Why is my router suddenly slow?

"Hi @fayazbhai ,

Try installing the latest firmware in case the current firmware has become corrupted somehow.

Click on the firmware version 1.2.32 link and then on Release notes to view the installation procedure before clicking on the Download link.

Hi @fayazbhai ,

Have you tried changing the cable between the modem and the router?

Also check that the router's power adapter is supplying 12V DC

Have you tried to 'reset' the connection using the method below?

1. Turn off the modem.

2. Turn off the wireless router and your computers.

3. Turn on the modem and wait until it has finished initializing.

4. Turn on the wireless router and wait until it has finished initializing.

5. Turn on the computers.

Glad that you got it working OK

Cheers"

"If you are really using a a WGR614v9, I would strongly suggest a better router.

Netgear is a great company, but that specific line of router is not.

Note that it is 'v9', which means they don't bother fixing issues properly. Rather, they just release a new hardware version hoping old problems go away, but new problems are introduced.

If you like Netgear, get one of their nighthawks, or TPlink AC1900, Asus, etc.

Also, unplug your cable/dsl modem and router for a few minutes then plug it back in. Your speed will probably improve temporarily."

"Some reason your network becomes slowly:

Internet thieves: if your network password is simple, there could be more people tapping it.

Congestion: Reduce congestion if multiple things are connected to Wi-Fi.

Use the router security - WAP2 with AES.

You’re too far out of range"
