The Actively cooled Modem/Router Club

(Yes this is not a joke)

The Actively Cooled Modem/Router Club now unofficially sponsors:
THIS GUY'S SANDWICH
We are an elite breed of bored people, that found an unused fan, and spied a conspicuously boring router.

If you want to join post in the thread with a pic of your modded out modem/router, and the type of modem/router you have. You will be added within 7 days to the list below.

As soon as i get the chance to actually install DD-WRT on my WRT54GL here and overclock that baby you will have a glorious money shot of an active cooled Router. Probably this weekend.

Unfortunately, I do not actually own the cable modem, it's a rental....

I have a WRT54GS flashed with DD-WRT and overclocked to 250 (from 200). Currently there are heat sinks (ram sinks) on the chips inside and an 80mm fan on it.

I got charged $150 for the rental, which is given back to me at the termination of my service once they come pick up the modem. I think I would rather have my $150 back.
