A new router?

I currently have a WNDR3300 wireless router and am wondering if I should upgrade the router at this ime.  It is working fine but it's about 5 years old.  Any advice or assistance is appreciated

  • Thanks for the reply and I really don't have anything other than streaming from a fires tick on my tv. Just was thinking of age for the reason to upgrade. Guess I'll let it stay as it is. Thanks again

  • Do you have any wifi equipment that would benefit from the faster wifi speeds that come with newer modems?

     

    Otherwise, why bother?

    • There is one good reason for buying a new router – to have a spare for when one dies!
