Attach the Fan
There
is a number of ways you can attach the fan to the top cover
but the one that will give you the most silent operation utilizes
a piece of double stick tape. Simply affix a small piece of
tape to the non moving body of the fan and attach the fan
to the inside of the top cover [Fig. 4].
The
tape must be cut small enough so there is no obstruction to
the air flow. Use caution when handling the fan. I broke my
first fan by applying too much thumb pressure on it.

You
can also see in the picture that I used a self adhesive wire
clip. This is not essential but it keeps everything clean.
Reassemble all the Pieces
Congratulations.
All you have to do now is reassemble the pieces.
Snapping
the WRT54G housing will require several medium intensity taps.
Use the palm of your hand and don't be afraid to use more
force if the pieces are refusing to snap in place. If you
are right handed you may want to hold the router in your left
hand clasping the back connectors. Use your right hand to
tap the face cover piece in place. Tap left and right corners
but avoid the middle of the router face cover.
