Default Senao AP melting inside

This can't be good at all, the funny thing is that the AP is working OK.

I discovered this while cleaning my room last weekend, when I picked up the senao, it was draining some kind of sticky oil, and looking throught the plastic cover on the front, I can see white "glue" melted all around.

Should I contact Senao before my house becomes a nuclear hazard?

Could it be "hot glue", as in the arts & crafts kind? I can't speak for your Senao, but sometimes that's used to reinforce wires or components. Something is overheating, and I have a feeling it won't be working for much longer. Depending on when/where you bought it, I'd suggest a) try exchanging it at the store, 2) contacting Senao, 3) if bought on a credit card, contact the bank to see if they offer an extended warranty.

Years ago I had a external cable tuner box that was actually hand-soldered inside. Manufacturing techniques have improved a lot, but there's no telling how some things are assembled.

the 3054's were the only ones that had that inside (2611=no)
Its a square piece at first, when I heard of the problem, I opened and removed
these things. The other problem with the 3054 is that it always showed a 70
percent or above signal strength.
The 2611 series gave accurate signal readings.
