That's pretty much where I'm going on this matter. The feedback from 
this thread is making me remember other things happening that I sort of 
ignored that had increased in frequency in recent times. When I add them 
up it makes more sense to me. Time to upgrade. Anyone know who makes the 
ASUS routers? I've seen one that was recommended on the DD-WRT forum (or 
there about) and it looks like I think Trendnet, not sure.
