Loud fan/noise on WOW Arris Gateway

Guys I just want to pick your brain on this one.

I just ditched Comcast and signed up on WOW's Ultra TV. So far so good. Good signals and speed. Good wifi range.

.. but that Gateway fan is really loud. Annoying!! I have a 6 core desktop next to it and it's whisper quiet compared to the Arris Gateway.

Anybody has any suggestions. Does that thing go to sleep? Is there a way to lower that fan's RPM?

Thanks in advance.

ours was originally in my office since thats where the modem was. the gateway was so loud and put off so much heat that i relocated it into our basement.

Mine went straight to the basement after about 2 days of listening to it. The fan never stops !

My relative has it in their guest room. It is very loud and bright. I just got used to it. At night, it's not as loud since it's generally not recording or doing much. It also gives a little light so you see where you're going at night
