    CWWK/Topton/... Nxxx quad NIC router

    Hi, at this point I think my posts are just noise and do not provide much useful information; in any case : after my previous post, I removed all covers from the device and only left RAM installed, attached a new PSU, strapped a 12cm fan on top pulling air, turned the device on its side and on...

    CWWK/Topton/... Nxxx quad NIC router

    Hi askewpiste, I reapplied the thermal paste, removed the m2s, removed the bottom and side covers, removed the ethernet cable and rerun the test with a desktop fan blowing on top of it. But even if that works it would be an unacceptable solution, an almost naked device that gets overheated in...

    CWWK/Topton/... Nxxx quad NIC router

    Tzvia, thank you for your reply. I just bought a 12v8a power supply, running memtest86 as we speak. Also, none of the power supplies (original or the new one) feels hot, both of them are just warm during memtest operation. I also reapplied a generous amount of new thermal paste. I've seen the...

    CWWK/Topton/... Nxxx quad NIC router

    CWWK/Topton/... Nxxx quad NIC router

    Maybe the device is fine and you're actually at the BIOS screen but cant know without a monitor or perhaps you get a BIOS error code or something, maybe the beeps are inconsequential or the reason behind them is trivial (eg. 'ram size changed press f1 to confirm change'...

    CWWK/Topton/... Nxxx quad NIC router

    Have not witnessed any such behaviour on my unit. The first time I plugged in my RAM module and powered up the device all I could see was a blank screen, no beeps ... waited a few minutes, disappointed I went on to prepare some tea and a few minutes later I heard one long beep which lasted maybe...

    CWWK/Topton/... Nxxx quad NIC router

    Thank you all for your answers. mavrrick, regarding the BIOS version, please see attached photos. I've checked out CWWK support site but there is no way for me to be sure which BIOS version is appropriate for my device or even if a newer version exists. Before buying the device I was aware...

    CWWK/Topton/... Nxxx quad NIC router

    Hi everyone ! I recently bought the CWWK N305 6-port version directly from CWWK. I've noticed folks having good luck with CRUCIAL 32GB (CT32G48C40S5) so I bought a stick. Unfortunately memtest keeps returning errors, no matter how much I play with BIOS settings. The device gets a bit hot but...
