i have been using a belkin F5D7230-4 for the last 7 years , wirless function turned off(and dont want wireless in the future), have 3 peeps cabled to it.
never had a prob with it, just wondering if because it quite old i would benefit from getting a modern one.
im on the 10mb service atm, possibly considering upgrading to 20mb.
Only reason to change would be that it can't push enough data through the network ports. Without checking the specs I assume the network card is 10/100 speed in whcih case it will still do the 20 meg speed easy. On the other hand if you want to shift files swiftly within your LAN and have a need for gigabit LAN speeds then by all means upgrade.
