Thermal Issues With Home Internet Gateway/Router as a Cause of Dropped/Slow Internet or Wi-Fi Connection

Been there.  Done that.  Here's my public record of troubleshooting over the last few months.

I summarized my findings for easy reference here.

And I will add that my current uptime is only 3 days and 16 hours.  The last reboot I documented in my Weekly Reboot thread was probably around a week ago during a period of heavy bidirectional transfer.  But then I had to reboot a few days ago when I wasn't even on my computer.

Rebooting is annoying but I'd rather do that once a week as opposed to the issues I was having with my previous provider where a reboot did nothing.  I'm in more control now.  I'm only using T-Mobile for home internet and my phones have been on Verizon for years.  If Verizon starts offering a similar service in my area I will be quick to try it out and switch if it's more stable.
