Have I just been lucky that never need to reboot my consumer gear? I run a normal N600 (Wndr3400) netgear thing that has quite heavy load, and it basically only stops during the annual blackout...
I wish I had sketchy consumer gear so I could feel good about upgrading to this prosumer stuff, but that N600 just blankets my 2 storey house with wireless with ease, and never fails it seems :/ First world problems.
Same here. AT&T's 2wire residential gateway worked great for me for 5+ years until the wifi could no longer get the job done from upstairs in one corner of the house to the xbox downstairs in the other corner. I added a more powerful WNDR3700 in the same spot and was back in business.
