Why would you need a heatsink on a wireless adapter?
And on RAM for that matter?

We actually need heatsinks for the fan motors too

touch a 2.4 or 5G wireless transmitter with your bare hands, it's pretty warm, even more so at the higher, more complex modulations that enable 1000 Mbps+ raw throughput

router is in middle of house, why would i want to waste money running a ethernet cable to my room when i get the same speeds and latency. not everyone has a gigabit connection

>t. I can rip open walls to lay phone cable (Cat5+)

The radio gets toasty

Enjoy burning your motherboard.

well its pretty easy to most rooms in all honesty. You can just get a new socket with existing power plugs and run a cable to it, no wall ripping needed.

how? my 881nd is not hot, it has no heatsink yet i can touch it with bare hands

Nu-male hipsters who try too hard to appear "hacker"

Man, even my low end 150Mbps adapter gets pretty hot, that thing has even more power.

You do know that it doesnt HAVE to go in the wall?

so you just run super long cables on the floor? or worse staple them to the wall?

How the fuck do you make a wireless hotspot for your wireless devices then?
Don't you have a dedicated desktop machine running as a router?

I agree. Idiots that don't know what a wifi cable is are the worst.
