By the way, you emailed this to me as well. I understand Google have
recently made it rather too east to accidentally tick a "Cc" box when
posting.
(It's also making you do double line spacing.)

The router puts off a lot of heat and it has no fan.
I used a 12 V power supply fan to make a custom fan.
So far so good.
Why a 12V fan - is it running from the router's own supply? (Is that
12V?)

The fan is running off a transformer. 120 VAC - 12 V DC.
I made a stand for it and mounted it.
Ah, I see. (I'd been concerned that running it from the router's own
supply would _add_ to the heat problem [like those laptop fans that run
from a USB].)
I save transformers from things I salvage.
You mean power supplies (a transformer only converts AC to AC).
A lot of times I will use it to power some battery powered devices if
portability isn't needed.
Good policy.

"Bother," said Pooh, as he fell off the bridge with his stick.
Sorry about sending it accidentally.
I am still not used to the new google.
