I have a Netgear WNDR3700 v1, probably 8 years old I think.
My ISP connection is 200/50.
Wirelessley and gigabit ports, this router serves my purpose.
I have the latest firmware, which I think is close to 6 years old if i go by the file date on the firmware.
I have SSID visible, but have MAC filter list for approved wireless devices and WPA2.
Remote console is disabled.
If it serves my purpose, should I still consider getting it upgraded as it may not protect me from all the new attacks?
I wanted newer Asus or Netgear routers but they are close to $200 plus so I always back out as I dont really NEED the additional wifi speed. My high internal bandwidth machines are connected wired via gigabit ports. iOS devices and wifes laptop are only ones on wireless.
Thoughts and suggestions?
