I'm on Time Warner Cable.

Model: RT31P2

I got it when I used to have Vonage (2004?) when it first came out, before their IPO, before the stupid commercials.

When do you know it's time to replace your wired router? What's the life of these things? Is this thing too old? Is it so old that it's more than likely the problem or is it my system's settings (Windows Firewall is off!)?

I keep getting booted from WoW. This is something that happens every month or so, and when it does happen it keeps happening for hours on end. My roommates however never seem to complain about losing connectivity. Are games more sensitive than say, browing the web?

Here's the one:
