We are currently undergoing a network software upgrade which allows us to make improvements

Wired DSL equipment or the Netgear desktop router (WGR614) unit.)
What are the benefits in upgrading to the new firmware?
- To fix several bugs from older firmware versions
- To improve the PC Card/Router connection stability
