Do you mean smoke? Turn it off! (You won't need a router if it's about to blow up, are you using a different computer?)

Maybe just dust reaching flashpoint. Then again maybe not.

First have you cleaned/dusted out the inside of the PC casing? Dust collects round air vents till it gets so hot it ignites in the process of being blown out the vent.

If not that then operate your PC with the sides of the casing OFF and watch for anything giving off smoke. Make sure you have your finger on the "OFF" button so you can switch off in a hurry if absolutely necessary.
