Fan is controlled (or should be) by the settings on the Services -> Services tab, under Hardware Monitoring. Having the fan on all the time isn't a bad thing. I have a USB fan pulling air through and out the top of my WRT3200ACM 24/7.
The issue is that in recent builds, the temperature threshold settings aren't being followed for whatever reason and the fan is constantly running at full power which is very loud. Normally the fan for this router is off and only runs when under extreme load, which is why for the later iterations of the wrt1900AC the fan was removed as it's essentially overkill.
Edit: I found a bug ticket here in case anyone else has this issue

Forwarded up the food chain. For clarity, Belkin wanted to save money is the reasoning for removal of the
fan after the original WRT1900AC routers. WRT1200, 1900ACS, 3200ACM, 32X are all Belkin-era models.

okay fan is running. whats the temperature? this is no bug report. i dont know your threshold settings nor your temperatures. i assume the fan is running because the temperature limit is reached. _________________ "So you tried to use the computer and it started smoking?
