   I loved my old D-Link router.   
   A thunderstorm got it years ago.   
      
   Since then I had a netgear POS and a CISCO SOHO router - a rebadged   
   linksys I think - that was good but the Draytek I now have is even better.   
      
   Unlike many feature rich routers, the draytek has a sanely organised   
   user interface and the advanced features actually work...   
      
   I have a friend who is computer illiterate and cannot understand why his   
   BT supplied router needs power cycling every few weeks.   
      
   My Draytek has never needed it. Neither did the Cisco.   
   Moral. Get a decent router so at least you can eliminate it from your   
   problems
