I have a Netgear WGR614 router (http://amzn.com/B00008SCFL). I can't remember when I bought it, though I know it is at least 4 years old. It's been on the market since October 2007.
Anyway, I upgraded to 30mbps cable internet, and realized that the reason I could never break 20mbps was because of the router. When I hook directly up to the cable modem, I'm fine.
Does a router's age impact performance significantly? Is there a cycle as to how long one should keep a router?
Thanks
