I have a 3com USB adapter that seems to get very hot. I know thay are meant to get warm, but this one gets very toasty.
When it is a hot day (75 F + inside) my connection to my router occasionally drops. I find that I can unplug the adapter, cool it down (for 1 min) then reconnect it and the connection reestablishes itself. Maybe 20 mins later it drops again and I have to go through the same process.
The reason I think its heat related is that I only have this problem when its very warm (75 F +). Also the kids PC doesnt seem to have this problem and their USB adapter is a different make.
Could heat be the issue with this adapter?
TIA
