Hello,

More advanced features added or are running on a router will generate more heat, so it is normal when the router is getting warm or some kind of hot when it is running with heavy traffics. Please refer to the below guide to place the Archer C20 in a proper location and monitor again:

If you don't need the internet in your house, it is suggested to power the router off.
