No idea. Mine is wall-mounted, and it was barely even warm when I
checked it this morning. I only set it up yesterday, though, so I'll
keep an eye on it. It's a nice little router!
One weird thing I noticed is that I'm unable to connect to the public
side of it from my Ubuntu laptop. The private side works, but the
public doesn't. I can connect from my Palm TX, so I know it's not a
problem with the FON box itself. I'm using NetworkManager to handle the
connections in Ubuntu. Anyone else notice this problem?
