Apoligies.

Here is my problem and this is to save me $80. My cable ISP sneakily increased
by max rate from about 220 kb/s to 550 kb/s. Most sources will not transmit
anything like that fast but those that do lock up my five year old Linksys $80
cable router so I have to reboot the router.

Single question from experience. Is this an old router problem or does it need
replacing? No remote diagnostics expected rather has anyone found this problem
or has anyone found it works even with ridiculous 550 rate?

I have no connection with any vendor or ISP. The ISP rate comes from
Time-Warner aka Roadrunner in Tampa. The rate increased with no change in price.

In any event I am looking for experience on it being a defective router or
routers are not this fast and always choke or what.
