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!
