Overheating installation

I had a new Sky WiFi fitted yesterday and the engineer fitted it into a corner a few inches from a large radiator and behind a desk and curtain basically boxing it in. It was because the line from the cable pole would only reach that space. It is already over heating with the radiator off! Is this something I should be concerned about - in short is it a fire risk. If it is who should I call at Sky to get it checked as there seems to be no number to speak to a person. Thanks.

@Peter273 What box are you talking about, the Fibre ONT that was installed or the sky Hub itself, two different boxes!

 

The little white box called the ONT is absolutely tepid cold to the touch so little heat is given off it.
