Will this router still work or should I trash it?

I found a WNR1000v2 router in a house I'm cleaning out.

Is this an item worth donating or should I just trash it?

Thanks!

       I'd probably be able to resist it if I saw one in the local thrift
    store, but, although it is old and feeble, if it works, it might be
    useful to someone.  As its Product Data Sheet says, it might beat
    something with "g" wireless.

     

       Visit http://netgear.com/support , put in your model number, and look
    for Documentation.  Get some.  Read.

     

       Or someone might want its AC power adapter.  Many things are
    possible.
