Routers/D7000 Failing?
Hello guys,
I've had a D7000 v1 for a few years (5+?) and recently I've found that devices will randomly disconnect (WiFi or ethernet). I'm unable to reconnect until I give the router a power-cycle, after which it will work again for a few days.
This seems to be happening with more frequency recently. I've never had a router this long before, so my question is;
Do routers tend to 'fail' after years of use? Is it reasonable to assume after 5 years a new router is required?
Any help appreciated!

What firmware version do you have on your modem/router?
What do the LEDs on the D7000 look like when this happens?
This is a modem/router. Is that how you are using it? Or have you bypassed the modem bit?
