Wouldn't mind seeing your router statistics if you would be so kind @Mardoxx.

Certainly does appear your speedtest results far exceed what your router stats say you connect at. Thanks for the info.

And nope, I didn't know about the capacitors issue with netgear, Had one which i'm pretty sure has done a few thousand hours (at least!!) and admittedly it still works pretty well.
