Model : TL-WR841N

Hardware Version : V5

Firmware Version : latest

One of my spare routers which I use as an AP is overheating like crazy! When it overheats it simply hangs or connects or disconnects from the internet. Putting it in a room with a good airflow is not an option. It used to work just fine like this before developing this issue. Is there any solution to this? I thought these routers could handle extreme heat.

Thanks!

Already have, it's fine. The router works great as long as weather stays pleasant in my locale, but when it's hot and humid it starts hanging.
