I have a D-Link DI-604 rev. E router, which I use as a firewall for my Sony VAIO desktop running Windows XP Pro SP2. It's flashed with the latest firmware, and most of the settings are at their defaults (the exceptions being a few opened ports for DCC, and MTU 1490.) Windows Firewall is off.
Since I last rebooted the router (after changing the MTU,) I've noticed that my Internet speed has been slowly but steadily degrading, and it's now at 50 kilobits per second. (For comparison, before I installed the router, I was getting around 1 megabit per second.) Is there a way to improve my performance without regularly rebooting my router? Thanks.
