Wireless-N Router Model WNR2000, restarts then and then
I have got a router, Netgear WNR2000, which have been running for some years. It suddenly started to behave strange, it seems to restart suddenly, often comes back after a while but sometime it just...
All firmware updates for your router are on the support page that gave you the first one.
If you visit the support pages:
you can feed in the model number and find all the documentation for your hardware.
There is no V1.1.5.5 for the WNR2000 (V1), so I can't telll you which page to go to.
There are five different versions of this device. You need to pick the right one. Look at the label on the thing.
I would check your modem as well. What modem are you using?
What internet speeds are you paying for? What speeds do you get over a hardwired connection?
I have a fiber connection which terminated in my house by some type of converter, not my equipment.
I have had some problem with this previously, it had to be replaced. I used want to be sure that it is not my equiopment that fail before contacting the supplier, they are quite hard to deal with, they always tries to push the problem to your equipment

I would think I have 100/100 Mbits
Does the equipment that your isp provides have an integrated router with it? If it doesn't you might have a double nat situation causing issues.
Either way, I'd look at upgrading the router. I'm not a fan of throwing out used equipment but at a certain point its needed. The one you're using is a very base level router from 2008. It was base level when it came out much less 11 years later. You'll be quite impressed if/when you upgrade to see how much better your wireless devices perform. I'd make sure to get at least a gigabit device as most fiber providers have been boosting their base level speeds and tend to be >100mbps that you're getting.
