Default Re: Router Speed Issues

The Linksys products seem to have a lifespan of about 3-4 years. First the router craps out (about 4 years old) then about 3 weeks later the wireless access point died (about the same age). My friends have also said they've had Linksys routers die after about the same lifespan.

But hey, they're cheap and they work great when they're working, so I can't complain.

Good luck with your problem.

Awesome thanks! + Rep if I can
