Misc Anyone elses wifi usb connector get damn hot?

[zidanej]

I plugged it in for about a minute and when I took it out I noticed that it was pretty damn hot. Makes me wonder if anyone has had any overheating problems when going on long online sessions. Is this normal?

 

[Garouken]

It does get hot after a while. Definitly don't activate it when your not using it.

 

[wohoo]

yeah it's getting hot after a while... does it matter? ;P

meh i know what ya mean dude thought i have mine plugged in at all times but yeah im suprised it hasn't caught on fire yet

Yeah, I almost burnt my effing hand on it. Then it stopped working, and I was like forget this! So I returned it and bought a $120 linksys router with speed booster and it came with like a bajillion mail in rebates and I ended up getting it cheaper than that peice of crap Nintendo one, plus I can now play all over my house, not just right beside my computer. And Nintendo dosen't even recomend their junker, they tell you to get a third party router, they said so when I called them on three different occasions trying to get that thing to work

Mine doesn't get hot, it just gets warm, which is to be expected.
