Fortunately, the model of router it is was compatible with dd-wrt open-source firmware, which it is now running. And let me tell, it is a breath of fresh air.

I also have an open ticket, but my friends from India have come up with nothing in four days. In any case after two firmware upgrades and countless testing the only way I can get a good download is to connect to my isp directly. If I have to replace this it most definitely won't be with netgear. I’m having the same problem with my wnr3500 and that jerk on their forum site makes me crazy.

I was using the WGT624 v3 and in the last month have had issues with my downloads. I figured the router was failing. I have had no problems with this model before this. I then went and bought the Netgear WNDR3300 only to have the exact same problem. I've been leary of Linksys/Cisco, but may go that route also. I am having the same problem.
