We now have n-type (300Mbps) and AC-type(1.3Gbps) And soon we may have 10+Gpbs for the 60Ghz band.
I say got a new router, they are getting way cheaper and more performing then before.
I was referring to the Internet service, not the wireless connection between the router and devices. That is of course much faster than 45mbps.
ETA: My current router from AT&T is a "n-type".

It's a 2Wire router that's required for Uverse. I'm going to talk to Keith about either going back to my Linksys WRT54G or getting a new rounter.

I had a 2Wire that was nothing but trouble. AT&T finally replaced it with an Arris NVG589 and haven't had any trouble since.
Well, there's another lie AT&T told us! They said only 2Wire would work on their system. I'm tempted to go back to Comcast, but everyone seems to hate them too.

Chas.
I have Uverse TV and Internet. The Internet service is 45mbps. They replaced the 2Wire with something different when I went up to 24mbps. Then when I went to 45mbps they put in what I have now. Don't remember exactly what I had with the 24mbps (think it was a Motorola) but it definitely was not 2Wire. I can remember the tech talking about how much they hate the 2wire units.
I still have the 2wire piece of junk setting in the closet (AT&T) didn't want it back. It was a 3600HGV.
