Routers, modems are meant to be left on at all times. 100F is 37C. Nothing is wrong with that.

Hi @mal100 welcome to the community and thanks for posting, Hubs can work up to 20c above room temperature. If your home is 21c, the Hub may be operating at 41c. This may seem hot, but is perfectly safe and normal.

As @matekaneve has mentioned 37c is fine.

Thanks

Neil
