I doubt that it should, if it's on top of something.  It'd be a
different matter if you had hot air out of the computer box blowing on
it, but the modem ought to be built well enough that it cools adequately
in free air.

I doubt it's actually on your CPU, though.  ;-)  The Central Processing
Unit is a chip (or more than one chip) on the motherboard.  The entire
computer box isn't a CPU.
