I have a modem, router, and switch. When these guys hang out together they tend to heat up something fierce. Being a strict administrator, I decided to separate them to stop the shenanigans.
I did this for about $1.00.
Materials
There's a dollar store not far from my house that has a great selection of... well... everything. This includes cheap cooling racks.
> Cooling rack
> Wire cutters, metal file
> Thin hard surface
The Process
Step 1. Cut a wire for either side of the device you want to secure, being sure to leave a wire in between
Step 2. Bend the cut ends up at a 45 degree angle and inwards so that it can apply firm pressure on the device it's holding
Step 3. Use your file to take off any sharp edges that may have been created when you cut the wire.
Step 4. Slide the hard surface under the cut wires and over the uncut ones.
Step 5. Put your devices in the rack and rest easy!
