E4200 - Gets hot after prolonged use

Pros: Nice looking. Can turn the back port lights off (but can't turn the glowing white Cisco light off).
Cons: Gets hot (to me) after prolonged use, so I have a side propped up on a coaster pending buying some padded feet for it. Web interface slower to load than expected.
Using with my Dell XPS M1530 with Intel 4965AGN wireless card. Foot away from my router I get about 12MB/sec (about 100mbps). Only saving grace is the range appears to be excellent in my 2000 sq ft townhouse. Router is in one corner 2nd-floor bedroom, and even at the furthest point away in my basement I get about 6 MB/s (about 50 Mbps).
Other Thoughts: Used to stream ISO rips of my legally purchased DVDs & Blu-Rays from my home server to my TVs. DVDs require about 1 MB/s to play without hiccups, which this does fine, but the blu-rays require 5-6 MB/s which this unit can do about 90% of the time. Maybe it's just my approximately 4-year old laptop wireless that can't handle the new speeds?

Did you try changing any settings like the wireless channel manually? Also, if you haven’t already done so, you could try a firmware update. Lots of the initial kinks are usually ironed out with a firmware update.

  • Why my iPad get hot after 30min use?

    Why my iPad get hot after 30min use?

    The iPad should not get hot after 30 minutes of use. The new iPad will get warmer that the other two iPads did, but it should never get hot.
    If you are playing a HD graphic intense game or watching a HD movie it will get warmer than it does when you are just surfing the web or doing basic functions in word processing apps, or writing emails a but it should still never get hot.
    Is your iPad brand new or has this been going on for a while?

  • Audio Meters "peak indicator" gets stuck after prolonged use of Premiere Pro CC.

    Does anyone else have this issue? After using Premiere for a while (maybe an hour or so straight) the audio meters peak indicator will not reset when you start/stop. What do I mean? If your audio level peaks or goes into the red, it stays there like it should letting you know that the levels had hit above +0db. This is normal. This is good. But usually when you stop the timeline and start again, that red peak indicator is reset and disappears. But for me, after prolonged use (which is say about an hour or so), the meters stop resetting and the red does not go away unless I click on the meter to make it disappear. It looks like this even after stopping/starting the timeline:
    ***Meters work fine for the first 30mins - hour or so of editing. Hitting stop and then start again resets the meters as it should.
    ***Eventually the peak indicator (see screenshot above) gets stuck and won't go away. The meters continue to work fine, but the red does not go away.
    Only way to then reset it is by clicking on the meter itself. Restarting Premiere Pro CC will put everything back to normal again and it should work fine again...for a while...before its starts to lock up again. This issue was present in 7.0.0 as well as the newly updated 7.0.1  I'm on a 2011 27" iMac with 16gb of RAM. (I've submitted a bug report, but curious if this happens to others.)

    Maybe it's just you who has that much clipping audio.  Most of us tend to avoid that.
    #Layers
    As much as I wish all my audio were perfectly leveled at all times... You mix live weddings with DJ's that don't know their own equipment with layers of audio in post and its a recipe for some +0db audio.
    In all seriousness, I do hope that if others see this bug, they'll chime in and that this bug gets fixed. It's annoying.

  • My iPad 2 just started getting hot after brief use.  What is it?

    I have had my iPad 2 for 3 years, never had a problem.  It just started getting very warm after using it for just a short time.  Is this something that needs to be resolved immediately?  Would an Apple store be able to help me?

    Glad that was it, simple fix!
    Don't be too quick to blame your granddaughter, the brightness control is very easily changed from Control Center with just an errant tap or swipe, and I swear it moves on its own sometimes

  • My bb10 gets hot after continuous use

    hi,
    is there any fix, my z10 gets very hot while i am using any of its applications for over 10 minutes.

    I've seen a few other posts of this type.
    Batteries do generate heat in use, but excessive heat is abnormal.
    If you feel the heat is too much, O2 should be notified and have the issue escalated up to BlackBerry support.

  • Safari problem after prolonged use.

    Right heres my current annoyance with my iPhone 3G, taken from my actual phone:
    http://i35.tinypic.com/1zwlpv9.jpg
    Browsing the web via Safari is usually a joy for the first 10 minutes or so continual use. I get no errors, no timeouts and speeds are near enough as quick as my 20mb cable connection whilst browsing on my MacBook.
    However, after prolonged use of Safari, I start getting the above error almost every time I click on a link or try to change website. If I click on the link enough it will eventually load though. Not only that, as you can see from the screenshot above of Facebook, you can see Safari will change the font and the layout so it looks like the above. Images also wont load. Turning the phone off and rebooting seems to cure it.
    I was hoping 2.0.1 and more recently 2.0.2 would fix this but its still there more than ever.
    To combat the problem, I hard reset the phone, did a full restore to 2.0.2 and set up a new phone profile but still got the same problem after prolonged use.
    Anyone have the same problem or even better, a solution? Im starting to think I have a fault with my iPhone.

  • Is it normal for iPad to get hot after 30 min usage?

    Hi,
    well after thirty minutes or so my iPad 1 starts getting hot and temperatures continue to increase ..
    This also happens while charging.
    I just wanted to know if this is normal ..

    My iPad (1st Gen) does get a little warm to but not 'hot', even after more than an hour of usage.
    Are you using it outdoor in direct sunlight or in a 'hot' closed environment/room?
    Having aluminium/metal casing, it might radiates heat more readily than plastic/glass coverings when subject to warmer than normal ambient temperature.
    Otherwise, if it is still under warranty (or AppleCare) I would suggest making appointment with the Genius Bar at an Apple Store. It might be a faulty product.
