@hannahhhb96: Part 2 of DIYing an ✨aesthetic✨ cover for my WiFi router! Final reveal coming next! #DIY #diyproject #wifiroutercover *I’m obvs not a professional and don’t know how safe this is, so please proceed at your own risk! I also ended up raising the books so the router and outlet have enough clearance. They are definitely too short in this part!

Destroying books, making a firehazard with the books, limitting wifi signal by covering it

hannahhhb96 :

🚨I’M NOT USING THIS ON MY WIFI ROUTER ANYMORE! Thank you for all the concern (although some have a very weird & rude way of showing it 😳). I’ve been cognizant of the safety and WiFi signal concerns from the start and I think enough people have made it clear, but if you think this will cause a fire or damage your signal, use it for something else. And if you think it’s ugly or have an issue with cutting books, don’t do it 😁 You do you, boo.

Suedonim :

Perfectly flammable insulation for a device that risks overheating 😳

Viktorija :

this will 100% mess with your signal

elvee_em :

I swear to god why can they just not make routers that don't look like nasa space equipment. like give me a sage green book shaped router without the blue led eyesore

Ladyinabackpack :

did u ruin these books...

Morefunwithbears :

Creativity good, covering up electronics with flammable stuff not so good. Maybe put some layers of tinfoil on the inside

Humineral1 :

Lot of fire hazard experts in the comments 😂

África :

Soy la única que piensa que eso puede echar a arder???

Luis Alfonso Jasp113 :

Did you know that routers need proper ventilation to prevent overheating?

˗ˏˋ OILED UP MAN ˎˊ˗ :

but why ?

Troytroytroy :

Engineer here. So this probably isn’t a big fire hazard, your biggest concern would just be the router burning itself out. The internal materials will likely get way too hot and the router will no longer work. Don’t do this, it’s not smart

colinmcpole :

Who is going to tell her? 😂😂😂

Karolinka :

i’m too european for this

t :

And now you’re just blocking the signal and causing it to over heat lol

Tantaburs :

People calling this a fire hazard are overreacting quite a lot. However restricting airflow will lead to worse performance and shorter lifespan but is quite fixable. Cut the pages from the top of the books and replace them with a white plastic mesh that maintains airflow. Won't look as nice as the book tops but it's a good middle ground

Angel :

Alr now put ac and vent on there

Miłosz Rabus :

Noooooiiii!!! The router will overheat and the connection will be weakened

Remy916 :

what if someone wants to read one of those books?

datongan676 :

the authors: 👁👄👁

Psych Survivor :

As a book lover, my heart just broke😟

I fear people who don’t fear electrical fires

Bridge🌞 :

Will it effect the connection at all?
