Hi,

I have a question about my router. I have a NetGear RP-614 router. When I am downloading a file using mIRC and the speeds are fast, I mean like over 200kbps, sometimes XP will freeze up on me. It only happens using mIRC, I can d/l other stuff at high speeds with no problems. After I restart after a freeze, everything works fine again.

My questions are these: Is this a common problem with routers? Are there better routers than NetGear that can handle the fast cable speeds?

Thanks
