broadcom chip is ARM so it should be better overral..

@Solla-topee  There is no difference. Measured temperatures varies a little bit 49 - 50 grads. And this is for plastic case. Think  now how hot is the heatsink from the inside or even the motherboard itself ( must be aditional 20 grads over 50). In time this could affect CPU soldering and the router will fail. And do not tell us that you release this router and didnt know that is very hot, and USB 3.0 works very very bad, so bad that data transfer rate is lower than USB 2.0 specs. This excuses are not acceptable. For me is the third product from your company that is under expectations and DO NOT respect your claimed specifications.

@AntonK  This intel CPU has a co-processor with aditional 4 cores designed to work separatelly only with wifi section. So, is much powerfull than looks at 2 x800 Mhz. Probably because of that is so hot.

@VA3TWT I have the same issue, and I have never heard of someone having to put a fan on a unit. Totally unnacceptable.

@Dompii Please remove the plastic foil covering the top of the router and antennas, this just makes the heating issue worse...

@Dompii The heating has nothing to do with that plastic because is not heating on top. The problem is under the router. If plastic there has ~52 degree, be shure that the aluminium heatsing from inside has over 80 degree...

My Archer AX 50 reached top temperature of 54 degree ( under the router), at 25,7 degree room temperature. This is unacceptable.
