I seem to average about 2 years until a router fails on me in some manner. The most recent one has lasted about 8 months. It no longer transmits the network and even a hard wired device (Roku) has no internet access. I'm pretty thorough when it comes to troubleshooting tech issues so I try everything under the sun before giving up.
My usage is fairly typical. A good deal of Internet TV, with about 8 connected devices.
I typically go mid-range when buying one. They've all been Linksys, so I guess I'm going to try another brand.
I'm just wondering if anyone else here has similar issues. I'd pay good money if I was confident in the reliability of a new router, but it seems like such a crapshoot.
