Check to see if the router/wifi is over heating? (Wreaks havoc on my end)

Anyone ever try this before? I've been wanting to do this for years as it seems like a better solution than buying a router very 2-3 years. |
Seems like an interesting solution. Can upgrade to new wireless technologies as they come out, just by adding a new card.
Biggest issues I see are power consumption and space. A router uses far less power than a PC, especially an older one with a likely worn out PSU, and a router is tacked to the wall or piled on top on if your modem somewhere, taking up no space.
Overall, makes more sense to get a good business class router / wireless access points.
