See if it continues after Win 10 comes out ..... remember, you are supposed to roll over to Win 10 as your upgrade path.
Art, is $11 too much for a router? It is a factory refurb with a full warranty.

Now, confession time ------- I hate dealing with a new router.
A router goes everywhere, to every machine cabled to it and all the wifi boxes, phones, laptops scattered all around the house.
Get a new router and you can count on DAYS of fun getting it all switched over. Every cell phone, every laptop, every TV box, every computer.
Sometimes the fun goes even deeper as individual softwares have the router ID and password saved in their guts so they can start quicker.
All of them will show themselves before long, stopping you cold at some inopportune time just to sit there and laugh at you while you struggle to get it to changed over to the new router.
Months later, you will still be finding them (because you haven't used that particular software since you put in the new router ....)
