Surely, one of you fine folks has a better solution to attach a spare fan to an ISP gateway without damaging it? (sh.itjust.works)

Case fans are made to be attached with screws. Get the right screws and you're golden.

I made a hole on the shelf it sits on, added a grill on top and a 120mm fan below. No more crashing

Sure, But why try to fix something that works? :D

You could cut the chassis open and use thermal glue to attach a heatsink+fan combo directly to the main CPU on the chassis. Wouldn't look pretty but would probably bring temps to a more manageable point

Looks fine to me. Just make sure it can pull enough air through those tiny holes. Might need to take a drill to the white casing to open those up.
