Fonera router hack-update

with 2 comments

After upgrading my Fon router successfully to DD-WRT  I  have been experiencing frequent disconnects, every few hours The WiFi connection drops for a few seconds and connects back .  Some posts on the DD-WRT forum point to overheating of the router as the cause for this issue. A few people have gone so far as to drill holes and attach cooling fans to remedy the situation. I have switched back to my old router until I find a better solution( other then drilling holes in the cabinet)  to this problem.

If you have a Fon router be advised that it might heat up excessively and give poor performance if placed in a poorly ventilated spot.

  1. Time to re install http://www.openwrt.org and use Fon. With Fon you share a little bandwidth at home and you roam the world for free. Why bother hacking us?
