Will changing a router speed up my internet connection?

[domdomrys]

Well, i've got this router 2wire 1701hg gateway and i's VERY old. I'm thinking about upgrading it. Will it speed up my connection? (the router is DSL. if I buy a ADSL it should speed up my connection, right?)

Your router does not determine your connection speed; your DSL speed is limited by your provider and/or by your phone line quality and distance.
