Speed increases when I re-power router

[Mel_P]

Hello,

I am on 8MB Virgin (cable) and never have any (noticeable) problems.

When I run a speed test after say a weeks use I get around 6MB. When I then pull the power plug out of the router (netgear) for a few seconds, and remeasure, then I get 8MB or slightly more.

? Is there some "issue" here (with my router?) WGR614 v6?

It could be a firmware update is needed? This used to happen a lot on older ones for sure, especially when using torrents or newsgroups.

I have the latest update from the netgear site already.
Thanks.
