It is entirely likely that the recent hot snap may have contributed to an exacerbation of your symptoms. In the meanwhile, you could try standing the router upright, moving it out of direct sunlight and putting a fan next to it or some other crude cooling that may be enough to keep it operational.

Personally, I'd just buy a Linksys - it might not look all Apple and trendy but it does what it says on the tin. Good luck.

You are of course quite correct, one is the low speed issue the second which compounds the problem is the issue I have described above.

The config for the cable modem needs to be posted also which I forgot to mention !
