Hi,
For the past 5 years I had the cable modem facing downstream VOIP motorola box and that was facing the netgear router (with wireless). Since my son moved out, three months ago and took the spare computer, I became a one computer owner.
I left the router in the loop, as I thought to obtain a second computer to replace what I gave away.
Yesterday, I bypassed the router, and noted a marked improvement in response times. Is it subjective? Firefox appears to works better, with what appears to be faster responses. I also noted that Firefox did not lose responses. (I had the problem with the router in place that Firefox would hang, waiting for a return response. To get that final or missing response, I had to click on the refresh button. Now, it does not seem to hang).

Any comments.
