497489, Q about older router for router experts Posted by Acadia, Sat Jan-17-09 09:31 AM
I have a 5 year old Linksys router, model BEFSR41; that is the wired router, not a wireless. I am about to purchase a new pc and thought that this would be a good time to also purchase a new router. I went to the Linksys website and discovered that the wired model is still BEFSR41. Only difference is that I have version 3 while the latest is version 4. Now I'm thinking that I do not really need a new router. I have never done any firmware updates on my router (if any were ever created). Do I need a new router? (Yes, I changed the password long ago).
Thank you, Acadia
